2.2. Hardware Installation
Now that you have prepared your computer, you are ready to install your graphics card.
Step 1.
Locate the PCI Express x16 slot. If necessary, remove the
metal cover from this slot; then align your graphics card with
the PCI Express x16 slot, and press it in firmly until the card is
fully seated.
Make sure that the gold edge connector of the graphics card is securely
inserted.
Step 2.
Replace the screw to fasten the card in place, and replace the
computer cover.
After installation, remember to connect the power cable to your graphics card, or the system
will not boot (refer to page 6 to see the details). Do not touch the card when it's operating to
prevent system instability.
Step 3.
Plug the display cable into your card; then turn on the computer
and monitor. To connect a D-Sub monitor to your graphics card,
use the D-Sub connector. To connect a flat panel display to your
graphics card, use the DVI-I connector. To connect an HDMI
monitor to your graphics card, use the HDMI connector.
