These instructions assume that a PCIe graphics card has already been successfully installed in the secondary slot (slot one), and that the primary slot (slot zero) is empty. Note: Consult your system builder or OEM to ensure that your system has an adequate power supply.
1. Make sure the computer, monitor, and other peripheral devices are off.
2. Unplug the computer power cord and disconnect the monitor cable from the back panel of the computer.
Caution:
To avoid possible damage to the motherboard, wait approximately 20 seconds after unplugging the power cord before disconnecting a peripheral or removing a component from the motherboard.
3. Remove the computer cover. If necessary, consult the computer manual for help removing the cover.
Caution:
Remember to discharge your body’s static electricity by touching the
power supply case or the metal surface of the computer chassis.
4. Locate the primary PCIe slot on the motherboard. If necessary, remove the corresponding back panel cover.
5. Align the new workstation card in the primary PCIe slot next to the existing graphics card and press firmly until the card is fully seated.
6. Fasten the workstation card securely to the back panel.
7. Connect external power to the workstation card from the systems power supply, if necessary. Consult your ATI FirePro workstation card's user guide, if necessary.
8. Connect the two ATI FirePro workstation cards using the ATI CrossFire Proflex connector.
