Installing the NIC

To install the NIC in the PC:

1 Make sure that you have run the preinstallation

program, as described in the previous section.

CAUTION: Before handling the NIC, touch the bare metal

case of your PC to discharge static electricity from your

body. While you are handling the NIC, wear a wrist strap

grounded to the PC chassis.

2 Remove all jewelry from your hands and wrists. Use

only insulated or nonconducting tools.

3 Make sure that the power to the PC is turned off and

that the power cord is unplugged.

4 Remove the cover from the PC.

5 Locate an empty, nonshared bus mastering PCI slot

and remove the corresponding slot cover. Save

the screw.

Do not install the NIC in a shared PCI slot. Avoid any

PCI slot next to an ISA slot. This is often a shared slot

and does not support bus mastering.

If you do not know how to identify a PCI slot, check your

PC documentation or ask your system administrator.

If you are planning to install the Remote Wake-Up cable or

a cable for the SOS or SMBus connector, choose an empty

PCI slot that is close to the matching connector on the

PC motherboard.

6 Carefully insert the NIC into the empty PCI slot (see

Figure 1). Press ﬁrmly to ensure that the NIC is fully

seated in the slot.
