Installing YourCard
Now that you have prepared your computer, you are ready to install your
graphics accelerator card.
To install your graphics accelerator card.
1. Power off the computer and displays, then disconnect the display
cable from the back of your computer.
2. Remove the computer cover. If necessary, consult your computer’s
manual for help in removing the cover. Remember to discharge your
body’s static electricity by touching the metal surface of the
computer chassis.
3. Remove any existing graphics card from your computer. If the old
graphics card sticks, rock it gently from end to end. Remember to
save the screw. Or if your computer has any on-board graphics
capability, you may need to disable it on the motherboard. For more
information, see your computer’s manual.
4. If necessary, remove the metal cover from the empty AGP expansion
slot; then, align your card with the AGP expansion slot, and press
firmly until the card is fully seated. Grasp the card by the top edge
and carefully seal it firmly into the appropriate expansion slot. Do
not force the card – it should fit smoothly into the expansion slot.
5. Replace the screw to fasten the card in place, and replace the
computer cover.
6. Plug the display cable into your card, then turn on the computer and
display device. For cards with a Digital Flat Panel (DFP) connector,
connect your monitor or flat panel display (or both) to the
appropriate connector, as shown. Make sure your display cable is
securely fastened.
