How to start with new X2 Receiver?

[wen]

too late
I was going to say play with the original firmware 1st

Thanks dr.zin. I had already played with it for several months and had discovered the sat/xponder list was not up to date. I hoped someone could shed a little light on my last question:

Will the X2 EZ-Manage Tool Editor and X2 Premium Editor be helpful and install on my Windows XP computer?
