for blades with a V54x0-series host card and a GPU card, install a driver for the GPU.
10. Optionally, install PCoIP Host Driver Software on the blade or VM containing a host card.
The version of the PCoIP Host Software must match the host card and the zero client
firmware versions.
11. Install drivers for any additional peripherals or hardware.
12. Now connect to a zero client (as described in this guide). Depending on the components in
your zero client, you can optionally install zero-client-specific drivers:
a. Install the Realtek HD Audio driver.
b. Install the DB9 driver if your client has a DB9 port.
c. Install the Common Access Card (CAC) driver if the zero client contains an internal
CAC reader.

Viewing Pre-OS Video (BIOS Configuration)
and USB Input
The following sections describe how to view video output (such as power-on self test [POST]
codes and BIOS configuration utility screens) generated before a blade or VM operating system
starts. Instructions are provided for A- and R-series blades.
4.6.1 A-Series Blades
In the A-series architecture, host cards using PCoIP technology do not support local video at the
blade, and USB is redirected to the client after the operating system starts. To access blade pre-
OS video (such as BIOS configuration screens), connect a keyboard to the blade and use a zero
client to view pre-OS video as described below.
