4Disconnect the PS/2 serial-port cable from the system board (see "Mini Tower Computer System Board Components" on page 13).

5If necessary, disconnect any external cables connected to the adapter.

6Ease the PS/2 serial-port adapter bracket out of its slot.

7If you are removing the adapter permanently, install a filler bracket in the empty card-slot opening.

NOTE: Installing filler brackets in empty card-slot openings is necessary to maintain FCC certification of the computer. The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of your computer and maintain the airflow that cools your computer.

8Before you close the card retention mechanism, ensure that:

•The tops of all cards and filler brackets are flush with the alignment guide.

•The notch in the top of the card or filler bracket fits around the alignment guide.

9Secure any remaining card(s) by closing the card retention latch and snapping it into place.
