HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Due to the reduced length of the PCI EXPRESS
TM
bus connector and the
resulting lack of mechanical stability, we strongly advise against transporting the
card(s) installed in a computer, unless its chassis or case provides a dedicated
support to keep the card securely in place in order to avoid physical damage.
The card has to be installed in the computer prior to installing its driver.
Installing the card
Gently plug the card into a free PCIe
®
slot and press it down firmly to position
it. Tighten the screw.
Interrupt and memory address
Hardware interrupt and addresses are automatically set up at start-up by the
PCI PnP BIOS.

Windows XP and Server 2003 only; for Windows Vista, a Wave driver is available on
request.
