Are you installing
your Fire GL 8700 in
place of a card from
another
manufacturer?
Before you install your Fire GL 8700
card, we recommend that you first
uninstall the the driver for your current
graphics card.
Windows NT 4.0: Reconfigure your
operating system to use the standard
display driver (VGA). For more
information about changing to the VGA
driver, see your operating system
documentation.
Do you have an
integrated graphics
solution on the
motherboard?
Please refer to the manual or contact
your motherboard manufacturer to
determine how to disable your on-
board graphics.
Plug-n-Play?
The card has been designed to take
advantage of 'plug–n-play' without
requiring additional hardware
installation or configuration.
