Removing adapter cards
Follow these steps to remove an adapter card:
1. Position the system unit so that the card is accessible to you.
2. If the adapter card has cables, disconnect them. Be sure to take note of
where the cables are connected. You will have to reconnect these cables
when you reinstall the card.
3. Remove the adapter card screw.
4. Firmly hold the adapter card and carefully pull it from the card connector.
5. If you are not reinstalling the adapter card, reinstall all other hardware and
screws that you removed prior to the removal of the adapter card.
Note:
If you are permanently removing the factory-installed
modem or replacing the modem with a different type,
use the Windows Add/Remove Software feature in the
Control Panel to remove the modem software. You
must remove the modem software before removing the
modem or installing a different modem.
