The ESP1010e PCIe card and other components in the computer can be damaged easily by

electrical shock. You should use an anti-static device that can discharge the static electricity of your

body to avoid potential static damage to the cards. If you do not feel capable of installing a PCIe

card into your computer please contact a computer specialist.

Turn off the computer power and remove the power cable from your computer power supply.

Disconnecting the Power Cord

Refer to your computer user's manual and remove the computer cover. Make sure that you have an

available PCIe slot on your motherboard to install the ESP1010e.

Removing the computer cover

To avoid possible static shock damage to the computer parts, discharge it by touching the computer

case or something grounded. We recommend you use an anti-static device such as an anti-static

wristband.
