The procedures of Installing the Card Stabilizers
The card stabilizers are designed to hold down the add-on cards securely in their slots by
pressing the card edges with plastic clips. After you've installed all the add-on cards, reinstall
the stabilizers using the following steps.
Step 1. Loosen the screws that hold the plastic clips in their brackets. The clips should be able
to slide freely inside the brackets.
Step 2. Align the stabilizer bars with their
mounting holes on the chassis. Ins ert the
mounting screws and tighten them. You
may have to pull some of the clips up to
leave enough space between the clip and
the card edge.
