Installing System Components 89
NOTE: The procedure for installing expansion cards into the left and central risers
is the same except that there is no card guide for cards installing into the central
riser, and only half-height cards are supported on the central riser. Full-length
expansion card installation is illustrated in Figure 3-14.
1
Unpack the expansion card and prepare it for installation.
For instructions, see the documentation accompanying the card.
2
Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect
the system from the electrical outlet.
3
Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 67.
4
Open the expansion-card guide latch and remove the filler bracket. See
Figure 3-14.
5
Install the expansion card:
a
If the expansion card is full length, align its front edge with the front
card guide. See Figure 3-14.
b
Position the expansion card so that the card-edge connector aligns
with the expansion-card connector on the expansion-card riser board.
c
Insert the card-edge connector firmly into the PCI card connector
until the card is fully seated.
d
When the card is seated in the connector, close the expansion-card
latch. See Figure 3-14.
