Changing Your Computer’s Hardware Configuration
Installing a PCI-Type I/O Board
The illustration below shows the physical layout of the PCI slots:
Figure 2-13
PCI Slots in a J5000/J7000
Follow these steps to install a PCI board into your computer:
1.
Remove
the
top
and
right-side
panels
from
your
computer,
as
described in the section “Opening the System Unit,” earlier in this
chapter.
2.
Remove the PCI card retaining clip—the instructions for doing so are
on the label on the side of the power supply, right above the PCI slots.
This is a simple snap-on clip; no tools are required to remove it or
install it again. (Note: during re-installation of the retaining clip,
make sure the hook on the bottom of the clip fits into the hole on the
floor of the chassis.)
3.
Determine the appropriate slot(s) for the card you are inserting.
Relevant information includes the voltage (3.3 or 5 volts) and the
speed (33 or 66 MHz). Again, when multi-card sets are inserted, it’s
the
bottom
card that goes into the indicated slot. Thus, to insert a
V
ISUALIZE FX

card (a two-card sandwich) “into” Slot 7, you’d put the
bottom card into Slot 7, and the top card into Slot 6.
