Software Installation
5.1
Software Driver Installation
The 4U Value 5-slot expansion unit requires no driver on Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows Server, Linux, Unix, Centos and Mac
OS, which means no installation of software is needed. The only software / driver you would need to install is for the add-in card (your PCIe
card).
Before attempting to install anything on a Windows system, you should ensure that you have set a Restore Point, that all data files are closed
and that you have a current backup of your data.

Click the ‘+’ sign several times until your reach a PCI Express Root Port Complex with PCI Express standard
Upstream Switch Port and PCI Express standard Downstream Switch Port.
When installed properly, you will see five PCI Express standard Downstream Switch Ports below each PCI Express standard Upstream Switch
Port. When two 457 boards are attached to one host computer, you will see a total of ten PCI Express standard Downstream Switches.
