4. Replace the back panel and the three screws across the top edge.

the

and any other peripherals you have.

Turn the main unit so the front faces you and place the monitor back

on top of the main unit, if

that

is where you keep it.

the

power switch

on

the main unit is off. Then

reconnect

the

power cable to the AC input

the back panel and to

an electrical outlet.

Post-Installation Adjustments

After you install an option card, you may need to change some DIP

switch settings to match your new system configuration. See “Setting the

DIP

Switches”

in Chapter

1

to find out which DIP switches (if any) you

need to reset.

Then use the MS-DOS SETUP program to update your system’s

configuration information. For example, if you add a hard disk, you

need to tell the operating system that the additional drive is available.

See your MS-DOS (or other operating system) manual for instructions.

Also complete any additional instructions in the option card

manual.

Removing an Option Card

Before you remove an option card, turn off, unplug, and disconnect

your system components. Be sure to detach any cable connected to the

card. Then remove the main unit’s back panel and cover.

To take out the card, remove the screw on the metal retaining

bracket and pull the card straight up and out of the connector. Then

carefully wrap the card, preferably with the original packing materials,

and place it inside its box for safe storage.

Replace the metal plate and retaining screw at the back of the empty

option slot. Then replace the main unit’s cover. Snap the plastic access

slot cover onto the back panel and then attach the back panel to the

computer.

If necessary, reset the DIP switches on the main unit. Also, if you

used the MS-DOS SETUP program to change some operating system

settings for the option card, you need to change these settings back to

their original values.
