EXPANSION/RISER CARD REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT
Installing a plug-in expansion card requires an appropriate riser card. Contact a Crystal
Sales Representative or Technical Support if the system does not include a riser card.
Removing and Replacing the Plug-in Expansion/Riser Card
Disconnect power source to prevent injury.
Installing a plug-in expansion/riser card requires opening the RS112 cover; removing the
card cage; inserting the card into the motherboard; replacing the card cage; and
disconnecting and reconnecting the appropriate connectors.
Do not force the card. Forcing the card may result in equipment damage. If it does not
slide into place, check the alignment and try again.
