Installing the Hardware
Follow the steps below to install the NetStream 2000 into your
computer.
1. Turn off the power to the computer and to the VGAmonitor.
Unplug (disconnect) the power cord from the computer.
2. Disconnect the VGAmonitor cable from your PC.
3. Remove the cover from the computer. (Refer to your PC user’s
manual for specific instructions.)
4. Locate an available PCI expansion slot. (The NetStream 2000
will not fit into an ISAslot.)
5. Remove the slot cover screw and slot cover, if applicable.
6. Open the protective sleeve containing the NetStream 2000, grasp
the circuit board by the edge of its mounting bracket, and remove
it from the protective sleeve.
7. Insert the NetStream 2000 into the PCI expansion slot. Press
down gently on the top edges of the board to ensure that all
connecting points are seated securely. Anchor the board’s mount-
ing bracket using the screw removed earlier.
8. Replace the cover of your PC and reconnect the power cord.
Note: If you install a DVD-ROM drive at the same time as the
NetStream 2000, remember to attach the CD-Audio cable from the
DVD-ROM drive to your sound card. Otherwise, you will not be
able to play CD-Audio titles with the DVD-ROM drive. This will
not affect the audio of DVD-ROM titles.

Note: NetStream 2000 requires a bus-mastered PCI slot. Most PCI
slots support PCI bus mastering, but if you experience difficulties
with your NetStream 2000, you may wish to relocate the card to a
different PCI slot.
