: : Risk of equipment damage
Before removing a NIC, attach an earth ground to the PC chassis. If an
earth ground is unavailable, ensure that the power is switched off and
plug in the PC's grounded AC power cord.
Wear an anti-static wrist strap when handling ROMs. As an additional
measure, do not touch the ROM's connectors. Leave the ROM in its
conductive foam packaging when not in use.
1. If you are installing MBA on a NIC that is already in your PC, remove the NIC from the
PC. If you are not familiar with inserting and removing cards in your PC, refer to your
NIC user guide for instructions.
2. Locate the boot ROM socket on your NIC. You may need to refer to the NIC's user guide
to locate the correct ROM socket.
3. Depending on your NIC, you may have either a DIP socket (rectangular socket with two
rows of pins), or a PLCC socket (small, square socket with pins on all sides). Follow the
applicable procedure for either the DIP Socket Installation or the PLCC Socket
Installation, then follow the procedure Installing the NIC into the PC.
DIP Socket Installation
The DIP socket should have a notch that can be indicated by a small half circle, a small
triangle, or a small indentation at one end of the socket. The circuit board may also have a
white rectangle around the socket which should have a notch indicated at the same end. This
notch indicates the Pin 1 end of the socket. See Figure 2.
