Removing and Replacing an Accessory Card

The HP Kayak XM600 has five 32-bit 33 MHz PCI accessory card slots and
one AGP slot on the system board. The AGP slot accepts standard 25W
AGP video cards.
AGP PRO video cards cannot be used in desktop models. Hardware
Protection on the system board ensures that the system is protected
against this.
1 Switch off the display and PC Workstation. Disconnect all power cables
and any LAN or telecommunications cables.
2 Remove the PC Workstation's cover (refer to page 22 for instructions).
3 If you are installing a new accessory card, unscrew and remove the slot
panel. Store it in a safe place. If the slot cover is tight, loosen the screws
on the adjacent slots.
If you are replacing an existing accessory card, remove any cables
connected to the accessory card. Remove the screw that holds the old
card in place and carefully pull it out.
Some cards may have preferred locations and special installation
instructions detailed in their manuals.
4 Aligning the new card carefully, slide it into position, then press it firmly
into the slot and tighten the retaining screw.
5 Install any other accessories before replacing the cover (refer to page
23). Reconnect all the power and telecommunications cables.
