Troubleshooting Expansion Cards

seems to perform incorrectly or not at all, the problem could be a faulty connection, a
conflict with software or other hardware, or a faulty expansion card. Follow these

Start the Resource Configuration Utility (RCU), and verify that all ISA expansion
cards have been configured correctly. Save the configuration before exiting the
utility.
See "Using the Resource Configuration Utility" in the User's Guide for
instructions.
2.
Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect the sys-
tem from the electrical outlet.
CAUTION: See "Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge" in the safety

in its connector.
