2-4 Alacritech 100 Series Hardware Installation Guide
2.3 Hardware Installation
Note: Alacritech server adapters use components that
are sensitive to ESD. Proper ESD handling and
storage should be followed.
Note: Windows 2000 automatically loads driver software
upon detection of new PCI hardware. To aid this
process, the Windows 2000 software pre-
installation must be performed before hardware is
installed.
1. Turn off and unplug the computer. Failure to do so
could endanger you, and may damage the adapter or
computer.
2. Remove the computer cover, and install the 100 Series
adapter in any available bus-mastering PCI slot. Use a
64-bit PCI slot, if available, to maximize system
performance. The 100 Series is fully compatible with
32-bit PCI slots, and 3.3 volt or 5.0 volt PCI slots.
Some PCI slots have fasteners, which must be secured
in order for the adapter card to function correctly.
3. Replace the computer cover, turn on and boot the
computer.
