Installation
WARNING! PCI Express cards, like all computer equipment, can be se-
verely damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly ground-
ed before opening your computer case or touching your card. StarTech.
com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap when installing any
computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge your-
self of any static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal
surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful
to handle the card by its edges and not the gold connectors.
Hardware Installation
1. Remove the computer cover. For more detailed instruction on how to
perform this step, please refer to the documentation that was included
with your computer at the time of purchase.
2. Locate an empty PCI Express slot, removing the metal bracket
covering the accompanying empty port/socket.
3. Position the card above the open PCI Express slot, ensuring that the
card is properly aligned with the slot. Insert the card firmly into the slot,

secure the card into the adjoining socket (previously covered by metal
bracket), using the correct size screw.
