3 SYSTEM EXPANSION
Your computer can accept various Expansion cards or boards. Most
are simple to install with the benefit of the ‘Plug and Play’ features,
explained in the guide to Windows 95. (Look out for the ‘Plug and
Play’ symbol on the packaging of these add-in boards). You can
extend the capabilities of the computer, for example,-
• A graphics/movie card can provide more specialised video
functions than those offered by the on-board EVGA system.
• A modem card can provide a connection to the Internet or a
bulletin board via a telephone line.
• A network card can provide a connection to an office or business
network fileserver and possibly mainframe.
• A television card can enable you to watch TV on your monitor
and capture individual frames.
This computer system has room for five expansion boards ;
one, full length Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) card.
two, half length ISA cards.
one, half length Peripheral Component Interface (PCI) card.
one, either full length ISA or full length PCI card.
These can be arranged into the internal Riser card generally as
shown in this rear view (the blanking plates have been removed for
simplicity of showing the layout).
