If you use a PCI slot that has been occupied with another card, first remove the driver software for that card, turn off the computer to remove the card, and then reboot the computer to forcibly recognize that the old card is not there. After completion of this process, turn off the computer and start the following installation process for the new card. 1 Referring to the manual that came with your computer, as explained in "Consulting on Documentation" of the paper document (Getting Started) in the package, prepare for installation of the card inside your computer. 2 Open the antistatic bag and take out the card while holding it by its edge to avoid touching metal PCI connectors and electronic components on the card. 3 Locate a sticker put on the card that is printed with a card's serial number. Make a note of the number for online registration, as explained in "User Registration" above. 4 Make sure the location of internal connectors on the card that attach with appropriate connectors from the internal devices of the computer (audio lines from CD-ROM drive, Modem card, video card). Each location of the card's connector is as follows: External connectors Internal connectors CDAUDIO (CD In) CDAUDIO Line In Mono Microphone In Line Out Speaker Out TAD VIDEO AUX TAD (Telephone Answering Device (TAD) In/Out) VIDEO (Video In) AUX (AUX In) PCPCI PCPCI (PC/PCI) Game Port & MIDI 3 Line In (Stereo mini-jack) Tip Left channel Ring Right channel Sleeve Ground Mono Microphone In (Stereo mini-jack) Tip Mic In Ring Power supply Sleeve Ground Line Out (Stereo mini-jack) Tip Left channel Ring Right channel Sleeve Ground Speaker Out (Stereo mini-jack) Tip Left channel Ring Right channel Sleeve Ground Game Port & MIDI 1 +5V 2 Joystick A Button 1 3 Joystick A X-coordinate 4 GND 5 GND 6 Joystick A Y-coordinate 7 Joystick A Button 2 8 +5V 9 +5V 10 Joystick B Button 1 11 Joystick B X-coordinate 12 MIDI Out 13 Joystick B Y-coordinate 14 Joystick B Button 2 15 MIDI In CDAUDIO 1 CD Ground 2 Left channel 3 CD Ground 4 Right channel TAD 1 2 3 4 VIDEO 1 2 3 4 AUX 1 2 3 4 PCPCI 1 2 3 4 5 6 Phone In Ground Ground Mono Out Left channel Ground Ground Right channel Left channel Ground Ground Right channel PC/PCI Grant # Ground PC/PCI Request # Ground Serialized IRQ # Connect this socket to your mother board if you wish to reproduce the sound from a DOS game in MS-DOS real mode. 5 Making necessary internal connections between the card and devices, attach the card to the PCI card slot in the computer. Make sure that the card is firmly seated in the appropriate direction. Do not force on the card if you feel it does not fit to the slot. Reconfirm first that you are attempting with a correct slot referring to the manual that came with your computer, and then retry. 6 After internal connections, make external connections with your peripheral devices (speakers, microphone, MIDI keyboard, etc.). 4 Installation of the Driver Software The soundcard will not work until you install appropriate driver software (Yamaha DS-XG driver) and reboot the computer.
