4-10 Installing Options
Expansion Boards
Your system supports 32-bit PCI Plug and Play expansion boards, an
AGP expansion board, a DVI-capable expansion board, and a CNR
expansion board.
With Plug and Play expansion boards, you can install a board without
changing the hardware settings. There are no system resource conflicts to
resolve. Plug and Play automatically configures the board for the system.
The PCI connectors support bus mastering and accept PCI expansion
boards that run at half the system board’s bus speed. The PCI bus handles
32 bits of data at a time, boosting system performance.
The following figure shows the locations of the expansion board
connectors on the system board.
The following sections include procedures for installing and removing the
