Installing expansion cardsThis section explains how to install an expansion card. The onboard
expansion slots support PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect)
cards. Before installing expansion cards, observe ESD precautions and
Pre-installation precautions as noted on page 40.
Note: The BIOS setup automatically detects and assigns resources
to the new device (applicable only to Plug-and-Play expansion
cards).
To install an expansion card
1 Remove the system cover. See “To remove the top panel” on page
43 for more information.
2 Loosen the thumbscrews on the expansion card riser bracket (1),
then gently lift the riser from the chassis (2).
3 Remove the expansion slot cover from the rear of the metal
bracket.
