2.8 - Installing Add-In Cards


Before installing add-in cards, it’s helpful to know if they are fully compatible with
your motherboard. For this reason, we’ve provided the diagrams below, showing
the slots that appear on your motherboard.

PCI-E x16 slot

PCI-E x8 slot

32/33 PCI 2.3 slot


Simply find the appropriate slot for your add-in card and insert the card firmly.
Do not force any add-in cards into any slots if they do not seat in place. It is
better to try another slot or return the faulty card rather than damaging both the
motherboard and the add-in card.

NOTE

YOU MUST ALWAYS unplug the power connector from the
motherboard before performing system hardware changes.
Otherwise you may damage the board and/or expansion
device.
