3 How to Install Accessories In Your PC
Installing Accessory Boards
Installing the Board
1Disconnect the computer’s power supply cord.
2Remove the computer’s cover and power supply.
3Find a free slot. Some boards may have preferred locations and special installation instructions detailed in their manuals.
4Unscrew and remove the slot cover. Store it in a safe place.
If the slot cover is tight, loosen the screws on the adjacent slots.
5Hold the board horizontally by its “top” edge. Slide it into the board guide of the chosen slot. Do not bend the board.
6Align the board’s connector with the slot’s socket. Firmly press the board into the socket. Ensure the board’s connector engages completely with the socket and does not touch components on other boards.
