CNR Slot
This slot is used to insert CNR cards with Modem and Audio func-
tionality.
Note:
Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for the card
carefully. If the card is not Plug and Play, you may have to manually con-
figure the card before installation.
Follow these instructions to install an add-on card:
1.
Remove a blanking plate from the system case corresponding to the slot you
are going to use.
2.
Install the edge connector of the
add-on card into the expansion
slot. Ensure that the edge con-
nector is correctly seated in the
slot.
3.
Secure the metal bracket of the card to the system case with a screw.
Note:
For some add-on cards, for example graphics adapters and network adapters,
you have to install drivers and software before you can begin using the add-on
card.
