Installing Optional Devices

Before you set up and connect your system components, you

may want to install any optional equipment you plan to use.

Your User’s Guide gives complete instructions for installing

options such as disk drives, memory modules, a math

coprocessor, and option cards.

Note that the order in which you install your option cards

depends on the type of cards you have. If you will be installing

only ISA option cards that did not come with their own

configuration (CFG) files, you should install them before you

connect your peripheral devices. Follow the instructions in

your ISA card manual to set the card’s switches or jumpers for

your system.

If you will be installing EISA cards, you should also install

them before you connect peripheral devices so your computer’s

configuration program will automatically detect the card and

configure it correctly.

If you will be installing ISA cards that came with their own

CFG files, you should install them after you have connected the

necessary peripheral devices and run the computer’s

configuration program. This allows you to add the CFG file

information to your configuration so the program can give you

the card’s correct jumper and switch settings. Then you can set

the switches and jumpers and install the card.

Be sure to check your computer’s option slot power limits in

Chapter 3 of your User’s Guide before you install any option

cards. Then follow the instructions there to install the cards.
