Step-By-Step
1. Install the card
Turn off your PC, unplug it, and open the case. Use an antistatic wrist strap to avoid damaging components. Find a free PCI slot and remove the slot cover. Insert the card and fasten it down with the screw. If your card has a socket for powering USB or Fire-Wire peripherals, find a power supply connector and connect it to the card. If no connectors are free, you'll need to purchase a Y-connector. Replace the cover on the PC and plug it in.
