1.11.2 Installing an AGP CardWhen installing an AGP card, make sure that the IRQ required by the card is not
already assigned to a PCI or ISA device to avoid resource conflicts.
Follow these steps when installing an AGP card:
1. Locate the AGP slot on the main board. See Figure 1-1 for the slot location.
2. Insert an AGP card into the slot. Make sure that the card is properly seated.
