Expansion Board Removal
Remove an expansion board from the system by following these steps.
WARNING:
Before removing the system unit
cover, turn off the power and unplug the system
power cable. Power is removed only when the
power cable is unplugged.
1.
Remove the system unit cover as previously described.
2.
Label and disconnect any cables connected to the board.
3.
Remove the AGP video board, if the system has one (see “Removing an AGP
Video Board” later in this section).
4.
Remove the screw that secures the expansion board to the support bracket (see
Figure 3-7). Set the screw aside (it is used to secure the slot cover after the board
is removed).
5.
Pull the board out of the connector on the riser board. Do not rock a PCI board
to release it. Pull the board straight out of the expansion slot.
