Setting up Expansion Slots

Once you have set up the computer, set up the expansion slots as follows:
1. Select a 32-bit or 64-bit PCI expansion slot.
PCI slots are shorter than ISA or EISA slots and are usually white or ivory. Commonly,
three PCI slots (one of which may be a shared ISA/PCI slot) are available. If an ISA board
exists in the shared slot, you cannot use the slot for a PCI board; if a PCI board exists in
the shared slot, you cannot use the slot for an ISA board.
2. Remove the cover plates from the selected expansion slots. Retain the screws that held
them in place; you will use them later to install the board.
