Handling components
The electronic circuits in your computer and the circuits on Matrox Solios are
sensitive to static electricity and surges. Improper handling can seriously damage
the circuits. Be sure to drain static electricity from your body by touching a metal
fixture (or ground) before you touch any electronic component. In addition, do
not let your clothing come in contact with the circuit boards or components.
Warning Before you add or remove devices from your computer, always turn off the power
to your computer and all peripherals.
Installation
The installation procedure consists of the following steps:
1. Complete the hardware installation as described in Chapter 2: Hardware
