Hold the card along the top corners with the components

facing down and guide it into the slot.

Once the connectors reach the slot, push the card in firmly

into place. If it does not go in smoothly, do not force it; pull

the card all the way out and try again.

Replace the slot cover bracket by inserting it into the small

metal holder below the option slots.

Removing an Option Card

You may need to remove an option card installed in your
computer to access components on the main system board-to
change a jumper setting, for example. You may also want to

remove a card if you no longer need it. Refer to the illustrations

on pages 3-14 and 3-15 as you follow these steps:

1.

If you are removing a card from one of the full-length slots,

first remove the retaining screw securing the option card to
the computer. Then pull the card straight out of the slot.

2.

If you are removing a card from one of the half-length slots,

first remove the slot cover bracket. Then pull the card

straight out of the slot.

3.

Set the card aside with the component side facing up.
