!

Before opening the system unit, save and close all open files, exit all open

applications, turn off the power to all attached peripheral devices, shut
down the computer, and unplug the power cord.

Align the card's bracket so that the bottom of the bracket fits into the slot at the
bottom of the chassis. Make sure that the top of the bracket fits snugly against the
chassis lip after the card is fully inserted.
