English Installing Add-In Cards At some point, you may add an AGP or PCI card to the computer to accommodate a new component, such as a scanner, or to upgrade an existing card. You need a #2 Phillips screwdriver and a medium flat-blade screwdriver. You also need any software (for example, drivers) supplied with the card. Warning: Do not overload the system by installing add-in cards that draw excessive current. The system is designed to provide 2 amps (average) of +5 V power for each board/card in the computer. The total +5 V current draw in a fully loaded system (one with all add-in card slots filled) must not exceed the total number of slots multiplied by 2 amps. Avertissement : Ne surchargez pas l'ordinateur en installant des cartes d'extension qui consomment beaucoup de courant. L'ordinateur est conçu pour fournir un courant de 2 ampères (en moyenne), +5 volts, à chaque carte installée sur l'ordinateur. La consommation totale de courant de +5 V sur un ordinateur entièrement chargé (dont tous les logements de cartes sont occupés) ne doit pas excéder le nombre total de supports multiplié par 2 ampères. To add or replace an add-in card: 1 Turn off the computer and all peripherals. 2 Disconnect the modem/phone cable. 3 Disconnect the power cord and all other attached cables (such as the keyboard, mouse, and monitor). 4 Remove the side panel (see "Removing the Side Panel" on page 7). upgrading and servicing the pc 15 Filename: ma1rwsc.doc Title: HP-Print2k.dot Template: HP-Print2K.dot Author: Ann Schmidt Last Saved By: Jerry C.

Installing Add-In Cards
At some point, you may add an AGP or PCI card
to the computer to accommodate a new
component, such as a scanner, or to upgrade an
existing card.
You need a #2 Phillips screwdriver and a
medium flat-blade screwdriver. You also need
any software (for example, drivers) supplied with
the card.
Warning:
Do not overload the system
by installing add-in cards that draw
excessive current. The system is designed
to provide 2 amps (average) of +5 V
power for each board/card in the
computer. The total +5 V current draw in
a fully loaded system (one with all add-in
card slots filled) must not exceed the total
number of slots multiplied by 2 amps.
Avertissement :
Ne surchargez pas
l’ordinateur en installant des cartes
d’extension qui consomment beaucoup de
courant. L’ordinateur est conçu pour
fournir un courant de 2 ampères (en
moyenne), +5 volts, à chaque carte
installée sur l’ordinateur. La
consommation totale de courant de +5 V
sur un ordinateur entièrement chargé
(dont tous les logements de cartes sont
occupés) ne doit pas excéder le nombre
total de supports multiplié par 2 ampères.
To add or replace an add-in card:
1
Turn off the computer and all peripherals.
2
Disconnect the modem/phone cable.
3
Disconnect the power cord and all other
attached cables (such as the keyboard, mouse,
and monitor).
4
Remove the side panel (see “Removing the
Side Panel” on page 7).
