12 Installing the Hardware and Software

Turn off the power to your system, and discharge your body’s static
electric charge by touching a grounded surface — for example, the
metal surface of the power supply — before performing any
hardware procedure.

The manufacturer assumes no liability for any damage, caused
directly or indirectly, by improper installation of any components by
unauthorized service personnel. If you do not feel comfortable
performing the installation, consult a qualified computer technician.

Damage to system components, the accelerator card, and injury to
yourself may result if power is applied during installation.

Before you install your ALL-IN-WONDER card, we recommend
that you first uninstall the driver for your current video card, and

Note

reconfigure your operating system to use the standard display
driver (VGA) supplied with your operating system. For more
information about changing to the VGA driver, see your operating
system documentation.

Installing the Hardware

Now that you have prepared your computer, you are ready to
install your card. If you are not sure whether your card is PCI or
AGP (ALL-IN-WONDER RADEON is AGP-only), compare
the bottom edge of your card with the following illustration:

Or, if your computer has any on-board graphics
capability, you may need to disable it on the motherboard.

For more information, see your computer documentation.

Multiple monitor support

If you use multiple monitors, the ALL-IN-WONDER must be
the primary graphics card. Normally, the system BIOS
determines whether the AGP or PCI card will be the primary.
For PCI cards, the system normally assigns priority to the card
slots in order of their appearance. Please refer to your computer
system manual for more information.

Grasp the
new card
by the top
edge and
carefully
seat it
firmly into
the correct
slot (PCI or
AGP).
Ensure that
the metal
contacts
are
completely
pushed into
the slot.

Installing the Hardware and Software 15

If necessary, remove the metal cover from the empty
expansion slot that you select (PCI cards use a PCI slot;
AGP cards use the AGP slot), then align your new card

with an empty expansion slot, and press it in firmly
until fully seated.

Connecting your PC to a video source

To connect your computer to a VCR or camcorder, attach a
connector cable from the VCR or camcorder to the ATI Input
Adapter (see page 35). Most VCRs and camcorders have a
Composite video output, also referred to as a phono jack or
RCA output. A growing number of VCRs and camcorders
have another type of video output called S-Video, which
provides a higher quality display than Composite video.

To connect a VCR or camcorder
to your ALL-IN-WONDER

1

Turn off your computer and your VCR or camcorder.

2

Ensure your graphics card is installed correctly.

3

Determine if your VCR or camcorder has an S-Video or
Composite video connection.

4

Looking at the back of your computer, locate your graphics
card. Using the ATI Input Adapter, attach one end of the
cable to your graphics card and the other to your VCR or
camcorder.

Using a monitor vs. using the television display

Using your television for your computer’s display is ideal for
playing games, giving presentations, watching movies, and
browsing the Internet. The display on your monitor may change
or look squashed. This occurs because the display adjusts to fit
the dimensions of your television. To correct the monitor’s
display, use the controls on the monitor to adjust the display size
and position.

Older monitors and large, speciality monitors may not work
with television display enabled. If you experience problems
when television display is enabled, disable television display to
restore your monitor’s display.

Adjusting the monitor display

The size of the display on your monitor may be smaller and not
perfectly centered when you have television display enabled.
These effects are caused by the changes required to provide a
proper display on the television.

Use the controls available on the Adjustments tab on the
Monitor Properties page (click the Monitor button on the ATI
Displays page) to adjust the display on your monitor only. Click
the Te lev is io n button to adjust the television display only.

Troubleshooting

The following troubleshooting tips may help you if you
experience problems. Contact your dealer for more advanced
troubleshooting information.

Basic troubleshooting tips

• Check that the card is seated properly in its expansion slot.
If the problem still exists, try a different PCI expansion slot.

• Ensure that the monitor cable is securely fastened to the
card.

• Make sure that the monitor and computer are plugged in
and receiving power.

• If necessary, disable any built-in graphics capabilities on
your mother board. For more information, consult your
computer’s manual or manufacturer. (Note: some
manufacturers do not allow the built-in graphics to be
disabled or to become the secondary display.)

• Make sure that you selected the appropriate monitor when
you installed your enhanced driver.

• If you use an indoor antenna, you will get the best results
with an amplified model. Place it as far away from the PC
monitor as possible, to avoid interference.

• Splitting the cable or antenna input can reduce the signal
quality. For the best reception, connect the cable or
antenna directly to your card.

• Make sure that your audio card’s line input is active (see

Windows® Vo l um e Co n tr o l on page 30).

Outdoor Antenna Grounding

- Since an outdoor antenna or cable
system is connected to the product, be sure that the antenna or cable
system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to
proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to the antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection of
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

•

Lightning

- For added protection for this product during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the wall outlet, and disconnect the antenna or cable
system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and
power-line surges.

•

Power Lines

- An outside antenna system should not be located in the
vicinity of overhead power lines or other light or power circuits, or
where it can fall into such power lines or circuits.

• When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be
taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact
with them may be fatal.

•
