Installing Add-In Cards - HP Pavilion xl900 - Desktop PC Service Manual

Installing Add-In Cards

At some point, you may add an AGP or PCI card
to the computer to accommodate a new
component, such as a scanner, or to upgrade an
existing card.
You need a #2 Phillips screwdriver and a
medium flat-blade screwdriver. You also need
any software (for example, drivers) supplied with
the card.
Warning:
Do not overload the system
by installing add-in cards that draw
excessive current. The system is designed
to provide 2 amps (average) of +5 V
power for each board/card in the
computer. The total +5 V current draw in
a fully loaded system (one with all add-in
card slots filled) must not exceed the total
number of slots multiplied by 2 amps.
