Depends on the amBX software.
Download the amBX software: http://www.usa.philips.com/c-p/SGC5101BD_27/ambx-starter-kit/support
or get it from here.
It gets attached as well in case the download link will be dead in the future.

  1. Install the amBX software first: https://www.reddit.com/r/ambx/comments/4500hx/philips_ambx_windows_10_x64_working/
    1.1. Do not connect the hardware yet.
    1.2. Install the amBX kit from the official page.
    1.3. Updates won't work.
    1.4. Open the Device Manager and click on your computer to activate it, then from the "Action" menu choose "Add legacy hardware".
    1.5. Click to choose the hardware from the list, then Have Disk, and navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\amBX\Hardware" and choose either of the two .inf entries.
    1.6. Connect the amBX hardware. It will fail to install. To install the device driver, click "Update driver" at the unknown device and again Have Disk (still "C:\Program Files (x86)\amBX\Hardware").
  2. Unzip Aurora Synesthesia anywhere and just launch it and it will work.
