Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for the card
carefully. If the card is not Plug and Play, you may have to manually
configure the card before installation.

stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect and is a bus stan-
dard for expansion cards, which for the most part, is a supplement
of the older ISA bus standard. The PCI slot on this board is PCI v2.3
