Installing and Replacing Desktop Board Components Installing and Removing an AGP Card CAUTION When installing any AGP card in the desktop board, ensure that it is fully seated in the AGP connector before you power on the system. If the card is not fully seated in the AGP connector, an electrical short may result across the AGP connector pins. Depending on the over-current protection of the power supply, certain board components and/or traces may be damaged. The AGP connector supports 0.8 V (4x and 1x) and 1.5 V (8x) AGP cards. The desktop board has an integrated AGP card retention mechanism (RM). Installing an AGP Card Follow these instructions to install an AGP card: 1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 27. 2. Place the card in the AGP connector. 3. Press down on the card until it is completely seated in the AGP connector and the card retention notch snaps into place around the RM pin. 4. Secure the card's metal bracket to the chassis back panel with a screw. Removing the AGP Card Follow these instructions to remove the AGP card from the RM (see Figure 10): 1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 27. 2. Remove the screw (B) that secures the card's metal bracket (A) to the chassis back panel. 3. Push back on the RM lever (C), as shown in Figure 10, until the retention pin completely clears the notch in the card. 4. Pull the card straight up (D). B D A C OM15031 Figure 10.
