Installing The DualPort USB hardware

Prepare your work area by ensuring that you have a well-light-
ed space, preferably not on carpet (static), and away from all
magnetic devices.
1. Turn off the computer and disconnect all cables.
2. Touch the metal PCI access covers on the back of the
computer. This helps protect the computer from damage
caused by electrostatic discharge.
Important: Always do this before you touch any parts, or
install any components, inside the computer. To avoid gener-
ating static electricity, do not walk around the room until you
have completed the installation of the expansion card, mem-
ory, or internal storage device and closed the computer.
