# DMA Card Installation

All software setup/installation is done on the secondary computer that is connected to the FPGA DMA card by way of USB! DO NOT install/setup this software onto the primary computer in which you installed the DMA Kings board into the motherboard's PCIe (x1 or above) slot. Installing files onto the wrong computer may result in detection.

1. Change the following BIOS settings on the Gaming-PC

   * **On Intel** disable VT-d
   * **On AMD** disable IOMMU

2. Download [DMAKINGS\_DRIVER.exe](https://mega.nz/file/0IYHDYoa#308uQGhqm7NXCkMC67vZVfLPAx9PIFNtJyhxfLxbnS8) and Run as admin
