Expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips.To protect

them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions

whenever you work on your computer.

1. Turn off your computer and unplug power supply.

2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have one,

touchboth ofyour hands toa safelygrounded objector toametal object,such as thepower

3. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the

components whenever the components are separated from the system.

The card contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily damaged by static

electricity, so the card should be left in its original packing until it is installed.
