Installing Add-In Cards - TYAN Tempest i5100T Manual

2.8 - Installing Add-In Cards

Before installing add-in cards, it's helpful to know if they are fully compatible
with your motherboard. For this reason, we've provided the diagrams below,
showing the slots that appear on your motherboard.
PCI-E x16 slot (w/ x16 bus)
Simply find the appropriate slot for your add-in card and insert the card
firmly. Do not force any add-in cards into any slots if they do not seat in
place. It is better to try another slot or return the faulty card rather than
damaging both the motherboard and the add-in card.
NOTE
YOU MUST ALWAYS unplug the power connector from
the motherboard before performing system hardware
changes. Otherwise you may damage the board and/or
expansion device.
