WARNING Your PC Compatibility Card contains one socket for additional video RAM. To avoid damage to your computer, Apple recommends that you have your Apple-authorized dealer install additional video RAM (for a fee). If you attempt to install additional video RAM yourself, any damage you may cause to your equipment will not be covered by the limited warranty on your computer. See an Apple-authorized dealer or service provider for additional information about this or any other warranty question.

Removing the card

1Open the computer.

IMPORTANT For detailed instructions on opening your Power Macintosh 7300 computer, including important precautions, see Appendix B. To learn how to open your Power Macintosh 4400 computer, see the PC Compatibility Card Update that came with your computer.

2Remove any cables from the PC Compatibility Card ports.

If you have not already done so, remove the loopback cable, and the PC game controller cable (if one is attached), from the ports on the back of the PC Compatibility Card.

3If necessary, disconnect the audio cables from the PC Compatibility Card.

Because the audio cables can be difficult to remove, it’s best to leave them connected if possible. If you feel you can pull the card out and access the DIMM slot without disconnecting the audio cables, leave the cables in place.
