The manufacturer assumes no liability for any damage,

caused directly or indirectly, by improper installation of

any components by unauthorized service personnel. If

you do not feel comfortable performing the installation,

consult with a qualified computer technician.

Steps:

1. Turn OFF all powers to your system, including any

peripherals (printer, external drives, modem, etc.).

2. Disconnect the power cord and the monitor cable from the

back of the computer.

3. Unfasten the cover mounting screws on your system and

remove the system cover. Refer to your system user manual

for instructions to determine the location of the mounting

screws.

4. Remove the retaining screw that holds the slot cover in

place. Slide the slot cover out and put the screw aside (you

will need it to secure the adapter).

5. To install the adapter in AGP expansion slot, carefully line up

the gold-fingered edge connector on the adapter directly

above the expansion slot connector on the motherboard.

Then press the adapter into place, completely. Use the

(remaining) screw you removed to secure the adapter-

retaining bracket in place.

6. Replace the computer cover. Secure the cover with the

mounting screws you removed in Step 3.

You have now completed the installation of your new graphics adapter

on your system.
