automatically. However, there are circumstances in which you must use the
Configuration/Setup Utility program to configure a PCI adapter. For
information about these circumstances, see “Configuring PCI adapters” on
page 84.
Note: If you install an audio adapter, you must disable the system-board
audio, using the Configuration/Setup Utility program. The only
exception to this is if you install an Aureal Audio PCI Adapter in PCI
slot 1. In this case, the adapter is automatically detected and the
system-board audio is disabled.
Some adapters require device drivers and other support software, which
usually ship with the adapter. The method of installing device drivers varies;
so, always follow the instructions in the documentation provided with the
adapter to install any device drivers and support software.
