78 Installing System Components
Removing an Expansion Card
CAUTION: Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system cover and access any of the
components inside the system. See your Product Information Guide for complete information about safety
precautions, working inside the computer, and protecting against electrostatic discharge.
1 Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical
outlet.
2 Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 54.
3 Disconnect all expansion-card cables.
4 Release the expansion card:
a Open the expansion-card latch. See Figure 3-18.
b Grasp the expansion card by its top corners, and carefully remove it from the expansion-card
connector.
5 If you are removing the card permanently, install a metal filler bracket over the empty expansion slot
opening and close the expansion-card latch.
NOTE: You must install a filler bracket over an empty expansion slot to maintain Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) certification of the system. The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of the system and aid in
proper cooling and airflow inside the system.
6 Reconnect all expansion-card cables.
7 Close the system. See "Closing the System" on page 55.
