2.You do not need to remove the subassembly to install an option card. If you install a display adapter card, you may need to change the settings of jumpers J1 and J2. If this is the case, see page
3.Remove the retaining screw from the top of the metal option slot cover; hold on to the screw as you remove it so it doesn’t fall into the computer. Lift out the slot cover.
Keep the screw to secure the option card to the computer. Store the slot cover in a safe place in case you remove the option card later.
4.Unpack the option card and adjust any switches or jumpers on it, if necessary. (Check the option card instructions.) When you handle the card, be careful not to touch any of the components on the circuit board, especially the gold- edged connector pins. If you need to set it down before you install it, place it gently on top of its original packing material with the component side facing up. Keep the packing materials in case you remove the card later.
