Installation Manual
IMPORTANT: Some PCI I/O cards, such as the A6869B VGA/USB PCI card, cannot be added
or replaced online (while Windows® remains running). For these cards, you must shut down
Windows® on the nPartition before performing the card replacement or addition. See the section
on Shutting Down nPartitions and Powering off Hardware Components in the appropriate
service guide.
1. If the A6869B VGA/USB PCI card is currently not installed, follow proper procedures to
shut down the nPartition and power-off the appropriate PCI power domain.
2. Locate a vacant conventional clock speed PCI slot where the A6869B VGA/USB PCI card
will reside.
3. Position the PCI card over the empty slot, observing that edge connector keyways match
on the PCI backplane connector.
4. Using a slow firm pressure, seat the card down into the slot.
5. Connect the monitor, mouse, and keyboard cables to the card.
6. Connect power, and turn on the monitor.
7. Follow proper procedures to power-on the PCI power domain and boot the Windows®
nPartition.
Once Windows® has completely booted, the video, keyboard and mouse are ready for use.
