3: Removing and Installing Baseboard Components

Warning: If the system has been running, any installed PCI add-in board on the

baseboard will be hot. To avoid the possibility of a burn, be careful when removing or

installing baseboard components, especially those that are located near processors.

Caution: Slot covers must be installed on all vacant expansion slots. This maintains the

electromagnetic emissions characteristics of the system and ensures proper cooling of

system components.

Note: At this time, the Linux operating system does not support use of the PCI hot-plug

(PHP) feature. If you are running Linux, your system must be turned off before installing

or removing PCI boards. Windows 2000 requires drivers that are PHP-compatible in

order to use the PHP feature.
