CAUTION:

Before you begin any of the procedures in this section,

follow the safety instructions on page 7.

Install only PCI cards in your computer. Before installing a card, make sure
that a slot is available for it.

NOTICE:

To disconnect a network cable, first unplug the cable from your

computer and then unplug it from the network jack.

electrical outlets.

electrical outlet discharges residual electricity and can help prevent

system board damage.
