Before You Begin

To ensure a quick and easy card installation, please read the following section before

installing your card.

System Requirements

•APC and BIOS that supports PCI Local Bus Specification v2.0 or higher (Make sure

that your BIOS is updated) running Windows XP, 2000, NT, Me, 98, 95 OSR2, Netware

Server 5.x, Linux

•An available bus-mastering 32- or 64-bit PCI slot

•Cat 5e (or higher) UTP cable (for best results)

Contents

This package should contain:

•1x PCI Gigabit Ethernet network adapter

•1x driver disk

Installation

This section will guide you through the installation of your card and the related

software. Please read through the instructions carefully and complete each step in the

order listed.

Installing the Card

1. Make sure that your computer power cord is unplugged and you are grounded.

2. Remove the cover of your system (see your computer's user manual for details, if

necessary) and gently turn your computer onto its side.

3. Locate an empty PCI slot (usually white in colour, a 64-bit slot will be longer than a

32-bit slot) and remove the metal plate that covers the rear bracket. You may need a

Phillips screwdriver to perform this step. Hang on to the screw! You will need it to

secure the card later.

4. Gently insert the card into the empty slot, making sure it is firmly seated.

NOTE: If you are using the ST1000BT64-bit card in a 32-bit slot, make sure that the

exposed end of the card is not in contact with any conducting parts on your

motherboard. Not all motherboards allow 64-bit cards to fit into 32-bit slots.

5. Secure the card in place using the screw you removed in Step 3.

6. Put the computer case back on.

7. Plug the computer power cord back into an appropriate power source.

Installing the Drivers

NOTE: The following instructions are for Windows users only. Linux or Netware users

should consult the Readme.txt files in their respective folders. Depending on your OS

and the configuration of your system, the instructions below may not be identical to the

instructions on your screen.

Windows XP/2000/98/Me

1. Windows will automatically detect the new hardware. Click Next.

2. Select "Search for the best driver for your device (Recommended)” and click Next.

3. Insert your driver disk into the disk drive, browse to the WinXP, Win2000, WinMe, or

Win98 folder on the disk drive, then click Next.

4. Click Next. Windows will now install the driver.

5. When the download is complete, click Finish. If prompted, choose to restart your

system.

Windows 95B

1. Windows will automatically detect the new hardware. Select “Driver from disk

provided by hardware manufacturer” and click OK.

2. Insert the driver disk into the disk drive. Browse to the Win95B folder on the driver

disk and click OK. You may be required to provide your Windows 95 installation

disk.

3. When all drivers have been installed, reboot your computer to initialize the network

function.

Windows NT 4

1. Click on Start, then Settings, then Control Panel.

2. Click on the Network icon.

3. In the Network Settings box, choose “Add Adapter.”

4. Select “<Other> Requires disk from manufacturer” and press Enter.

5. Insert the drive disk into your disk drive. Browse to the WinNT4 folder on the driver

disk and click OK.

6. Windows NT will begin the binding process. If any additional network software

options were installed, you may be prompted for specific information about these

packages.

7. When installation is complete, restart your computer.

Monitoring Your Card

The card uses three Link/Activity LEDs to indicate the connection rate and activity of

the card. The three LEDs are for 10, 100, or 1000 Mbits/sec. A solid LED indicates that a

link has been established at that rate. A blinking LED indicates that there is traffic flow

on the network.

If no Link/Activity LED is lit, there is a connection error. Make sure that all devices are

turned on and that the network cable is properly connected at both ends. Also make sure

that your network cables comply with EIA/TIA 568 and at least Cat 5e specifications.

If problems persist, power down all devices and disconnect all plugs. Wait at least ten

seconds then plug the devices back in and power them up.

Connecting Your Card to Your Network

Depending on how you are planning on using the card, the device you are connecting it

to and the type of cable you need may differ. To take advantage of the card’s Gigabit

(1000 Mbits/sec) capacity, it is recommended that you always use at least Cat. 5e

Ethernet cable. If you are unsure of the type of cable required for your device, consult

your device manufacturer.

NOTE: StarTech.com carries a wide range of Cat. 5e and Cat. 6 Ethernet cables in various

colors and lengths. For more information on these products, as well as tips and ideas for

setting up and running your network, visit http://www.startech.com and click on the

Networking tab near the top of the screen.

•If you are connecting your computer directly to another computer, you need to use a

crossover cable.

•If you are connecting your computer to a hub or switch, you should use a straight-

through cable.

•If you are connecting your computer to the Internet via a DSL or cable modem, you

should use the cable recommended by the modem manufacturer.

Tips for Setting Up Your Network

For information and help on setting up your network, please consult the manufacturer of

your operating system. The following is for tips and troubleshooting purposes only and

is intended for Microsoft users on a local area network.

Make sure your computers are configured properly

For your convenience, you should configure each of your computers so that they can

“see” each other and share devices and files. To do this, you have to make sure that the

following have been installed on your computers:

•Client for Microsoft Networks

•TCP/IP (Internet Protocol)

•File and Print Sharing

These clients, protocols, and services can be found in the following locations:

documentation for details.

Make sure all your computers are on the same workgroup

To be able to communicate properly with each other, each computer must be located on

the same workgroup. Each computer within a workgroup must have a unique name. To

ensure compatibility between each version of Windows, keep your computer names

under 13 characters long. To view, add, or edit your computer’s name, do the following:

Windows XP

1. Click Start and then Control Panel.

2. Double-click System then click on the computer name tab.

Windows 2000

1. Click on Start, then Settings, then Control Panel.

2. Double-click on System.

3. Click on the Network Identification tab.

Windows Me/98/95

1. Click Start, then Settings, then Control Panel.

2. Double-click Network, then click the Identification tab.

Make Sure Your Sharing is Set Up Properly

1. Go to your network dialog box using the procedure explained under “Make sure

your computers are configured properly.”

2. Click on File and Print Sharing.

3. Choose whether you want to install one, both, or neither of these options. Click OK.

4. Decide what files or folders you want to share. You can call up sharing options by

right-clicking on a file or folder and choose “Sharing” (Windows 2000/Me/98/95) or

“Sharing and Security” (Windows XP).
