Installing Hardware
Installation Steps
Step 1: Prepare the
Sound Blaster
Audigy 2 Platinum
eX hardware
Turn off the main power supply
and disconnect your computer's
power cord. Systems using an
ATX power supply unit with soft
power off may still be powering
the PCI slot. This can damage
your audio card when it is
inserted into the slot.
1. Place the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum eX External I/O Module near your computer.
2. Locate the AD_LINK cable that links your External I/O Module to your Sound Blaster Audigy 2
Platinum eX card.
