Accelerated Graphics Port (Agp) Controller - HP Compaq SP700 User Manual

Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) Controller

The workstation ships standard with a graphics controller installed in the Accelerated Graphics
Port (AGP) graphics controller slot.
To remove the AGP graphics controller, complete the following steps:
1. Perform the service preparations shown on page 3-2, remove the workstation feet, and
place the workstation on its side.
2. Remove the side access panel.
3. Remove the screw that secures the controller, then hold the graphics controller at both
ends and pull up.
Figure 3-12.
To replace the AGP graphics controller, reverse the above procedure.
NOTE: To ensure that the controller fits properly, be sure to use AGP graphics controllers with
ATX format brackets. Press the graphics controller firmly into place so that the whole connector
seats properly in the AGP slot. If you are installing a full length expansion board, be sure to
engage the card guide.
CAUTION: If you permanently remove an expansion board, install a protective slot
cover to ensure proper cooling.
