No. That was one of things that XLR8 really touted. They called it 'virtual firmware' It is stored on the daughter card itself, not on your computer. Innovative way of doing it. This is the reason why when you first install an XLR8 upgrade, your computer restarts after only a few extensions have loaded. It loads the firmware then and restarts your machine.
