Installing Accessory Boards

7 Secure the board by replacing the slot cover screw.

If you loosened the screws on adjacent slots, tighten them.

8 If you install a VESA-standard video adapter board which uses the

integrated video graphics controller, connect the accessory board’s
cable to the VESA pass-through connector on the system board. To
access the VESA pass-through connector, lift the power supply out
of its seating, and lay it upside down on the frame above the disk
drives. Remove the protection cover from the rear base of the PC.

NOTE

When the 1 MB video memory upgrade is installed on the integrated
video graphics controller, connecting a VESA-standard video adapter
board will disable this additional 1 MB of video memory and only the
first 1 MB of video memory will be used.

9 Install any other accessories before replacing the power supply and

the cover. Reconnect all cables and power cords.

10 If you used the VESA Pass-through connector, run the FCON.EXE

utility in HPUtils to enable the connection.
