  1. C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools
  2. C:\Program Files\Codebox\BitMeter\BitMeter2.exe

  4. Blank
  5. Blank
  6. Your Administrator Account
  7. Your Administrator Password

  2. Expand "Services and Applications"
  3. Click on Services
  4. In the right payne right click on BitMeterII and choose "Start"
