PCI and PCI Express Cards

7 Align the card in the connector and press down firmly. Ensure that the card

is fully seated in the connector slot.

8 Replace and tighten the screw to secure the card in the slot.
9 Connect any cables that should be attached to the card.

See the documentation for the card for information about the card’s cable
connections.

NOTICE:

Do not route card cables over or behind the cards, except for Vostro 220s,

which provides a cable clip in a chassis support bracket. Cables routed over the
cards, in the absence of a cable clip, can prevent the computer cover from closing
properly or cause damage to the equipment.

10 For the Vostro 220s, replace the chassis support bracket (see "Replacing the

Chassis Support Bracket" on page 57).

11 Follow the procedure in "After Working on Your Computer" on page 45.
12 Install any drivers required for the card as described in the documentation

for the card.

13 To complete the installation procedure, see "Configuring Your Computer

After Removing or Installing a PCI or PCI Express Card" on page 63.
