Installation Overview The installation of the card has slightly different procedures depending on whether you are replacing an existing card or installing a graphics card in a PC for the first time.
Record the Serial and Part Numbers Write down the serial number and part number before installing. The serial number and 102 part number on the graphics card are required for registration and free support. They are located on a sticker on the back of the card.
