Adding PCI Add-On Cards

The 5037A-iL-MA015 can accommodate standard size add-on cards populated in
all slots.
Installing an Add-on Card
1. Begin by removing power from the system as described on page 3-1.
2. Removethe PCI slot shield for the slot you wish to populate.
3. Fully seat the card into the card slot, pushing down with your thumbs evenly
on both sides of the card.
4. Finish by using a screw to secure the top of the card shield to the chassis.
The PCI slot shields protect the motherboard and its components from EMI
and aid in proper ventilation, so make sure there is always a shield covering
each unused slot.
