Step 3 Installing the Hardware

Windows needs to detect the I/O address and interrupt used by the board. This is called hardware
installation.
When using more than one board, install the boards one at a time and do not install the next board until
setup is complete for the previous board.

Turning on the PC

Turn on the power to your PC.
CAUTION
- The board cannot be properly installed unless the resources (I/O addresses and interrupt level) for
the board can be allocated. Before attempting to install the board, first determine what PC
resources are free to use.
- The resources used by each board do not depend on the location of the PCI bus slot or the board
itself. If you remove two or more boards that have already been installed and then remount one of
them on the computer, it is unknown that which one of the sets of resources previously assigned to
the two boards is assigned to the remounted board. In this case, you must check the resource
settings.
