Card installation
•
Note!
When the PCI card is being installed, it is very important
that the computer is shut off.
• Computer parts are very sensitive to static electricity. Keep the
parts in the anti-static bags that they came with until the time
they are ready for installation.
• Use an anti-static wristband and earth it when installing. If you
don’t have an anti-static wristband you can do this instead:
Hold the computer case before, during and after installation.
1. Shut off the computer and all connected units and pull out the
plug to the computer.
2. Open the computer case and so that the motherboard
becomes accessible.
3. Install the PCI card in a vacant PCI port. Do not press the card
too hard while installing since the motherboard can be damaged.
4. Secure the card with a screw or other compatible fastening
device. The PCI card ´s contacts should fit evenly in the slot
when properly installed.
5. Re-assemble the computer case (being careful that no wires
are obstructing).
6. Install the drivers etc.
Installation
Note!
The following instructions are for Windows XP installed
with service pack 2. Small differences can occur depending
on user’s settings.
Windows XP will find and install the network card automatically
when the computer is turned on. No external drivers needed.
