case your audio application explicitly requires a Wave interface, a Wave driver
is available on request. In this case, please contact
Digigram
.
Supported operating systems
PCX HR and PCX e cards run under Windows XP, Windows Server 2003,
Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and Windows 7.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Due to the reduced length of the PCI EXPRESS™ bus connector and the resulting
lack of mechanical stability, we strongly advise against transporting the PCIe
®
card(s)
installed in a computer, unless its chassis or case provides a dedicated support to
keep the card securely in place in order to avoid physical damage.
The card has to be installed in the computer prior to installing its driver.
Installing the card
Gently plug the card in a free PCI slot and press it down to position it firmly.
Tighten the screw.
Interrupt and memory address
Hardware interrupt and addresses are automatically set up at start-up by the PCI
PnP BIOS.

Windows XP and Server 2003 only
