Zoom PCI Cable Modem Owner’s Manual
Step 3: Installing the Hardware
Note:
You need to install the drivers
before
you install the PCI
cable modem card. See
Step 2: Installing the Drivers
on
page 9.
It is recommended that you remove or disable other net-
work adapter cards that are in your system before you in-
stall your PCI cable modem. For instructions on how to
do this, refer to your network adapter card’s owner’s man-
ual.

If you have not already done so, record the MAC addresses
printed on the label that has been placed on the backside of
the modem board. You may need to know the MAC ad-
dresses when you set up an account with your cable com-
pany. The label will not be visible after the PCI cable mo-
dem is installed so record the numbers now in the
Important Information
table on page 32 of this manual.

Before you start the hardware installation, close all
running programs and shut down Windows if you
have not already done so. Then turn your computer off
and unplug it.
Don’t plug it back in or turn it on until you
have completed the PCI cable modem hardware installa-
tion.

Take the cover off your computer. You will probably have
to remove several screws on the back of the case; most
likely, they are near the outer edges.

Unscrew and remove the metal cover plate on the rear of
the computer that lines up with an available PCI slot.
The PCI slot is shorter than a 16-bit ISA slot and usually a
different color (ISA slots are typically black or brown; PCI
slots are usually white or gray). Your cable modem has two
sections of gold connecting fingers, and a PCI slot has two
sections that match the sections on your cable modem.
