Except where noted, the illustrations in this chapter show the 8500 model. If
you have a 9500 model, some of the illustrations may look slightly different
from your computer.

IMPORTANT

If you will be installing a PC Serial and Parallel Card with your

PC Compatibility Card, it’s easiest to install both cards at the same time. The
PC Serial and Parallel Card has standard PC ports that allow you to use
several kinds of PC-compatible peripherals from the Windows or DOS
environment (not from the Mac OS environment). Instructions in this
chapter indicate when to see your PC Serial and Parallel Card manual for
installation information.

After you install the PC Compatibility hardware, go to Chapter 5,
“Connecting Monitors and Other Equipment.” If you want to install
additional memory in your card, go to Appendix B, “Adding Memory to Your
PC Compatibility Card.” Then turn to Chapters 6 through 9 to learn more
about installing and using PC software.

WARNING

Shipping your computer with a PC Compatibility Card

installed may cause damage to the card. Your PC Compatibility Card
should be shipped separately. (See Appendix A for instructions on how
to remove the card.)
