This mainboard has one AGP, one CNR and five 32-bit PCI slots. 

Follow the steps below to install an AGP/CNR/PCI expansion 
card.
1. Locate the AGP, CNR or PCI slots on the mainboard.
2. Remove the slot cover for this slot from the system chassis.
3. Insert the expansion card edge connector into the slot and press

it firmly down into it so that it is fully inserted.

4. Secure the expansion card bracket to the system chassis using 

the screw that held the slot cover in place.

PCI Slots

You can install 32-bit PCI interface expansion cards in PCI slots.   
Slot1 only supports PC5 Slave mode. It is recommended you give 
first priority to PCI 1~4 slots while inserting cards.   

4x AGP Slot

The 4x AGP slot is used to install a graphics adapter that supports 
the 4xAGP specification and has a 4x AGP edge connector. 
The 4x AGP slot only supports 1.5V 4x AGP card. 

Warning: 

Please be sure DO NOT install 3.3V AGP 4X 

VGA card on the mainboard, because it may cause the 
malfunction.
