INSTALLATION

Inserting the Video Capture

Card into Your Computer

NOTE: Before installing your capture card, write down the card’s serial number in this space:

________________________________

You will find the serial number underneath the bar code on the white sticker on the capture card and on your Bigpicture package. If you ever need to call our technical support department, the technical support representative will ask you for this serial number. This number will help him or her identify your capture card.

Your video capture card supports Plug and Play installation, the fastest, easiest way to add new hardware to your PC. Windows 95 should do all the work of detecting your new hardware.

TIP: Before you unplug anything, label the cords or make a sketch of how things are connected. This can be helpful when you plug things back in later.

1.Turn off your computer and unplug it from the electrical outlet.

2.Unplug any peripheral devices (printer, monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc.) from the computer.
