Adding PCI Cards
1.
32-bit PCI slot
The P4SGE has six 32-bit, 33 MHz 5V PCI slots. A riser card designed
specifically for use in the 512 1U rackmount chassis is included with your
system. This riser card allows an installed PCI card to sit at a 90 degree
angle so it can fit inside the chassis. This riser card accommodates 32-
bit, 33 MHz 5V PCI cards (see Figure 5-6).

PCI card installation
The system should be powered down when adding or removing PCI cards.
Begin by removing the top cover of the chassis. You will see a metal
enclosure that houses the riser card. Remove this housing by lifting the two
plastic levers at either end and pulling the housing up and out of the chassis.
The riser card is attached to the inside top of the housing. Release the latch
that secures the PCI slot I/O shields to the housing by pulling it away from
the housing. Remove the shield and insert a PCI card into the slot on the
riser card, pushing down with your thumbs evenly on both sides of the card.
After the card has been added, push the latch back into position. Finish by
replacing the top chassis cover and powering up the system.
Note: The PCI slot I/O shields protect the serverboard and its components
from EMI and aid in proper ventilation, so make sure there is always a shield
covering each slot.
