Removing or Installing an Add-in Card

An add-in card is a circuit board, such as a PCI or an AGP card, that fits into a PC add-in card slot. Your PC contains several add-in card slots that can be used to add components to your PC. The PC component configurations vary by model.

WARNING: Do not overload the system by installing add-in cards that draw excessive current. The system is designed to provide 2 amps (average) of +5 V power for each board/card in the PC. The total +5 V current draw in a fully loaded system (one with all add-in card slots filled) must not exceed the total number of slots multiplied by 2 amps.

A Phillips screwdriver is needed to remove, replace, or add an add-in card.
