Step 3 Installing the Hardware
For using an expansion PC card under Windows, you have to let the OS detect the I/O addresses and IRQ
to be used by the PC card. The process is referred to as installing the hardware.
In the case of using two or more PC cards, make sure you install one by one with the Found New
Hardware Wizard.
Turning on the PC
Turn on the power to your PC.
CAUTION
-
The PC card cannot be properly installed unless the resources (I/O addresses and interrupt level) for
the PC card can be allocated. Before attempting to install the PC card, first determine what PC
resources are free to use.
-
The resources used by each PC card do not depend on the location of the PC card slot or the PC Card
itself. If you remove two or more PC cards that have already been installed and then remount one of
them on the computer, it is unknown that which one of the sets of resources previously assigned to
the two PC cards is assigned to the remounted PC card. In this case, you must check the resource
settings.

Select “Install from a list or specific location[Advanced]”, then click on the [Next] button.
