Removing and Replacing the PCI/AGP Backplane
This section explains how to remove and replace the PCI/AGP backplane.
Removing the PCI/AGP Backplane
To remove the PCI/AGP backplane follow the steps in this section. Please note that the
backplane for the zx6000 includes on AGP card slot and three PCI card slots, and it is
called the PCI/AGP backplane. The rx2600 system’s backplane is called the PCI
backplane.
1. Remove any accessory cards by completing steps one through five in the section
“Removing an Accessory Card” found in this chapter. See page 49.
2. Unscrew the PCI/AGP backplane’s mounting screws and slide the backplane board
toward the bulkhead end of the PCI/AGP cage. This unlocks the PCI/AGP backplane
from its standoffs. Next, slightly lift the PCI/AGP backplane over the top of the
standoffs and slide it out of the PCI/AGP cage. Please be careful not to damage the
system’s intrusion switch. See Figure 2-26.
