and system board.
2
Push the slot cover down until it rests firmly on the lip in the chassis.
All add-in card brackets and slot covers rest on this lip.
3
Replace the screw (removed earlier) to secure the I/O slot cover.

applications, turn off the power to all attached peripheral devices, shut
down the computer, and unplug the power cord.
