Caution	Some computers have a large, black-ridged heat sink that prevents boards from
	using most PCI board slots. Your Matrox Meteor-II must not touch this heat sink.
	Therefore, choose a slot where the board completely avoids it.

3.If present, remove the blank metal plate located at the back of the selected slot. Keep the removed screw; you will need it to fasten the Matrox Meteor-II board.

4.Carefully position Matrox Meteor-II in the selected PCI slot as illustrated below. If you are using a tower computer, orient the board to suit the board slots in your computer.
