PC Server 300/320 - Full length adapter cards do not fit in slot

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom
On a limited number of Server 300 and 320 (8640) systems, difficulty or physical interference may be encountered while installing full length adapter cards into slots 1 and 2.

Problem Isolation Aids
None

Fix
This situation can be corrected by loosening the system board mounting screws and "rotating" the system board slightly to provide the alignment necessary for full length adapters to fit correctly in the lower slots. Slots 1 and 2 are affected the most. The higher numbered slots are affected the least.
