Installation

3Dlabs Graphics Accelerator Card User's Manual

Installing your 3Dlabs Graphics Accelerator Card

Determine whether your 3Dlabs Graphics Accelerator Card is designed to fit

into either an AGP/AGP Pro slot or a PCI slot in your computer.

Note: If your card is configured with a factory installed daughter card

attached, then the base (or larger) card is an AGP and/or AGP Pro compatible

card. If the daughter card includes a card edge connector, the daughter card

is a PCI compatible card and must be inserted in the adjacent PCI slot. If the

daughter card does not have a card edge connector, it still takes up the space

of a second slot, but is not inserted into that slot.

See the drawings below showing these different types of card edge connectors to

determine which type of card you have.

If your 3Dlabs Graphics Accelerator Card includes a daughter card you must

install your base card into the AGP/AGP Pro slot and the adjacent PCI slot

must be empty to accomodate the daughter card. Check your system

documentation to locate the appropriate slot(s).

Turn off and unplug the power source for your system and each of its

peripherals.

Note: If you are replacing an old graphics card, be sure to uninstall your old

video driver software before tuning off your system and removing your old

graphics card.
