Only handle the PCI-822 board by its edges and metal bracket.

Installing in the Macintosh

The PCI-822 requires one PCI slot in your computer.
1. Make sure the computer is off (but leave its power cord plugged in),
and then remove its cover or open its side panel.
2. Using a screwdriver, remove the blank metal bracket from an empty PCI
slot in the computer, and verify that the motherboard has no protruding
components that would obstruct the PCI-822 connectors.
3. Insert the PCI-822 board into the empty PCI slot, and secure the
PCI-822 bracket with a mounting screw.
4. Replace the cover or close the side panel, and restart the computer.
5. Attach the PCI-822 breakout cable to the 15-pin connector, using the
screws on each side of the connector to secure it firmly.
6. When the Macintosh desktop appears, insert the PCI-822 CD-ROM into
the CD-ROM drive.
7. When the CD-ROM window appears, open it and double-click the
"PCI-822 Mac Installer" icon, and follow its instructions.
8. After installation, run the "PCI-822 Installation Test" (in the PCI-822
Driver Files folder) to verify that the installation was successful.
