This guide contains general instructions for installing the Tango FireWire/USB
combo card into most PCI-based computers. (For our example, we have used an
Apple Power Macintosh desktop model.) For more detailed installation instruc-
tions, refer to your computer’s user guide.

Shut down your computer.

Disconnect all the cables connected to the computer except for the power
cord, then touch a port access cover on the back of your computer to dis-
charge any static.
3.
Disconnect the power cord from your computer.
4.
Remove the case cover from the computer

Locate an available PCI slot inside your computer and remove its port access
cover, if present, from the rear of the computer.

screw, set it aside for later use.
7.
Remove the Tango from its anti-static package, making sure to handle the
board by its edges.

Install the Tango into the PCI slot;
make sure the card is firmly seated and
secured (Figure 4)
