Installing Your VGA Card

Preparing Your Computer

READ ME FIRST

Before installing your VGA Card we recommend that you first uninstall the driver for
your current video card and reconfigure your operating system to use the standard
display driver (VGA) supplied with your operating system. For more information about
changing to the VGA driver see your operating system documentation.
Turn off the power to your system and discharge your body's static electric
charge by touching a grounded surface-for example, the metal surface of the
power supply-before performing any hardware procedure.
The manufacturer assumes no liability for any damage, caused directly or
indirectly, by improper installation of any components by unauthorized service
personnel. If you do not feel comfortable performing the installation,
consult a qualified computer technician.
Damage to system components, the accelerator card, and injury to yourself
may result if power is applied during installation.
Now that you have prepared your computer, you are ready to install your VGA Card.
