Ê
Move the locking slide on the card guide in the direction of the fan cage (1).
V
CAUTION!
The locking slide may only be moved if both indicators for the relevant
PCI slot are not lighting.
The locking slide activates the MRL sensor, which informs the
operating system that the PCI slot has been deactivated.
If the MRL sensor is activated without authorization (one of the LEDs
is still lighting) and there is a board in the PCI slot, an NMI is initiated
(Blue Screen). This state cannot be exited. There is a risk that data
may be lost.
Ê
Open the hot-plug PCI board holder (d) and remove it (2).
Ê
Remove all cables attached to the board.
Ê
Using the pull out aid, pull the board out of the PCI slot (3) and remove it
carefully.
