2.
Turn off the computer and the power for all external
devices (monitor, printer, etc.).
3.
Disconnect all cables from the rear of your
computer to give you more room to work. Note
where each cable connects so you can reconnect it
after installing the Typhoon card.
4.
Remove the cover mounting screws on the
computer. If necessary, refer to your system
instruction manual for information on removing the
computer cover.
5.
Carefully remove the cover from the computer. The
system motherboard should now be in full view.
To install your Typhoon card, perform the
following steps:
1.
Remove any previously installed graphics card(s)
from the system.
2.
Locate an available PCI expansion slot or an AGP
slot for the Typhoon card, depending on which
Typhoon card you have purchased. If necessary,
remove the expansion slot cover and partner screw
using the appropriate tool.
⌦
WARNING! The Typhoon is static sensitive. To
avoid damage to the card from static
electricity, ground yourself before handling
the card by touching the metal frame on your
computer. This dissipates any static
electricity and prevents damage to sensitive
components.
3.
Hold the Typhoon card by its top edge and slide it
into the available slot. The PCI bus or AGP bus
interface should fit into the slot. Make sure the
Typhoon card is firmly seated in the slot.
4.
Once the Typhoon card is correctly seated in the
slot, secure it with the partner screw.
