Installing the Motherboard
Installing Add-on Cards
The slots on this motherboard are designed to hold expansion cards and connect them to the
system bus. Expansion slots are a means of adding or enhancing the motherboard’s features
and capabilities. With these efficient facilities, you can increase the motherboard’s capabili-
ties by adding hardware that performs tasks that are not part of the basic system.
PCI1~2 Slots
This motherboard is equipped with two standard PCI slots. PCI stands for
Peripheral Component Interconnect and is a bus standard for expansion
cards, which for the most part, is a supplement of the older ISA bus
standard. The PCI slots on this board are PCI v2.3 compliant.
PCIEX16 Slot The PCI Express X16 slot is used to install an external PCI Express
graphics card that is fully compliant to the PCI Express Base Specifica-
tion revision 1.0a.
Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for the card
carefully. If the card is not Plug and Play, you may have to manually
configure the card before installation.
The PCI Express x1 slot is fully compliant to the PCI Express Base
Specification revision 1.0a.
