12 Installing the Hardware and Software
Turn off the power to your system, and discharge your
body’s static electric charge by touching a grounded
surface — for example, the metal surface of the power
supply — before performing any hardware procedure.
The manufacturer assumes no liability for any damage,
caused directly or indirectly, by improper installation of
any components by unauthorized service personnel. If
you do not feel comfortable performing the installation,
consult a qualified computer technician.
Damage to system components, the accelerator card, and
injury to yourself may result if power is applied during
installation.

The AMC connector shares the same footprint with the VFC
but it adds pins for supporting additional multimedia modes.
Great caution should be taken when connecting a ribbon cable
to the AMC/VFC connector. Some of the pins carry power
and any improper use can result in damage both to the
graphics card and the upgrade board.
