Installing Add-on Cards
The slots on this motherboard are designed to hold expansion cards and connect
them to the system bus. Expansion slots are a means of adding or enhancing the
motherboard’s features and capabilities. With these efficient facilities, you can in-
crease the motherboard’s capabilities by adding hardware that performs tasks that are
not part of the basic system.
Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for the
card carefully. If the card is not Plug and Play, you may have to
manually configure the card before installation.
This motherboard is equipped with one standard PCI slot. PCI stands
for Peripheral Component Interconnect and is a bus standard for ex-
pansion cards, which for the most part, is a supplement of the older
ISA bus standard. The PCI slot on this board is PCI v2.3 compliant.
