Note about installing the drivers for cards and devices under Windows

It is best to install the driver software before you install the actual hardware

1. Reboot the computer
2. Install the driver.
3. Insert the card into the PCI bus
4. Power on and take note of the i/o and interupt the PnP bios gives the card.
5. Boot into Windows and let the cards detect and let Windows search for the driver.

If you installed the card before installing the drivers:

1. Uninstall the driver, power off, remove the card.
2. Reboot, reinstall the driver.
3. Reinsert the card into the PCI bus, but in a different slot
4. Power on and take note of the i/o and interupt the PnP bios gives the card.
5. Boot into Windows and let the cards detect and let Windows search for the driver.
