and forth until the connectors pull free from the socket. Lift the AGP card
straight up, then pull it in toward the center of the chassis to maneuver it around
the chassis frame. Be sure not to scrape the card against other components.
Removing the AGP Card
To replace the AGP card, reverse the above procedure.
8. If you are not replacing the old expansion card with a new expansion card, install
an expansion slot cover to close the open slot. Insert the metal slot cover in the
open slot and slide the slot cover retention latch down to secure the slot cover in
place.
CAUTION: After removing an expansion card, you must replace it with a new card or
cover the open slot (for example, with a metal slot cover or a piece of duct tape) for proper
cooling of internal components during operation.)
