Expansion Card Removal
To remove an expansion card, perform the following steps:
1. Remove the computer cover.
2. If necessary, disconnect any cables connected to the card.
3. Remove the screw from the mounting bracket of the card you want to remove.
4. Grasp the card by its outside corners, and ease it out of its connector.
5. If you are removing the card permanently, install a metal filler bracket over the empty card-slot opening.
NOTE: Installing filler brackets over empty card-slot openings is necessary to maintain Federal Communications
