1.
Shut down the computer and unplug it from its
power source.

Remove the chassis cover from your computer.
Note:
Touch an unpainted metal area of your com-
puter’s case to ground yourself. This will protect
your equipment from electrostatic discharge.

Unscrew and remove the expansion slot cover from
an available PCI slot.
Note:
You can use this card in either a 32-bit or a 64-
bit PCI slot, but in order to take advantage of the card’s 64-bit capability you must
use a 64-bit slot.

Insert the U. S. Robotics 10/100/1000 Mbps 64-bit PCI NIC completely into the PCI slot.

Secure the NIC with the expansion slot screw.
