Adding or replacing add-in cards
An add-in card is a card used in your computer to add functionality to the
system. Use the following instructions to replace, add, or reseat an add-in card.
To replace, add, or reseat an add-in card:
1
Identify the computer case style. For more information, see “Identifying
the computer case style” on page 222.
2
Open the case using the instructions in “Opening the case” on page 223.
3
For more stability, place your computer on its side. Place your computer
on a towel or other non-abrasive surface to avoid scratching the
computer case.
4
Disconnect any cables that are attached to the card, noting their locations
and orientation. (You will reconnect the cables after you install the new
card.) See the add-in card documentation for further instructions.
