Installing an Add-On or Expansion Card
1. To install add-on or expansion cards, perform the following steps:
2. Remove the chassis cover.
3. Locate the motherboard port aligned with the card slot you want to install,
4. Each slot is secured by one screw located on the top (inside) the chassis. Remove this screw.
5. Gently slide the expansion/add-on card into the correct motherboard slot. If the add-on card
requires a riser card, install it at this time. If necessary, slide the card into the PCI card guide
and lock it. Never force a component into a motherboard or the chassis.
6. Secure the expansion/add-on card with the screw from the I/O panel.
7. If the expansion/add-on card is a boot device, then the Option ROM for that PCI slot will
need to be enabled. Refer to section “Slot 1 Option ROM – Slot 7 Option ROM” on page 62.
