Installing the Voyager 64
1. Turn the power switch to the OFF position.
Remove the power cord from the back of
the computer and unplug the keyboard
cable from the computer. Then use a small
screwdriver to remove the screws that
attach the computer’s cover to the rear
panel. Carefully slide the cover forward,
away from the rear panel.
The Voyager 64 board must be installed in a
PCI-bus compatible slot. PCI expansion slots
are shorter than standard ISA slots. The
Voyager 64 board will NOT function if it is
plugged into a standard ISA slot.
Normally, plugging in the PCI-based Voyager
64 will disable any built-in video adapter. If
this does not disable your built-in video
adapter, your computer documentation
should provide the necessary instructions.
2. Select any available PCI-Bus expansion slot.
3. Remove the screw and the metal plate that
covers the external access to the slot you
have selected.
Remove any existing VGA/EGA card before
installing the Voyager 64.
