as described in “D20 Service Position” on page 125.
2. Open the service access cover as described in “Service Access Cover Removal”
on page 128.
3. Refer to the
PCI Adapter Placement Reference
, order number SA38-0538, for
information regarding slot restrictions for adapters that can be used in this system.
4. If necessary, remove the adapter expansion slot shield.
5. Before handling any card, board, or memory DIMM, be sure to use your
electrostatic discharge strap to minimize static-electric discharge. Refer to
“Handling Static-Sensitive Devices” on page 54.
