1-4 Setting Up Your Audio Card
Installing the Card and Related Hardware
If you want to install this Plug and Play (PnP) card in a non-PnP
environment such as DOS/Windows 3.1x or Windows 95
MS-DOS Mode, you must first install a PnP configuration
manager. For more details, refer to the documentation that
comes with your PnP configuration manager.
To install the card and related peripherals:
1. Switch off your system and all peripheral devices, and unplug
the power cord from the wall outlet.
2. Touch a metal plate on your system to ground yourself and
discharge any static electricity.
3. Remove your system’s cover.
4. If you have a memory daughterboard, you may want to mount
it onto your audio card now, as shown in Figure 1-3.
5. Find a free 16-bit expansion slot in your system. Remove the
metal plate from the slot you have chosen and put the screw
aside. The screw will be used in a later step.
