The Preinstall
First you want to remove the computers cover. When you remove it you will need to remove the covers where the cards will go.
Installing the Add-on Card
once the plate is removed carefully insert the card into the correct position and screw in tightly. If it does not fit pull out and try again, don't force, it can dammage the computer and/or card.
Putting It Back Together
now all you have to do is put the cover back on and insert the cords, inster all of them before turning on. mostly everything should be color coated to make it easy. When this is done turn it back on and if the add-on card came with a CD insert it and install any nessary programs. All should be on the disk.
