Adding an expansion card
The E-3200 chassis has three expansion slots for PCI/ISA cards and one
slot for an AGP card.
The riser card has two PCI connectors and one shared PCI/ISA connector.
For the shared slot, so you can install either a PCI or ISA expansion card,
but not both. The AGP connector is on the system board.
Some ISA expansion cards have jumpers or switches that set interrupts and
I/O addresses. They come with instructions that explain how to set them to
avoid hardware conflicts. Follow the instructions carefully.
1.
Set any jumpers and switches on the card, if required in the card
instructions.
2.
Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord.
3.
Open the case, observing the “Static Electricity Precautions” on
page 2.
4.
Remove the slot cover bracket by pressing downward and outward on
the tab.
To add a PCI/ISA expansion card
Important!
The on-board AGP is
automatically disabled if an
AGP add-in card is used.
