•Because you will be restarting your computer during installation, save your work and quit all programs before you begin.

•To set up your communication settings, a PA966 serial cable is required to connect the PA966 to your host computer.

•If you run the Windows NT® operating system with a service pack, you will be informed during setup that you may need to reinstall the service pack. Try connecting first, and if unsuccessful, reinstall the latest service pack.
