Installing the hardware

You must open your computer to install the card.

Ensure that you have first disconnected your computer

from the mains power. If you are not familiar with the

internal setup of your computer, please consult your

computer manual or ask a qualified technician.

• Switch off your computer and all connected devices.

• Unplug your PC before beginning installation.

• Open the case of the computer.

• Hold the PCIe card at the edge of the board and insert

it into the free PCIe slot.

Note: Be aware that static electricity can damage both

the PCIe card and your computer. Ground yourself by

touching a metal object. Find a free PCIe slot. Remove

the plate for this slot. Keep the screw – you will need it

later to secure the PCIe card.

• Carefully push the card into the slot until the holding

bracket is lined up with the casing and the gold-plated

contacts have disappeared into the slot.

• Secure the card using the slot cover plate screw you

removed earlier.
