Option cards fit in the slots only one way but be sure to examine the card first and follow the instructions closely. 1. Decide which option slot you want to use and then remove the retaining screw from the top of the metal slot cover on the rear panel. Keep the screw to secure the option card to the computer. Lift out the cover and keep it in a safe place in case you remove the option card later. 2. Unpack the option card and adjust any switches or jumper connections on it if necessary. (For example, a memory expansion card usually contains DIP switches that you need to set. See the option card instructions.) When you handle the card, be careful not to touch any of the contacts on the circuit board, especially the gold-edge connections. If you need to put it down before you install it, place it on top of its original packing material with the component side facing down. Note: Pay attention to the warnings in your option card instructions. Most cards have delicate static-sensitive components that you should not touch. Keep the card's packing materials in case you remove the card later. 3. Grip the card firmly by the top corners and position it at the top of the slot. Make sure the contact pins point down and the components face the inside of the main unit. 4. Slide the card straight into the slot as shown in Figure 4-5, guiding it down the black plastic guide plate at the front end of the computer. When the card is almost all the way in, make sure the tab at the bottom of the metal adapter plate on the end of the card goes into the corresponding notch at the back of the computer. 37
