WARNING!
PCI Express cards can be severely damaged by static electricity. Make
sure that you’re properly grounded before you open your computer
case or touch your PCI Express card. You should wear an anti-static
strap when you install any computer component. If an anti-static
strap isn’t available, discharge any built-up static electricity by
touching a large grounded metal surface for several seconds. Only
handle the PCI Express card by its edges and don’t touch the gold
connectors.
1. Turn o your computer and any devices or peripherals that are
connected to it (for example, printers, external hard drives, and so
on).
2. Unplug the power cable from the back of your computer.
3. Disconnect any peripheral devices that are connected to your
computer.
4. Remove the cover from your computer case. Consult the
documentation that came with your computer for details about
how to do this safely.
