Before You Begin your Installation
The product you have purchased is designed to be
easily installed into most IBM PC or compatible
systems. Many products have large, easy-to-read
legends to allow for the easy configuring of the
product. This installation manual contains detailed
instructions. Most included software has automatic
installation programs to place the software correctly onto your computer.
However, as all computers are configured differently, you may be
required to perform some basic DOS or Windows tasks. If you are not
familiar with basic DOS commands such as DIR, CD, or EDIT, you
should check your DOS manual, or seek assistance from you local
computer dealer to install the product.
How to get Technical Assistance
The dealer that you purchased this product or your computer from is the
first place you should go for technical assistance. The dealer is usually
the most qualified source of help, and is most
familiar with your system and how this product
should be installed. Many dealers have
customer service and technical support
programs, with varying levels of support
offered, depending on your needs and computer knowledge. Please
contact the dealer first whenever a problem occurs.
If your Dealer Can’t Assist you
If you can’t get assistance from your dealer, the manufacturer provides
varying levels of technical assistance as summarized on the following
page.

Damaged or Missing Items
We use many world-class quality assurance programs to ensure the
product you purchased is of the highest caliber. Sometimes, however, a
component may be missing from the box, or is damaged or corrupt in
some way. If this happens, immediately return the entire package to your
place of purchase so you may exchange it for a new one. Your dealer
should be able to provide you with an exchange far more quickly than by
contacting us directly. If for some reason you are unable to return the
product directly to its place of purchase, refer to the “Servicing Your
Product” and “Warranty” sections in this manual for instructions.

If the adapter does not function after you have installed it with the
necessary software, be sure the adapter is seated firmly and that
you have set all options correctly. If you still have difficulty, refer

place. Obviously, locations and types of screws as well as type of
case cover will vary based on your particular system. Refer to
your computer system documentation for assistance.

careful not to let the cover catch on internal cables to disk
drives, controllers, or the power supply.
