Note: Pay specific attention to the warnings in your option card
instructions. Some devices have delicate CMOS chips you
should not touch.
When you handle the card, be careful not to touch any of the contacts
on the circuit board, especially along the gold edge connections. If you
need to put it down before installing it, place it with the component side
facing down on top of the original packing. Keep the card’s original
packing materials in case you remove the card later.
