Removing the card

1

Open the computer.

IMPORTANT

For detailed instructions on opening your Power Macintosh 7300

computer, including important precautions, see Appendix B. To learn how to
open your Power Macintosh 4400 computer, see the

PC Compatibility Card

Update that came with your computer.

2

Remove any cables from the PC Compatibility Card ports.

If you have not already done so, remove the loopback cable, and the PC game
controller cable (if one is attached), from the ports on the back of the PC
Compatibility Card.

3

If necessary, disconnect the audio cables from the PC Compatibility Card.

Because the audio cables can be difficult to remove, it’s best to leave them
connected if possible. If you feel you can pull the card out and access the
DIMM slot without disconnecting the audio cables, leave the cables in place.

WARNING

Your PC Compatibility Card contains one socket for

additional video RAM. To avoid damage to your computer, Apple
recommends that you have your Apple-authorized dealer install
additional video RAM (for a fee). If you attempt to install additional
video RAM yourself, any damage you may cause to your equipment will
not be covered by the limited warranty on your computer. See an
Apple-authorized dealer or service provider for additional information
about this or any other warranty question.
