screw from the corresponding backplate (Figure 1-2).
Save the screw.
Some PCs have both ISA and PCI slots. Make sure that you install
the EtherLink III ISA NIC in either an ISA or an EISA slot. See
Figure 1-2.
PCI slots, the shortest of the three types of slots, are white. The
longer ISA slots are black. EISA slots, the longest, are brown.

the NIC match the slot that you intend to use (Figure 1-2).

the slot.
When the NIC is correctly inserted in the slot, the NIC backplate is
flush with the PC backplate.
