What am I doing wrong? Please help

Post by Snapper »

Hi, I have purchase a PCIMAX3000+.
Inserted into free PCI slot...connected all the necessary bits as per Chapter 4 in manual.
(I am only using the 1Watt...infact we can only legally broadcast 1/2 a watt.
Do I need external power? Is this my issue? Nothing fancy added just the board.
Board not detected by my PC at all.... all drivers downloaded and installed... nothing... I have even spoken to it nicely !
Please someone talk mne through this in a jargon free way...... Trying to set this system up for the school kids and I am about to loose the plot!!

many thanks

Hi, white USB cable attached from PCI card to computer. PC has power to it and turned on.
I didn't attach a power cable to the PCI card itself...is that the issue? I thought I didn't need one? :-?
