2.5 Expansion slots

In the future, you may need to install expansion cards. The motherboard

has available PCI slots, an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) slot and a

Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) slot. The following sub-sections describe the slots

and the expansion cards that they support.

2.5.1 Installing an expansion card

Follow these steps to install an expansion card.

1. Read the documentation that came with the expansion card and make

the necessary hardware settings for the card.

2. Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already installed

in a chassis).

3. Remove the bracket opposite the slot that you intend to use. Keep the

screw for later use.

4. Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is

completely seated on the slot.

5. Secure the card to the chassis with screws.

6. Replace the system cover.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before adding or removing

expansion cards. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and

damage motherboard components.

2.5.2 Configuring an expansion card

After installing the expansion card, configure the card by adjusting the

software settings.

1. Turn on the system and change the necessary BIOS settings, if any.

See Chapter 4 for information on BIOS setup.

2. Assign an IRQ to the card. Refer to the tables on the next page.

3. Install the software drivers for the expansion card.
