Installation

WARNING! PCI cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely

damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded

before opening your computer case or touching your PCI card.

StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap when

installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable,

discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large

grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several

seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI card by its edges and not

the gold connectors.

Hardware Installation

1. Turn your computer off and any peripherals connected to the

computer (i.e. Printers, external hard drives, etc.). Unplug the power

cable from the rear of the power supply on the back of the computer

and disconnect all peripheral devices.

2. Remove the cover from the computer case. Refer to documentation

for your computer system for details.

3. Locate an open PCI or PCI-X slot and remove the metal cover plate

on the rear of the computer case.

4. Insert the card into the open PCI or PCI-X slot and fasten the card’s

bracket to the rear of the case.

5. Place the cover back onto the computer case.

6. Insert the power cable into the socket on the power supply and

reconnect all other connectors removed in Step 1.
