Installing the NT960/PCI in your System
To install the NT960/PCI Host Adapter in your computer follow
these steps:
Computer components are very sensitive to static electricity.
When installing adapters in your computer make sure that you
wear an anti-static wristband. Handle the adapter by its edges
and place it on the anti-static bag or an anti-static mat.
1. Turn the power off to your computer.
2. Open your computer to expose the expansion slots (consult
the system documentation for information on this procedure.)
3. Choose an available PCI expansion slot.
4. Remove the screw and the expansion slot cover from the slot
you select and save both.
5. Place the NT960/PCI in the expansion slot and push down
gently until the card seats fully in the slot.
Note: Do not force the card into the expansion slot. If you meet a
great deal of resistance, remove the board and try again.
6. Align the mounting bracket and secure the board with the
screw that you saved.
7. Close your computer.
