See your computer's user guide for information about removing the cover. 3 Locate an available PCI slot. PCI slots are usually white. 4 Remove the screw that secures the backplate (the small piece of metal that covers the opening for the PCI card on the back panel of your computer), then remove the backplate. 5 If you are installing the Wake On LAN cable, follow the instructions in "Connecting the WOL cable" on page 4. 6 Carefully insert the adapter into the PCI slot. Do not touch the metal connector on the adapter. 7 Secure the adapter to the case using the screw you removed from the backplate. 8 Reinstall your computer's case cover. 9 Plug in the power cord and other cables, then turn on your computer. Connecting the WOL cable The adapter features Wake On LAN (WOL). This feature lets a remote station "wake" your computer when it is in Standby or Hibernate mode. For more information about WOL, see your user guide. Caution: The WOL cable is an interconnect cable with standard 3-pin connectors on each end. If your computer's system board WOL connector does not fit the WOL cable or does not have 3 pins, do not try to force a connection or alter the components to fit. Doing so could permanently damage your computer. Note: The WOL function is system dependent. In addition to the following instructions, you may need to download WOL software from Intel or another manufacturer's Web site. See your computer's user guide for specific BIOS settings. To install the WOL cable: 1 Connect one end of the cable to the NIC WOL connector on the adapter. Both ends of the WOL cable are identical, so you can use either end. 2 Examine the computer's system board or see the system board guide to locate the corresponding WOL connector on the system board. The actual location varies, but the system board may have a label beside the WOL connector.
