IMPORTANT The only way to disconnect power completely is to unplug the power cord. Make sure that at least one end of the power cord is within easy reach so that you can unplug the computer when you need to.

Installing an expansion card

If you purchased a monitor (video) card or other expansion card for your Macintosh, install it now. (See Appendix B, “Installing an Expansion Card,” for instructions.)

Note: Some Power Macintosh 9500 models do not include a factory-installed monitor card, so that you can install your own monitor card. If you have one of these models, there is no monitor port on the back of the computer. You need to install your monitor card now.

If you don’t have to install a monitor card or other expansion card, go on to the next section, “Connecting a Monitor.”

Connecting a monitor

You can connect many types of monitors to your Macintosh computer, including most standard monitors. See the Technical Information booklet that came with your computer for a complete list.

This section contains instructions on connecting most types of monitors. Monitors from manufacturers other than Apple may require adapters for their monitor cables and power cords. If you are connecting a non-Apple monitor, also refer to the instructions that came with the monitor.
