8. HARDWARE INSTALLATION

Before attempting to install the GigMac Gigabit adapter into your system, please
make sure of the following:

Shut off the power to the computer and any peripherals. It is important to remove
the power cable
to the computer to reduce the possibility of residual power
remaining in the power supply.

Ground yourself. Many electronic components inside computer and on the
GigMac card can be severely damaged by receiving a shock of static electricity.
Before touching any electronic components or boards, discharge any static
electricity on your body by touching the bare metal case around the power supply
inside your computer. Avoid excessive movement during the installation, such as
walking across carpets, as this can generate static. If you must leave the
installation area before the installation is complete, be sure to ground yourself
again before continuing the installation.

Assess system power requirements. If you already have other PCI cards in
your Mac, make sure that your system is able to provide the necessary power to
support the addition of the GigMac adapter card. Check your computer's user
manual for power limitations.
