Hardware installation

1. Shut down all power connected to the computer, as well as all devices connected to

the computer peripherally (i.e. Printers, Monitors, Scanners etc.). Optional: As an

added step to ensure safe installation, unplug the power supply from the computer.

2. Remove the computer cover. For more detailed instruction on how to perform this

step, please refer to the documentation that was included with your computer at the

time of purchase.

3. Locate an empty PCI slot, removing the metal bracket covering the accompanying

empty port/socket.

4. Position the PCI USB card above the open PCI slot, ensuring that the card is aligned

with the entire slot. Insert the card firmly into the slot, distributing force evenly across

the length of the board. Once inserted, secure the card into the adjoining socket

(previously covered by metal bracket), using the correct size screw (please consult

documentation that accompanied purchase of computer).

5. Replace the computer cover.

6. If unplugged, plug computer and all peripherals back in to power source. Turn your

computer on.

7. Once the computer has fully booted, connect USB peripherals to the ports provided

(as necessary). If you are using Windows XP/2000, please ensure that your computer

has the most recent Service Packs installed. If the necessary updates have already

been installed, Windows will automatically detect that the PCI card has been installed,

and install the necessary drivers automatically.

If you are using Windows 98/98SE/ME, please see Driver Installation.

Driver installation

Please note that Microsoft EHCI drivers for Windows XP/2000 are not included with this

card. In order to acquire the necessary drivers, please ensure that you have installed

Windows XP Service Pack 1 or above (for Windows XP installations), or Windows 2000

Service Pack 4 or above (for Windows 2000). Once you have installed the appropriate

Service Pack on your system, Windows will automatically choose the correct driver for

your card.

To download Windows XP Service Pack 1:

1. Make sure you are connected to the Internet.

2. Click Start and select Windows Update.

3. Windows XP will launch Microsoft Internet Explorer and open the link to Microsoft

Windows Update. Please click on Scan for updates.

Instruction Manual

4. Microsoft Windows Update will list all available updates on the web. At Critical

Updates and Service Packs, select the most recent Service Pack available for

download.

5. Once The Service Pack is downloaded and installed into your system, you will need to

To download Windows 2000 Service Pack 4:

2. Click Start and select Windows Update.

3. Windows 2000 will launch Microsoft Internet Explorer and open the link to Microsoft

4. Click Review and install updates.

5. Scroll up and down the bottom screen to check the components that Microsoft

Windows has chosen for you to update. As these components are the most critical

components for your system, it is recommended that you install all of them

immediately. Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 should be included in the list if your

system has not been updated before. De-select any unnecessary downloads, and

choose Install now to start downloading.
