Removing a PCI Express Card
1 Follow the procedures in "Before You Begin" on page 61.
2 If necessary, disconnect any cables connected to the card.
3 Gently pull back the securing tab, grasp the card by its top corners, and then ease it out of its connector.
4 If you are removing the card permanently, install a filler bracket in the empty card-slot opening.
NOTE:
Installing filler brackets over empty card-slot openings is necessary to maintain FCC certification of the
computer. The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of your computer.

computer and devices to electrical outlets, and then turn them on.
