devices such as printers and monitors.
2. Disconnect the power cord and any other cables from the back of the
computer.
3. Remove the system unit cover (see the user's guide for your chassis

ule may be damaged.
6. Fasten the module to the CPU card by using the included brass
screw. Screw the brass spacer into the threaded hole on the CPU
card. Do not tighten too much, or the threads may be damaged.
7. Attach any accessories to the PCM-3718 card using 20 pin cables.
8. Reinstall the CPU card and replace the system unit cover. Reconnect
the cables you removed in step 2. Plug in and turn on the power.
