Remove the card you’re installing from its packaging and hold it by its corners, taking care
not to touch the gold connector or any of the components on the card.

8

Align the card’s connector with the expansion slot and carefully press it to the right until the
connector is inserted all the way into the slot.

Press the card gently but firmly until the connector is fully inserted.

m Don’t rock the card from side to side; instead, press the card straight into the slot.

m Don’t force the card. If you meet a lot of resistance, pull the card out. Check the

connector and the slot for damage or obstruction, then try inserting the card again.

m Pull the card gently to see if it is properly connected. If it resists and stays in place, and if

its gold connectors are barely visible, the card is connected.

Attach the PCI/AGP card to the connector by pushing it in sideways.
Be sure to engage the card in this slot on the back panel.
