Replacement Note:
Align the card’s connector with the expansion slot and press until the
connector is inserted all the way into the slot. If you’re installing a 12-inch card, make sure
the card engages the appropriate slot in the PCI card guide.
• Don’t rock the card from side to side; instead, press the card straight into the slot.
• Don’t force the card. If you meet a lot of resistance, pull the card out. Check the
connector and the slot for damage or obstructions, then try inserting the card again.
• Pull the card gently to see if it is properly connected. If it resists and stays in place,
and if its gold connectors are barely visible, the card is connected.
