of the metal bracket and the opposite top corner. Avoid
contact with the adapter's expansion bus edge connector or
any of the adapter's components. Failure to observe all static
precautions could result in damage to the adapter. We
recommend the use of an antistatic wrist strap.
Plug and Play Systems
"Plug and Play™" is an automatic configuration scheme. Your
computer can be considered a "Plug and Play" system if it uses
either a Plug and Play BIOS, or a Plug and Play operating system,
or a Plug and Play Configuration Manager device driver. Plug and
Play software will automatically set the parameters of IRQ, I/O
Base Address, and DMA channel for all adapters that are plugged
into the system at power up time.
