Installing Expansion Cards
1. Remove the bracket plate on the slot you intend to use. Keep the
bracket for possible future use.
2. Insert the PCI card into the correct slot on the Mainboard, pushing
down with your thumbs evenly on both sides of the card.
3. Secure the card on the slot with the screw you removed above.
4. Assign IRQs for PCI expansion card: An IRQ number is automati-
cally assigned to PCI expansion card. In the PCI bus design, the BIOS
automatically assigns an IRQ to a PCI slot that contains a card re-
quiring an IRQ.
WARNING
Please completely power OFF your power supply when adding or
removing any expansion cards or other system components. Failure to
do so may cause severe damage to both your Mainboard and expansion
cards.
IMPORTANT
DJ800 provides a PCI-Express x16 slot for graphic use. It provides
the higher performance and greater bandwidth. DJ800 does not support
AGP slot, so please choose the graphic card with PCI-Express interface.
