Installing the adapter

Caution: Opening your computer’s case may void your computer’s warranty. Contact your computer’s manufacturer before opening the case to make sure that you do not void the warranty. You may need to have the adapter installed by your computer’s manufacturer or an authorized computer technician.

Caution: Before touching any electronic components, make sure that you first touch an unpainted, grounded metal object to discharge any static electricity stored on your clothing or body.

To install your adapter:

1Turn off your computer and unplug the power cord and all cables.

2Remove your computer’s case cover. See your computer’s user guide for information about removing the cover.

3Locate an available PCI slot. PCI slots are usually white.

4Remove the screw that secures the backplate (the small piece of metal that covers the opening for PCI card on the back panel of your computer), then remove the backplate.

5If the bracket on the DX-PCIGB is too tall to fit your computer’s case, remove the bracket and replace it with the included low-profile bracket.
