In the interest of your own safety and the flawless functioning of your new PCTV 310i and computer system, note the following: Computer components are sensitive to static charge. Divert any electrostatic charge from your body before touching the components with your hands or any tools. Before opening the computer, make sure that the power plug is disconnected from the wall outlet.

Hardware Installation
Preparing Installation
The only tool you need for the installation is a screwdriver. Divert any possible electrostatic charge from your body by touching the casing of your PC. Turn off your computer and all peripheral devices. Disconnect the computer from the power supply and all necessary components. Loosen the computer cover screws and remove the cover. Remove the slot cover at the back of the computer. Make sure to keep the screws in a safe place.

Using PCTV 310i Hardware
Connect one internal audio cable plug to the internal audio output terminal of the PCTV310i card and the other plug to the internal audio input terminal of your sound card. To do so, hold the card at the top and push it down into the slot while applying even pressure at both ends. Press down on the upper edge so that the card fits firmly in the slot.
If you cannot easily insert the card into the slot, do not use force since this may bend the contact springs on the socket connector. Instead, remove the card and try to insert it again.
After Installation
After you have inserted the hardware, tighten the card retaining bracket firmly on the back of the computer. Now place the cover onto your computer and connect the peripheral devices.
