Option Card Problems

Make sure the option card is installed correctly and is
well-seated in its slot. Run SETUP to update your configuration
after you install the card. If you are using Windows 95, turn on
the Reset Configuration

o p t i o n . S e e “ S t a r t i n g t h e
Setup Program” and “Using the Advanced System Setup
Options” in Chapter 2 for instructions. Perform setup
procedures for any software you are using with the card.
See the documentation that came with the option card to set
any necessary DIP switches or jumpers on the card. If you
installed a video adapter on an option card, make sure you
disabled the built-in VGA controller by changing the setting of
jumper JP2; see “Changing the Jumper Settings” in Chapter 4
for more information.
Make sure you install option cards that do not exceed the
system’s power supply limits; see “Option Slot Power Limits”
in the Appendix for more information.
Make sure the option card is not touching any other card or
component on your main system board.
If you installed a PCI card, check to see that the PCI options in
SETUP are set correctly for your card. For more information,
see “Configuring PCI devices” in Chapter 2.
An external device connected to the option card is not
working correctly.
Make sure you are using the proper cable to securely connect
the device to the card.
