Note:
 
 Do not leave an empty PCI slot uncovered. An 
uncovered port can affect the air flow to the computer’s 
components.
 
Replacement Note:
 
 If you are replacing an Xclaim VR PCI 
card that includes an additional memory module with a new 
Xclaim VR card, transfer the memory module from the 
original card to the new card before installing it in the 
computer. The memory module connector is keyed to ensure 
correct orientation with the card’s memory slot; do not 
force the module into the slot. Simply align the notch in the 
connector with the small plastic tab in the slot; then push in 
and down on the memory module until the two plastic latches 
on the side of the slot lock into place.
