IMPORTANT: If using PCI cards on shared slots, make sure that the drivers sup-
port Share IRQ or that the cards do not need IRQ assignments. Conflicts will arise
between the two PCI groups that will make the system unstable or cards inoperable.

CAUTION! The AGP Pro slot is shipped with a warning label over the 20-pin bay.
DO NOT remove this label and the safety tab underneath it if you will be using an
AGP card without a retention notch. Removing may cause the
card to shift and may cause damage to your card, slot, and moth-
erboard. Remove ONLY when you will be using an AGP Pro
card. Use a rigid tip, such as a pen tip, to dislodge and remove
the tab from the bay.
