Installing a PCI card

This section contains instructions for installing a PCI card. PCI cards for your computer must be no longer than 6.88 inches long.

Use these instructions in conjunction with the instructions that come with your PCI card:

1If you have a video input card already installed in your computer and you’re going to install a PCI card in the lower PCI slot, remove the video input card temporarily to give yourself more room while you install the PCI card. Unscrew the screw on the front of the vertical plate that holds the video input card in place and remove the card as shown. (You’ll reinstall the card later.)

Skip this step if there is not a video input card installed on your logic board or if you’re installing the PCI card in the uppermost PCI slot.
