Next steps
Replace the expansion card.
Installing an expansion card
Prerequisites
CAUTION:
Expansion cards can only be installed in the slots on the expansion card riser. Do not attempt to
install expansion cards directly into the riser connector on the system board.
1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in Safety Instructions.
2. Unpack the expansion card and prepare it for installation. For instructions, see the documentation accompanying the card.
Steps
1. If installed, remove the filler bracket by performing the following steps:
a. Remove the screw that secures the filler bracket.
b. Hold the filler bracket by its edges, and remove it from the riser.
NOTE:
You must install an expansion card filler bracket over an empty expansion slot to maintain Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) certification of the system. The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of the
system and aid in proper cooling and airflow inside the system.
