Setting up an Expansion Slot
Once you have set up the computer, set up an expansion slot by
performing the following steps:
1. Select a 32-bit or 64-bit PCI expansion slot.
PCI slots are shorter than ISA or EISA slots and are usually white
or ivory. Commonly, three PCI slots (one of which may be a
shared ISA/PCI slot) are available. If an ISA board exists in the
shared slot, you cannot use the slot for a PCI board; if a PCI board
exists in the shared slot, you cannot use the slot for an ISA board.
2. Remove the cover plate from the selected expansion slot. Retain
the screw that held it in place; you will use it later to install the
board.
