Installation
WARNING! Computer parts can be severely damaged by static electricity.
Be sure that you are properly grounded before opening your computer case.
StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap when installing any
computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself of any
static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the
computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the card by its edges and
not the gold connectors.
Hardware Installation
1. Line up and insert the Mini PCI Express adapter card with the Mini PCI Express slot on
the system board. Match up the gap in the card connector, with the notch in the slot.

particular application.
