Hardware Installation
Step 5.
Install Expansion Cards
WARNING
Power off your power supply completely when adding removing any
expansion cards or other system components. Failure to do so may
cause severe damage to both your motherboard and expansion
cards
.
1. Expansion Card Installation Procedure
1.1 Read the documentation for your expansion card and make any
necessary hardware or software setting changes, such as jumpers.
1.2 Remove the bracket plate on the slot you intend to use. Keep the
bracket for possible future use.
1.3 Carefully align the card’s connectors and press firmly.
1.4 Secure the card on the slot with the screw you removed above.
1.5 Jump to step 6 to finish installation, then set the IRQ and DMA as
follows.
2. Assigning IRQs for PCI Expansion Cards
An IRQ number is automatically assigned to PCI expansion cards. In the
PCI bus design, the BIOS automatically assigns an IRQ to a PCI slot that
contains a card requiring an IRQ. To install a PCI card, you need to set the
INT (interrupt) assignment. Since all the PCI slots on this motherboard use
an INTA #, set the jumpers on your PCI cards to INTA.
