I'm sure there are instructions somewhere, but I can't find them. It's pretty easy though:
  1. Download and install Arduino 0011 for your operating system here (Make sure it's 0011, not another version)
  2. Copy the code for the MPGuino V.75 (Available here
  3. Plug in the MPGuino via the USB port
  4. Run the Arduino program, and copy the code into the main space
  5. Set the port by clicking Tools -> Serial Port -> COM X, where X is the port you plugged the MPGuino into. Mine was COM 4, it could be any number.
  6. Click the 'Upload to I/O board' in the Arduino program
  7. If it uploads properly, it'll say so at the bottom of the program, something like Upload complete, sketch size xxxx bytes.

That's it. If you're on a Mac, then for some reason, the file will be too large, and you'll have to delete a little bit from the MPGuino code. You should be fine on Windows though.
