2 Remove all jewelry from your hands and wrists.
3 Use only insulated or nonconductive tools.
4 Remove the computer's cover and select any of the
available EISA expansion slots.
5 Insert the adapter in the slot and secure the screw.
If you have a computer with slots other than EISA slots, be sure
to install the Fast EtherLink EISA adapter only in an EISA slot. It
can be a bus master or a non-bus master slot. The Fast
EtherLink EISA adapter provides better performance in a bus
master slot. EISA slots are longer than PCI slots and deeper than
ISA slots. Figure 2-2 compares the size of the slots in a computer
that has PCI and EISA slots.
The adapter backplate should be flush with the computer
chassis. Be sure that the connector fingers of the adapter are
completely seated in the slot.

If you are installing multiple Fast EtherLink EISA adapters in a
computer, you must run the EISA configuration program
after you install each adapter. See the discussions about
installing multiple EISA adapters in Chapter 4.
