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.
