Got my new saffire pro 40 - Need a little help installing

The paper work that came with it says.
"Saffire Pro 40 - Getting starting
1. Insert the installer disk
2. Double click "Install Saffire Pro40
3. follow on screen intructions to install software and drivers
... "
 
I have 2 disks that came with it. One is "saffire range resources CD" which does say insert this disc to get started...
The other say Xcite pack+samples.   Neither have anything that says install saffire pro 40 on them?
 
There is the installer for mix control and the included VST's but nothing on actually installing the pro 40.
 
Any helpis appreciated because everyone is closed til monday or tuesday....   btw  HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

    I have a Pro 40.  All you need is the Saffire Mix Control install which will also install the drivers.  Actually, go to the Focusrite site and download the latest Mix Control and it will also install the drivers.  There is a firmware update for the Pro 40 too and if it's needed the Mix Control will flag that so you can install it.   http://www.focusrite.com/products/saffire/saffire_pro_40/

    The Xcite pack is loops and samples. 

    Happy New Year.  I'm in Inverness

    Thank you fireberd!  That helped a lot.   It seems to be working and I installed mix control too.  I still need to install all the plugs yet but I will.

    The only issue I see is the pro 40 doesn't pull up as a midi device.   Ot sure about that but I will figure it out next year, I am off to PARTY!!!
