Powering Down:
It is recommended that you first shut down the host computer correctly
and then power down the chassis to avoid ‘computer lock-up’.
Step Seven: Install Software Drivers
WARNING
You WILL be prompted to Shut Down and Reboot your system severa
l
times during software installation. Please be patient, each Shut Down
and Reboot does serve a purpose and is required for correc
t
installation. If you Shut Down and Reboot when requested, it may save
you from having to make a call to MAGMA Technical Support.
Mac OS 9.x or Mac OS X
If you are running Mac OS, you may skip this step and continue to Step
Eight. There are no MAGMA drivers required for Mac OS 9.x or Mac
OS X. The Mac OS operating system should recognize the MAGMA
expansion chassis on first boot with the chassis powered up and
connected to the PowerBook. See Appendix A for Mac OS 9 Verification
Instructions.
Windows 98SE & Windows ME
Although a MAGMA CardBus Driver is not required, MAGMA
recommends that you install the MAGMA Software Utility before
connecting the expansion chassis to your computer. See Appendix B,
page 15 for complete MAGMA Software installation instructions.
If you did not realize that you should have loaded the MAGMA CardBus
Driver already, it’s okay. Since a MAGMA CardBus Driver is not
required, you may be prompted to locate and load drivers for PCI cards
that you have installed in the chassis at this time.
If you are prompted
to reboot, please do so to ensure correct installation.
After
installation of other drivers is complete, you should load the MAGMA
CardBus Driver following the Windows 98SE/ME Instructions detailed in
Appendix B of this manual.
Windows NT, Windows 2000 & Windows XP
A MAGMA CardBus Driver is required for Windows NT, Windows 2000
and Windows XP. See Appendix B for complete driver installation
instructions before continuing to Step Eight.
