Introduction

First of all, many thanks for purchasing this Sweex 4 Port USB 2.0 & 3 Port Firewire PCI Card. This card enables you to easily add four USB ports
and two FireWire ports to the PC.
To ensure this product operates correctly, we advise you to carefully read this manual first. If despite this manual you still experience problems during
installation or operation of this product, go to www.sweex.com and look under the heading service & support.
Hardware
Take the following precautionary measures prior to installing the hardware:
1. Ensure the PC is switched off and disconnected from the mains.
2. Also, disconnect the printer and monitor cables (they have their own power supply) to be absolutely sure that the PC is not live.
3. Now unscrew the computer casing.
4. After having unscrewed the computer casing, you must ensure that you are free of any static electricity. Do this by touching a (neutral) pipe of the
central heating system or an unpainted water pipe. Please note that you must not use magnetic screwdrivers. Before you proceed any further, briefly
touch the iron frame of the PC casing. Furthermore, make sure that you minimise contact with any contact points of the PC, PCI card or the memory.
5. Find a vacant PCI slot and remove the metal guard plate part of the computer casing in front of the relevant slot. On occasion the card does not
allow to be inserted in the PCI slot smoothly. Should this be the case, do not force anything, but try another available slot.
6. Once the card has been successfully installed, check whether all other cards are still properly inserted in the PCI slots. It is possible that the
other PCI cards are lifted up slightly when installing a new PCI card; as a result, the relevant cards or even the entire PC may no longer operate
correctly.
7. You can now replace the casing on the computer base and correctly reconnect all cables to and from the PC.
8. Now switch on the PC again.
9. Windows will now detect the card.
Installation under Windows 98SE
We advise you to ensure the operating system is up-to-date before starting the installation. This can be easily checked by starting up Internet Explorer
and selecting the option "Windows Update" in the "Extra" menu. Once the hardware has been detected, Windows shows the following screen:
Click "Next".
