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.

Instruction Manual

Installation

This section will guide you through the installation of your PCI card and the related

order listed.

Installing the Card

2. Remove the cover of your system (see your computer’s user manual for details, if

necessary) and gently turn your computer onto its side.

3. Locate an empty PCI slot (usually white in color) and remove the metal plate that

covers the rear bracket. You may need a Phillips screwdriver to perform this step.

Retain this screw! You will need it to secure the card later.

4. Gently insert the card into the empty slot, making sure it is rmly seated.

5. Secure the card in place using the screw you removed in Step 3.

6. Connect the port dongle provided to the port on the back of the card.
