Expansion Card
The system board contains sockets in which expansion cards (such as the graphics controller card)
are installed. See Chapter 8, “Upgrading the System,” and the System Board Manual for more
information on expansion cards and their sockets.
To avoid damaging an expansion card and voiding its warranty, take the following precautions:
♦
Handle the expansion card only by the edges. Do not touch the metallic finger contacts.
♦
Do not bend, twist, drop, or otherwise handle the expansion card carelessly.
♦
Do not expose the expansion card to moisture or extreme temperatures.
♦
Do not remove the expansion card from its antistatic package until you are ready to install it.
To replace an expansion card:
WARNING The system is always on when connected to AC power. Before performing this
task, disconnect the system’s power cord from its AC power outlet.
1. Disconnect any external and internal cables from the expansion card.
2. Remove and retain the retaining screw that secures the card to the card guide.
