11. Install the screw that secures the PCI-X bracket to the server.
If you have other devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to
“Completing the installation” on page 109.
Installing an adapter
The following notes describe the types of adapters that the server supports and
other information that you must consider when you install an adapter:
v To confirm that the server supports the adapter that you are installing, see
http://www.ibm.com/systems/info/x86servers/serverproven/compat/us/.
v Locate the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those
instructions in addition to the instructions in this section.
v Do not set the maximum digital video adapter resolution above 1600 x 1200 at
75 Hz for an LCD monitor. This is the highest resolution that is supported for any
add-on video adapter that you install in the server.
v Avoid touching the components and gold-edge connectors on the adapter.
v The server uses a rotational interrupt technique to configure PCI adapters so that
you can install PCI adapters that do not support sharing of PCI interrupts.
