# PicoSystemInfoNesLoader | ||
|
||
## What is it. | ||
A Windows companion app for the [PicoSystem_InfNes NES emulator](https://github.com/fhoedemakers/PicoSystem_InfoNes), running on a [Pimoroni PicoSystem](https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/picosystem). | ||
|
||
Because there is no SD card available, this application lets the user choose NES roms from the local file system and flash them to the PicoSystem. | ||
|
||
It is also possible to flash a new version of the Emulator to the PicoSystem. | ||
|
||
The application is tested in Windows 11 x64. The application should also work on a 32 and 64 bit versions of Windows 10. | ||

## Driver installation | ||
|
||
In order for the app to communicate with the PicoSystem an USB driver is needed. The app can detect whether the driver needs to be installed. The driver then can be installed from within the application. Installation can take some time. | ||
