Installation
Hardware Installation
WARNING: PCI Express cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded before opening your computer case or touching your PCI Express card. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI Express card by its edges and not the gold connectors.
Hardware Installation
- Turn your computer off and any peripherals connected to the computer (i.e. Printers, external hard drives, etc.). Unplug the power cable from the rear of the power supply on the back of the computer and disconnect all peripheral devices.
- Remove the cover from the computer case. See documentation for your computer system for details.
- Locate an open PCI Express slot and remove the metal cover plate on the rear of the computer case (Refer to documentation for your computer system for details.). Note that this card will work in PCI Express slots of additional lanes (i.e. x4, x8 or x16 slots).
- Connect either an LP4 Molex or SATA Power connector from the computer power supply to the appropriate connector on the card.
- Gently insert the card into the open PCI Express slot and fasten the bracket to the rear of the case.
- Place the cover back onto the computer case.
- Insert the power cable into the socket on the power supply and reconnect all other connectors removed in Step 1.
Driver Installation
- If the Network Adapter Card is installed on a computer with Windows 8 or higher/ Windows Server 2012 or higher, your computer will automatically detect the Network Adapter Card and install all the required drivers.
- If you’re running a different Operating System, or the drivers do not automatically install:
- Navigate to www.StarTech.com/ST4000PEXPSE and click the Drivers/Downloads tab.
- Under Driver(s), download the Driver Package for your operating system, and follow the steps outlined in the Installation guide, that’s included in the Driver Package.
Confirm Installation
To confirm installation on a computer running a version of Windows, complete the following
- On your computer, navigate to Device Manager.
- Under Network adapters, confirm that the number of Realtek adapters corresponding to the number of RJ45 ports on the card are listed.
In some cases, an exclamation mark appears next to devices that aren’t installed correctly. If the driver wasn’t installed correctly, try installing the driver again.
