Installing Add-In Cards - TYAN TOLEDO I3010W Manual

2.9 - Installing Add-In Cards

Before installing add-in cards, it's helpful to know if they are fully compatible with
your motherboard. For this reason, we've provided the diagrams below, showing
the slots that appear on your motherboard.
PCI-E x 16 (x 8 signal) Slot
64-bit 133/100/66MHz PCI-X Slot
64-bit 133/100/66MHz PCI-X Slot
PCI-E x 4 (x 4 signal) Slot
32-bit 3.3V PCI Slot
Simply find the appropriate slot for your add-in card and insert the card firmly.
Don not force any add-in cards (or anything else) into any slots if they won't seat
in place. It is better to try another slot or return the faulty card rather than
damaging both the motherboard and the add-in card.
TIP: it is good practice to install add-in cards in a staggered manner rather than
making them directly adjacent to each other. Doing so allows air to circulate
within the chassis more easily, thus improving cooling for all installed devices.
YOU MUST ALWAYS unplug the power connector from the
NOTE motherboard before performing system hardware changes.
Otherwise you may damage the board and/or expansion device.
