Figure 12. Installing an Add-in Board

b.Insert the board until its edge connector is aligned with an expansion-slot receptacle.

c.Using evenly distributed pressure, push the board straight in until it is fully inserted in the slot.

d.Reinstall the bracket screw you removed in step 5.

7.Attach any cables needed to connect the add-in board to internal components. For more information, see the manufacturer’s user’s manual. Note the following:

∙If the board requires a cable to be attached to a device on the other side of the chassis, a slot on the riser card/ fan support provides a way to route cables without interfering with the system cover.

∙If the board is a video-capture or other video board that requires a pass-through VGA connection, connect the pass-through cable to the VESA feature connector (see the illustration in the back of this manual).

8.Replace the bottom panel. Set the system upright and replace the system cover. Reconnect peripheral devices, plug in the power cord, and boot the system.
