4. The blanking plates described above are each secured
by a screw. Using the following guidelines decide in
which of the available slots you wish to install the card,
then remove the appropriate blanking plate.
In general it is easiest to start with the lowest slot and
work towards the top, but there a couple of exceptions.
If you are installing a card that uses the video feature
connector on the motherboard, it is best to install the
card in the lowest slot. If you are installing a drive
controller card that you want to connect to a drive in
the 5.25" drive bay it is easiest to install it in the top
slot.
To remove the blanking plate, first unscrew the securing
screw, then slide the plate out of its slot. Keep the
screw, you will use it later to secure the card.
5. Your are now ready to install the card. However, before
you do so you must first ensure that the card is correctly
configured for your system.
Information on configuring cards for use in the XEN is
given in the Appendix A at the rear of this manual. Use
this information in conjunction with the documentation
supplied with your card to configure the card so that
it will not clash with any of the features on the XEN
motherboard, or any other expansion cards already
installed.
