Installation
Install the PCI Express Card
PCI Express Cards can be severely damaged by static electricity. Make sure that you are properly grounded before you open your Computer Case or touch the 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.
