Disconnect any internal cables that may be in the way. As you
do, make a note of their correct locations and orientations for
later reattachment. Unscrew the retaining screw for the slot
guard, and set it aside. Mount the expansion board into the
slot by gently sliding the board into the slot. If the board is
long enough to reach the card guide mounted on the front
panel support flange, slide the board down the center groove of
the guide.
Making sure the board is correctly aligned, carefully insert the
board’s edge contacts into the slot connector on the main
system unit’s motherboard. A gentle rocking motion is helpful
in getting the board started in the edge connector.
Once started, press the board into the motherboard connector
until it is seated completely. The tab at the bottom of the
mounting bracket should fit into the slot at the bottom rear of
the main system unit, and the bracket’s top flange should rest
directly on top of the rear panel support.
