Installing and Configuring DriverLINX for
DAS-8 Series Boards
Important:
As a precaution against a system crash the first time you
install and test any new hardware, you should exit all other programs and,
if you use a disk cache, disable write caching. If the system does crash
and you’re using disk compression software or a disk cache utility, as a
precaution after any crash, run the utility that checks the directory
structures.
