9. Inside the downloaded CMSIS zip, go into the CMSIS-Atmel/CMSIS folder, you should see a folder named Device. *DRAG THE DEVICE FOLDER ONLY* from the zip to your arduino Library folder so that Device is merged with Device. It will replace a bunch of files.

12. On Windows 7 you will also need to install the updated serial driver, download https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Windows_Drivers/archive/master.zip to get all the drivers, and point the Device Manager to the unzipped folder. It isn't signed, so just approve the installation manually.
