7.Before installing a video controller card you may have to disable the on-board video controller by moving a jumper on the motherboard (check the documentation that came with the card to make sure). If you do not move this jumper, it is possible that neither the card or the motherboard video controller will work correctly.

In addition, if the card uses the video feature connector on the motherboard, you are advised to plug the video feature cable into the motherboard before you install the card (otherwise, the card may get in the way of the connector).

Refer to the motherboard layout diagram in Appendix A, “Inside the System Unit”, to locate the VESA options jumper block and the video feature connector.

8.Position the expansion card alongside the slot in which you wish to install it. Align the rear of the card with the slot in the rear of the system unit, and, if the card is full length, align the front of the card with the corresponding card guide.

9.Slide the card into the slot ensuring that the card’s edge connector engages correctly.

10.Secure the card by replacing the screw that you removed in Step 5.

11.Connect any necessary signal cables to the card.
