3. Unpack the option card. When you handle it, be careful not

to touch any of the components on the circuit board or the

gold-edged connectors. If you need to set it down before

you install it, place it gently on top of its original packing

material with the component side facing up. Keep the

packing materials in case you remove the card later.

Adjust any switches or jumpers on it, if necessary. (Check

the option card instructions.)

4. Grip the card firmly by the top corners and make sure the

connectors point down, as shown below.

5. Insert the card into the slot, guiding it straight down. Once

the connectors enter the slot, push the card downward

firmly (but carefully) to insert it fully. You should feel the

card fit into place.

If

the

card does not go in smoothly, do not force it; pull it

all the way out and try again, keeping it straight as you

insert it. Examine the card to verify that it is fully seated in

the slot along the length of the connector.
