IMPORTANT
The MAGMA PCI Expansion System is designed to function
exactly like your desktop computer. This means that you should
follow the PCI card maker's instructions for installation on a
Windows or Mac computer as if the expansion chassis WAS the
desktop computer. When correctly installed, there is no difference
to the operating system, removable cards, or most software.
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.

The PCI to PCI Bridge is Not Found

If the first PCI to PCI Bridge is not visible at all you will need to turn off
your laptop (first) and then the MAGMA expansion chassis (second) and
test all cords and cables to ensure you have everything connected
correctly. Double-check the CardBus card to ensure it is inserted
correctly. If your laptop has two CardBus slots, you should also try the
other slot.
