AGP Slot
AGP specification. It is AGP 3.0 compliant.
PCI Slots
This motherboard is equipped with three standard PCI slots. PCI stands for
Peripheral Component Interconnect and is a bus standard for expansion
cards, which for the most part, is a supplement of the older ISA bus standard.
The PCI slots on this board are PCI v2.3 compliant.
Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for the card
carefully. If the card is not Plug and Play, you may have to manually
configure the card before installation.
Follow these instructions to install an add-on card:
1 Remove a blanking plate from the system case corresponding to the slot you
are going to use.
2 Install the edge connector of the add-on card into the expansion slot. Ensure
that the edge connector is correctly seated in the slot.
3 Secure the metal bracket of the card to the system case with a screw.
For some add-on cards, for example graphics adapters and network adapt-
ers, you have to install drivers and software before you can begin using the
add-on card.
