your computer has. PCI bus slots are typically white or ivory

and are shorter than ISA or EISA slots. Usually, there are three

PCI slots. One of these may be a shared slot. A shared slot has

connectors for both ISA and PCI, but can accept only one kind

of board at a time.

Remove the corresponding expansion slot cover from the com-

puter chassis. The slot cover is the metal strip in the back of the

computer chassis that covers the opening for the adapter’s

external connector.

Position the host adapter directly over the PCI slot and insert

the end of the board in the card guide. Carefully press the bus

connector on the bottom of the host adapter down into the slot,

as shown in Figure 2-4. Be sure the metal contacts on the

bottom of the host adapter are securely seated in the slot.

Attach the host adapter bracket to the computer chassis with

the screw from the slot cover that you removed in step 4.

Note:

Do not replace the computer cover or reconnect the

power yet!
