Installation
Step 1.
Hardware Installation
The DFW-500 is a PCI compliant IEEE 1394 Adapter. To install, turn off and unplug your
computer. Touch an unpainted screw on the outside of the case to ground yourself and
avoid static discharge that could render the card inoperable. Remove the case, and insert
the adapter into one of your computer’s PCI slots.
Step 2.
Installing Drivers on Windows 98
Note: Installation in Windows Me and 2000 is similar. The screenshots will not match
exactly, so let Windows search for the drivers automatically and choose the driver that
Windows suggests. Doing so will ensure that the proper driver is installed.
After you have installed the DFW-500 into one of your available PCI slots, power the
computer on and boot into Windows. Windows will automatically detect the DFW-500 and
prompt you for drivers. The following steps illustrate how to install the DFW-500.
