Docking your Solo 9300 for the first 
time

The first time you connect your Solo 9300 notebook to its docking station, 
you may need to make several adjustments to system settings. Complete the 
following tasks in order:

Install docking station drivers

Restore video resolution (in Windows 95)

Adjust audio settings

Installing docking station drivers

You must install the docking station’s modem, network, and other drivers the 
first time you dock your notebook.

 To install docking station drivers:

1

Turn on and set up your notebook as shown in the setup poster, without 
attaching it to the docking station.

2

Turn off your notebook, then disconnect the power cord.

3

Connect the power cord to the docking station, then dock your notebook 
as shown in the user’s guide.

4

Turn on your notebook. Windows starts and the New Hardware Found 
(PCI Bridge) dialog box opens.

Important

Do not install a PC Card or PCI card in the docking station 
until after you complete this first-time setup. However, if a 
PCI card has already been installed by Gateway, do not 
remove it.
