**Make sure these settings are turned off on the main PC as well.**

**Step-by-Step Instructions:**

**1. Power Off and Unplug the PC**

* **Shut down your computer completely.**
* **Unplug it from the power outlet.**
* **Disconnect all peripherals (monitor, keyboard, etc.).**

**2. Open the PC Case**

* **Use a screwdriver to remove the screws on the side panel (usually the left side).**
* **Slide the panel off to access the internal components.**

**3. Locate an Available Expansion Slot**

* **Look for an empty SLI or PCIe slot on the motherboard (based on your motherboard).**
* **Remove the metal slot cover on the back of the case for that slot.**

**4. Insert the DMA Card**

* **Align the card’s connector with the slot.**
* **Firmly but gently push the card down into the slot until it's fully seated.**
* **Secure the card with a screw at the back bracket if necessary.**

**5. Close the Case**

* **Replace the side panel and screw it back in place.**

**6. Reconnect and Boot Up**

* **Plug in the power cable and peripherals.**
* **Turn on your PC.**

**If you're confused about any install steps refer to the video below.**

**Once the DMA card is installed**

1. **Plug one end of the provided USB-C cable into the DATA port on the DMA card.**
2. **Plug the other end into the second PC.**

### Final Step <a href="#final-step" id="final-step"></a>

**Run the Speed Test**

1. [Download ](https://drive.proton.me/urls/DE6Q9PT3GR#0iIT4uFsNpFa)this driver onto your second PC
2. [**Download and open**](https://drive.proton.me/urls/V98MBZNGZC#DUME8woLuCAl) the provided Speed Test program on the second PC.
3. Once it’s open, **press `1` on your keyboard**.
4. This will **start the speed test** and begin communicating with the DMA card, as shown in the image below.

### You're now ready to start cheating, open a DMA cheat loader of your choice and have fun. <a href="#youre-now-ready-to-start-cheating-open-a-dma-cheat-loader-of-your-choice-and-have-fun" id="youre-now-ready-to-start-cheating-open-a-dma-cheat-loader-of-your-choice-and-have-fun"></a>

### TROUBLESHOOTING <a href="#troubleshooting" id="troubleshooting"></a>

### VM INNIT FAILURE <a href="#vm-innit-failure" id="vm-innit-failure"></a>

**In most cases, flipping the cable 180 degrees in the data port resolves about 90% of connection issues. If that doesn't work, make sure the cable is fully inserted into the port until you hear the Windows connection sound—this typically fixes the remaining 10% of problems.**

### Slow Speeds or card failing. <a href="#slow-speeds-or-card-failing" id="slow-speeds-or-card-failing"></a>

**This could be one of two things: either your second PC doesn't meet the hardware requirements to support the DMA card, or the card isn't seated properly in the PCIe slot. Try switching it to a different PCIe slot if available—some slots provide better compatibility or bandwidth, depending on your motherboard.**
