Step 2
Insert the Card into an Available PCI Slot on your Desktop
2.1
Shut down your computer and
disconnect your power cord.
2.2
Remove the screws behind your
computer case that secure the
computer cover and remove cover.
Note:
Touch any metal part of the
case to discharge static electricity
to avoid damage to the product or
your computer.
2.3
Locate an empty PCI expansion
slot. It is usually white in color.
Confirm that the Card will fit into
the slot you have chosen. Keep
in mind that the included antenna
needs to be oriented with the top
pointing up. If there are cables
and other connectors in the way,
try to pick the PCI slot that has
the fewest obstructions to the
correct positioning of the antenna.
2.4
Remove the metal port cover from
the back of the computer that
corresponds to the PCI slot you
selected. If there is a screw, place
it in a safe place, as you will be
using it to attach the Card to the
computer later.
2.5
Push the Card firmly into the PCI
slot that you have chosen. Apply
pressure as needed until the
connector is fully seated.
2.6
Now secure the Card with the
screw that you previously placed
in a safe place.
