English
Installing the Board
1
Disconnect the computer’s power supply cord and any connection to
a telecommunications network.
2
Remove the computer’s cover and power supply.
3
Find a free slot. Some boards may have preferred locations and
special installation instructions detailed in their manuals.
4
Unscrew and remove the slot cover. Store it in a safe place.
If the slot cover is tight, loosen the screws on the adjacent slots. (See
diagram on facing page.)
5
Hold the board horizontally by its “top” edge. Slide it into the board
guide of the chosen slot. Do not bend the board. (See diagram on
facing page.)
6
Align the board’s connector with the slot’s socket and firmly press
into the socket. Ensure the board’s connector engages completely
with the socket and does not touch components on other boards.
7
Secure the board by replacing the slot cover screw.
If you loosened the screws on adjacent slots, tighten them. (See
diagram on facing page.)
8
If you install a VESA-standard video adapter board which uses the
integrated video graphics controller, connect the accessory board’s
cable to the VESA pass-through connector on the system board.
(See diagram on facing page.)
9
Install any other accessories before replacing the power supply and
the cover. Reconnect all cables and power cords.
