Specifications
Scenario 2:
Your system power supply does not have a High-End power connector and therefore does not
conform to the PCI Express High-End power specification. Before continuing installation, you must
ensure your system has the minimum recommended power requirements.
Use the “Y” power cable supplied with your Wildcat Realizm 800 to connect to the system power
supply. The “Y” power cable allows you to connect two independent power cables from the system
power to supply power to the card. The connections you use must be the initial connections closest
to the power supply.
NOTE: Only follow these instructions for using the supplied “Y” power
cable if the system power supply does not provide a High-End
power connector for the graphics card
1. Locate the power connection on the Wildcat Realizm 800 (see diagram below). Connect the
single end of the “Y” power cable to the Wildcat Realizm 800.
2. Locate a single connector on each of the two (system) power supply cables. The cables must
be 1.) independent of one another and 2.) the two closest to the power supply.
3. Plug the two free ends of the “Y” power cable (the one you plugged into the Wildcat Realizm
800) into the two (system) power supply cables.
Completing Installation
1. Replace the system cover.
2. Plug your CRT monitor or flat panel display into the appropriate connector on the graphic card.
A DVI to standard 15-pin converter is supplied for connecting analog monitors. If you are using
one monitor, plug it into the connector that is closest to the motherboard. All display cables
MUST be connected before your computer is powered on to allow the operating system and
video drivers to properly detect the display configurations.
3. Power up the system and note the detection of the new graphics hardware. Click to cancel the
new hardware installation wizard.
4. Install the 3Dlabs Wildcat Realizm driver. For additional information on driver installation,
consult the 3Dlabs Wildcat Realizm User’s Guide. The Wildcat Realizm User’s Guide and
current graphics card driver is available from
http://www.3dlabs.com/support/
5. Reboot the system after driver installation has completed.
