Installing the card

Read all these instructions through before attempting to install any
expansion card.
WARNING
Never carry out any work inside the computer with AC power
applied. Always shut down the computer and unplug all power cords
before removing the top cover.
The only tool required is a small cross-head screwdriver.
1. Turn off the computer and unplug all power cords.
2. Take suitable anti-static precautions and remove the system
unit cover. For more information see "Anti-static precautions"
in the Safety & Regulatory Notices at the start of this manual.
3. Decide in which of the available slots you wish to install the
card, according to its type and size. In general it is easiest,
where possible, to start with the lowest slot and work upwards.

(nearer the power supply) remove the plate with the security
loop – labelled (A) in the illustration below – then remove the
