Before you Install the 1394 FireWire Card
Make sure you have your Windows 98 or Windows 98 Second
Edition (SE) CD-ROM on hand during the installation pro-
cess. Windows may need to copy some files from its own instal-
lation CD-ROM during the installation of the 1394 FireWire
Card. In this case, insert your Windows installation CD when
it is requested and follow the on-screen instructions. When
windows has copied the files it needs, you will be returned to
the installation process where you left it.
To reduce the chance that there will be problems operating
the 1394 FireWire Card, do not install it at the same time
as you install any other PCI devices.
Use the extension cable provided to avoid stretching the
power cables in your computer to reach the card. The cable
from your computer’s power supply should be able to reach
farther, when fully extended, than the location of the card.
Make sure there is slack in the cable when the connection
has been made.
