2.3 Hardware Installation
Make sure you have installed the driver first before you install the card
(please refer to
2.2 Driver Installation ).
After the Device Drivers installation is completed, you can then install
the PCI-1724U card into any PCI slot on your computer. However, it is
suggested that you refer to the computer user’s manual or related docu-
mentation if you have any doubt. Please follow the steps below to install
the card onto your system.
1.
Turn off your computer and unplug the power cord and cables.
TURN OFF your computer before installing or removing any com-
ponents on the computer.
2. Remove the cover of your computer.
3. Remove the slot cover on the back panel of your computer.
4. Touch the metal part on the surface of your computer to neutralize
the static electricity that might be on your body.
5. Insert the PCI-1724U card into a PCI slot. Hold the card only by its
edges and carefully align it with the slot. Insert the card firmly into
place. Use of excessive force must be avoided; otherwise, the card
might be damaged.
6. Fasten the bracket of the PCI card on the back panel rail of the
computer with screws.
7. Connect appropriate accessories (62-pin cable, wiring terminals,
etc. if necessary) to the PCI card.
8. Replace the cover of your computer chassis. Re-connect the cables
you removed in step 2.
9. Plug in the power cord and turn on the computer.
Note: In case you installed the card without installing the
Device Drivers first, Windows 95/98/ME will recog-
nize your card as an “unknown device” after
rebooting, and will prompt you to provide the nec-
essary driver. You should ignore the prompting
messages (just click the Cancel button) and set up
the driver according to the steps described in 2.2
Driver Installation.
