Installing Expansion Cards
The system board is equipped with four PCI and three ISA
slots. All four PCI slots are bus masters. One PCI slot and
one ISA slot are shared. You can only install one card in one
or the other of the shared slots at a time; you cannot install
devices in both slots.
Due to the size of the CPU with its accompanying heatsink/
fan component, the length of the add-in cards in PCI slots 1,
2, and 3 is limited to 205mm (measured from the bracket of
the card).
The length of the add-in card in PCI slot 4 is limited to
205mm only if its components protrude more than 5mm from
the components and/or solder side of the card. The locations
of the expansion slots are shown on page 8.
Note:
The BIOS needs to be configured for the PCI add-on cards
installed in the PCI slots. Refer to the “PCI Configuration
Setup” chapter presented in the “Initial Setup Program”
section of the manual.
Software Driver Installation
To install the IDE and/or VGA driver and utilities supported by
the system board, please refer to the "Readme" files provided in
the provided diskettes.
