Troubleshooting
1. If I’ve lost my CD, what can I do?
The CD contains software drivers and manual which can be obtained from D-Link (see
Technical Support below). Windows 2000 or XP in most cases will automatically install the
correct drivers.
2. What do I do if the installed card does not
seem to function properly?
•Check that the card appears under
START>CONTROLPANEL>SYSTEM>HARDW
ARE>DEVICE MANAGER>NETWORK
ADAPTERS.
•If it does not appear, make sure you have
inserted the PCI card correctly or try inserting the
card into an alternative PCI slot.
•If it appears with an error “!” or “?”, remove or
uninstall the device by right clicking on the
device. Restart the computer, upon restart
Windows will redetect it. If error persists, try
removing the card and uninstalling the driver.
Repeat the installation process.
