Troubleshooting

2. Touch any metal part of the case to discharge static electricity, which could damage your product or your computer.

3.Remove the Card.

4.Locate a different empty PCI expansion slot. It is usually white in color.

5.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 connections in the way, try to pick the PCI slot that has the fewest obstructions to correct the positioning of the antenna.

6.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.

7.Push the Card firmly into the PCI slot that you have chosen. Apply pressure as needed until the connector is fully seated.

8.Now secure the Card with the screw that you previously placed in a safe place.

9.Carefully screw the antenna onto the threaded connector on the Card. Turn the antenna until it is vertical and pointing up.

10.Replace the computer’s cover. Now that the Card is installed, you can reconnect the power cord, and turn it back on.

11.The computer should now properly recognize the Card.
