Align the pins of the PCI riser card with the
slots on the mother board, and securely
insert it.
Important Do not touch the terminal part of riser cards or PCI cards and the signal pins of
electric parts installed on the board. Installing boards with dirt or oil can cause
malfunction.
Note
•
Make sure that the head of a PCI card bracket is seated into the fixed slot of PCI riser
card.
•
Depending on type of PCI cards, the terminal part of the PCI card may be too large to

apply excessive pressure on the board, a PCI card or riser card might break.
