Removing Cards
CAUTION: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section,
follow the safety instructions on page 7.
1 Turn off the computer and devices, and disconnect them from their
electrical outlets.
NOTICE: To disconnect a network cable, first unplug the cable from your
computer and then unplug it from the network jack on the wall.
2 Press the power button.
Pressing the power button when the computer is not connected to an
electrical outlet discharges residual electricity and can help prevent
system board damage.
3 Remove the computer cover (see page 60).
4 Rotate the power supply (see page 62).
5 Disconnect any cables connected to the card.
6 Remove the screw from the card bracket.
7 Grasp the card by its top corners, and lift it from the system board.
8 If you are removing the card permanently, reinstall a filler bracket.
9 Rotate the power supply back into place (see page 64).
10 Replace the computer cover (see page 80).
11 Plug your computer and devices into their electrical outlets, and turn
them on.
