Troubleshooting

• USB devices (such as keyboards or mice) connected to this card will be available to use after Windows
boots normally. However, USB devices connected to this device cannot be used for BIOS settings,
MS-DOS mode, or Safe mode in Windows. For best results, connect USB keyboards and mice to a USB
port on the PC's motherboard.
• This card supports ACPI power management, but does not support remote wake up.
• Not all peripheral devices support Windows Server operating systems. Buffalo supports use in Server
environments when using supported Buffalo products. If 4 GB of memory or more are installed on 32-
bit versions of Windows Server operating systems, the card may not function properly.
• Energy saving modes such as standby, hibernation, and sleep may not be available for some
computers with this card installed.
• If connected to a first generation PCI Express slot, the transmission speed of this card is limited to a
maximum of 2.5 Gbps. Usable speeds will be even lower.
This section lists some common problems with solutions for each.

General Limitations

Common Problems

If the boot hard drive (the hard drive with the OS on it) is
connected to the computer internally, refer to the manual
of your computer to make sure that it's installed properly.
A new expansion card may cause I/O port address duplication.
Check all settings for all cards. Remove cards one at a time if
necessary to confirm which cards are causing the problem.
If the computer still does not boot up after removing the
IFC-PCIE2U3S2, the computer itself may be broken. Please
contact the vendor you purchased your computer from.
Turn off your computer and reinstall the card. If there is an
empty PCI Express slot available, try to install the card in a
different PCI Express slot.
