Installing expansion cards

The system comes with five PCI slots, one AGP slot, and an ASUS
proprietary Wi-Fi slot for installation of expansion cards.

4. Align the card connector with the

slot, then press firmly until the
card is completely seated on the
slot.

Make sure to unplug the power supply before installing or removing an
expansion card(s). Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both
the motherboard and the components.

To install an expansion card:

1. Before installing the expansion card, read the documentation that

came with it and make the necessary hardware settings for the card.

2. Lay the system on its side on a flat, stable surface.

3. Remove the metal bracket

opposite the slot that you intend
to use. Keep the metal bracket
screw for later use.
