2-2 Installing Your Peritek Graphics Board
2.2 Unpacking Your Board
When you unpack your board, inspect the contents to see if any damage
occurred in shipping. If there has been physical damage, file a claim with
the carrier at once and contact Rastergraf for information regarding repair
or replacement. Do not attempt to use damaged equipment.
Caution
Be careful not to remove the board from its antistatic bag or container
until you are ready to install it. It is preferable to wear a grounded wrist
strap whenever handling computer boards.
Some operating systems require that you reboot your system after
installing a device driver, because only after the reboot will your system
utilize the driver and recognize the board. If yours is such an operating
system, you might like to install your Rastergraf software
before
installing
the board since you will have to shut down the computer to install the
board anyway. If you want to install the software before shutting down the
computer, proceed to the correct part of the relevant software manual and
return to this chapter afterwards.
