4.1 Preparation for Hardware Installation
The Prodigy X-Fi NRG PCIe card and other components in the computer can be damaged easily by
electrical shock. You should use an anti-static device that can discharge the static electricity of your
body to avoid potential static damage to the cards. If you do not feel capable of installing a PCIe
card into your computer please contact a computer specialist.
Turn off the computer power and remove the power cable from your computer power supply.
