The OptiPlex GX1/GX1p mini tower computers have seven expansion-card slots. The riser board has four ISA expansion-card connectors and five PCI expansion-card connectors. Two PCI expansion-card connectors share expansion-card slots with two ISA connectors, resulting in a total of seven expansion-card slots (see Figure 1-11). The riser board is active, incorporating PCI-to-PCI bridging. The mini tower riser board includes the P1 connector (for connecting the NIC to the riser board cable) and an LED. If the LED is on, the riser board is receiving power; if off, the riser board is not receiving power.
