7. Remove the adapter from the static-protective package. Move the adapter directly from the static-protective package to the adapter slot. Avoid touching the components and gold-edge connectors on the adapter. 8. Install the adapter. a. Turn the adapter so that the adapter keys align correctly with the mini-PCI type III connector (PCI2) on the system board. Attention: To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the connectors, handle the clips gently. b. Insert the adapter into the connector at a slight angle and then press it toward the system board until the retaining clips snap into the closed positions. Also, make sure that the two stand-offs on the system board come through their holes in the video adapter and lock it in place. Note: If there is a gap between the adapter and the retaining clips, the adapter has not been properly installed. In this case, open the retaining clips and remove the adapter; then, reinsert the adapter. You might need to disengage the locking clips on the two stand-offs to remove the adapter. Attention: Be certain that the adapter is correctly seated in the expansion slot before you turn on the server. Incomplete installation of an adapter might damage the system board or the adapter. 9. Connect required cables to the adapter. Route cables so that they do not block the flow of air from the fans. 10. Replace any adapters that were removed in step 5 (see "Installing an adapter" on page 40). 11. If you have other options to install, do so now. 12. Replace the air baffle and air flow guide. 13. Replace the frame-support bracket (see "Removing and installing the support bracket" on page 38). 88 IBM xSeries 225 Types 8649: Hardware Maintenance Manual and Troubleshooting Guide

a.
Turn
the
adapter
so
that
the
adapter
keys
align
correctly
with
the
mini-PCI
type

at
a
slight
angle
and
then
press
it
toward

the
video
adapter
and
lock
it
in
place.
Note:
If
there
is
a
gap
