Installing the NIC
Observe the precautions listed in “Safety Precautions”
earlier. Verify that the PC is unplugged. Unpack and inspect
the NIC as described in “Inspecting the NIC” earlier.
To install the NIC in the PC, follow these steps:
1 Remove the computer cover.
Refer to the PC manufacturer’s documentation
if necessary.
2 Select an available bus mastering PCI slot and
remove its expansion cover plate.
3 Insert the NIC in a PCI-bus slot that supports
bus mastering.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to install the 3C339 NIC in
an ISA or EISA slot. Doing so may damage the NIC and
the computer. The 3C339 PCI NIC works only in a PCI-bus
slot that supports bus mastering. Check the computer
manufacturer’s documentation to determine which PCI
slots support bus mastering and which are target slots
(sometimes called slave slots).
