Chapter 5
This chapter provides information on how to install 3
into your MAGMA expansion chassis. More details on the installation of
individual cards are provided by the card's manufacturer. This chapter is
provided as a simple guide to help you install your PCI cards in the
chassis.
For the purpose of installation, the MAGMA expansion chassis functions
exactly as a standard desktop computer chassis. Always follow the
manufacturer's instructions for installing their card on a desktop
computer.
IMPORTANT
We will provide reasonable technical support with 3
cards. However, if you have verified a successful installation of the
MAGMA expansion system (as defined in Chapter 4), but
experience difficulty installing your 3
card manufacturer should be able to provide the best support.
Be aware that all PCI drivers MUST BE Windows Driver Model
(WDM) compatible to work properly in a laptop+expansion system
environment. If you have a problem with the PCI card driver,
contact the card's manufacturer for a WDM compatible driver.
Remove PCI Expansion Chassis Cover
Two screws retain the cover on the expansion chassis. They are located
on the rear of the unit, on the top left and top right of the cover's back
edge. Remove these screws to open the enclosure.
