Viewsonic has suggested to using myViewboard instead of vBoard or vBoard Lite as they are phasing it out.  The software can be downloaded from:

1. When you go to this site you will see the following:
   
2. Click on the "myViewBoard for Windows 64 bit" link to download the software.
3. During installation, you will be asked to enter an email address for Activation purposes.  Enter staff members email address.
4. After the install is completed the staff member will get an email that contains a link to Activate the software.
5. Once it says Activation is successful you MUST login to the account using their Google credentials.  On the myViewBoard website, when you activate the software, it will take you through set up of the staff member's "account".
