3.1 Configuring the Modem Card
Please carry out the following steps
BEFORE
installing your modem card.
MR8800-U modem needs to be configured as either
Primary
or
Secondary
device before you can proceed to install the card on your PC.
To determine the choice of configuration, you need to refer to the BIOS Setup
details on your Motherboard User’s Manual. Check for the presence of AC’97
Audio** setting in the BIOS Setup. (Note that not all motherboards will support
AC’97 Audio).
a)
If AC’97 Audio is present, (that is you can see it in the BIOS Setup of your
motherboard User’s Manual), you may configure your card as either
Primary
or
Secondary
device.
i)
If AC’97 Audio is Enabled, you must configure your card as a Secondary
device.
ii) If AC’97 Audio it Disabled, you must configure your card as a Primary
device.
(See the following page on -

If AC’97 Audio is not present (that is you cannot see it in the BIOS Setup of
your motherboard User’s Manual), you must configure your card as
Primary
device. (See the following page on -
