Installing and Removing an AGP Graphics Controller
To install the AGP graphics controller, remove the metal slot screw and
cover, insert the board into the AGP slot, and press the board firmly
into place. Replace the metal slot screw. See Installing an Expansion
Board in this chapter for more information.
To ensure the board fits properly, use an AGP graphics controller with
an ATX format bracket.
When installing an AGP board, press firmly on the board so that the
whole connector seats properly in the AGP slot. If you are installing a
full-length expansion board, be sure to engage the card guide.
To remove the AGP graphics controller, remove the metal slot screw,
hold the board at each end, and then pull up. Be sure to replace the
metal slot screw and cover. See Removing an Expansion Board in
this chapter for more information.
