Installation
WARNING! PCI Express 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 Express 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
Express card by its edges and not the gold connectors.
Hardware Installation
1. Turn your computer o 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. See documentation for your computer
system for details.
3. Locate an open PCI Express slot and remove the metal cover plate on the rear of the
computer case (Refer to documentation for your computer system for details.). Note
that this card will work in PCI Express slots of additional lanes (i.e. x4, x8 or x16 slots).
4. Insert the card into the open PCI Express slot and fasten the bracket to the rear of the
case. If using a case that ts full height cards, remove the low prole bracket (held by
small screws) from the card and replace with the included full height bracket.
5. To use the internal 5-pin IDC USB header, connect an internal USB peripheral (i.e. front
mounted USB ports, internal card readers, etc) directly to the IDC header, or use an
adapter cable to convert it to an external USB type A connector (StarTech.com ID:
USBMBADAPT).
6. Connect an SP4 oppy power connector from the computer power supply to the
connector on the card.
7. Place the cover back onto the computer case.
8. Insert the power cable into the socket on the power supply and reconnect all other
connectors removed in Step 1.
NOTE: Due to the stacked nature of the external USB ports, using USB cables with large
connectors may interfere with adjacent ports.

Driver Installation
Windows XP/Server 2003/Vista/Server 2008 R2/7
No driver installation is required for these operating systems, as this USB card is natively
supported, so the drivers are already installed.
Verifying Installation
From the main desktop, right-click on “My Computer” (“Computer” in Vista/7), then select
Manage. In the new Computer Management window, select Device Manager from the left
window panel.
Under the “Universal Serial Bus Controllers” category, new “VIA” host controller devices
should now be listed.
