1. Turn off the computer and unplug the power cord. For Hot Plug servers, see your server documentation first. 2. Remove the cover bracket from a PCI-Express slot (v1.0a or newer) or a PCI (2.2 or later) slot. If you have configuration problems, see your computer's documentation to determine if the PCI-Express or PCI slots are bus master-enabled. 3. Optional step for low profile capable models: If you need to install the adapter in a low profile PCI-Express or PCI chassis, first replace the adapter standard bracket with the supplied low profile bracket. To remove existing bracket, unscrew the two screws as shown at right and then pull bracket off. Reverse the process to attach the low profile bracket. See the User's Guide (step 8) for complete instructions. 4. Firmly insert the adapter into the selected slot. Push down to ensure the adapter is fully seated.
