Connecting the Audio
Internal Audio Connection
When connecting cables to the computer, look at the connector and the socket
carefully. The audio cables included with your
ATI-TV Wonder
tuner card are keyed to fit into the socket in only one way.
DO NOT FORCE THE CONNECTOR INTO THE SOCKET.
If you encounter difficulty, realign the connector with the socket. Then gently but
firmly slide the connector fully into the socket.
Note that ATI recommends the
external
audio connection method.
Note: If you already have an external audio connection,
internal audio connection is not necessary.
1
Power off the computer, then disconnect the power cable.
See
Figure 2. Connecting the audio internally
2
Remove the computer cover. If necessary, consult your
computer system manual for removal instructions.
3
Remember to discharge your body’s static electricity by
touching the metal area of the computer chassis.
4
Locate your CD-ROM drive. On the rear of the drive are
several connectors. Match the CD AUDIO OUT connector
to either the black or the white connector on the special
audio cables included with your ATI-TV Wonder tuner
card. Carefully and firmly insert either the black or the
white connector into the CD AUDIO OUT socket.
Remember to use the end of the audio cable with both a
black and a white connector. Connect only ONE (1) of these
plugs to the CD-ROM.
5
Connect the other end of the audio cable (with one white
connector) to the CD IN socket of your new
ATI-TV Wonder tuner card.
6
Use the second audio cable to connect your
ATI-TV Wonder tuner card to your sound card. Gently but
firmly push the single white connector on the cable to the
CD OUT socket on your ATI-TV Wonder tuner card.
7
Locate your sound card. Locate the CD IN socket, typically
located near the top of the board. Determine if the CD IN
socket requires a black or a white connector.
Look carefully at your sound card. The socket should be
labeled CD IN or AUX IN.
8
Gently but firmly insert the appropriate connector (white or
black) into the CD IN socket on your sound card.
9
Replace the computer cover and reconnect the power cable.
