Locate an available expansion slot.

Remove the slot cover adjacent to the selected slot (see “Removing a Slot Cover” on page 37).

4 Insert the add-in card into the PCI slot. Use a gentle rocking motion, pressing down until the card is fully seated.

✍Align the card's bracket so that the bottom of the bracket fits into the slot at the bottom of the chassis. Assure that the top of the bracket fits snugly against the chassis lip after the card is fully inserted.

5 Replace the screw that secures the card.
