Step 1
Hardware Installation
The card must be installed on the computer’s mainboard. Since this is an electrical device,
safety is important. First, properly shutdown the computer and unplug the computer’s power
cord. Touch an unpainted screw on the back of the power supply with the tip of your
screwdriver to discharge any static electricity and prevent possible damage to the card and
computer components. Open the computer’s case.
Insert the card into an open PCI slot. Insert the card straight in and gently push straight down
until it seats firmly and has good connection. Screw the bracket on the back of the card to the
case so the card is firmly held in place.
Put the case back on the computer and plug the power cord back in. The physical installation
of the card is now complete.
