Removing an Add-in Card
1 Remove the cover (see “Removing the Cover” on page 22).
2 Disconnect any cables attached to the add-in card you want to
remove.
3 Remove the screw that secures the add-in card to the chassis.
4 Remove the add-in card from the PCI slot connector and store the
card in an anti-static wrapper for future use.
! Before opening the system unit, save any open files, exit the Windows
®
operating system, turn off the power of the computer and all attached
peripherals, and then unplug the power cord.
Grasp the card with one hand on each end, and gently pull up as you rock the card
from side to side.
! Hold the add-in card by its edges and do not touch any components or
connector contacts on the card. Static electricity in your body may
damage sensitive components on the card. As a precaution, touch any
exposed metal part on the metal chassis (preferably the metal part on
the power supply) before handling an add-in card to discharge any static
electricity in your body.
