I just noticed that the picture on the box of the motherboards AGP
slot shows a lever. My board does not look like the picture on the
box as miy slot has no lever. I am in touch with the seller
"Zipzoomfly" about this. Am awaiting a reply. Possibly a
maufacturers error.

They were extremely close to getting away with it.

Update. Manufacturer concurs in that "if the board does not have a
white lever, send it back.

It is a white latch that locks the AGP port...it prevents the
introduction of a AGP Pro video card into the slot...

It's a clip that holds the AGP card in place, probably so a fan wont
vibrate it out of the slot. The AGP Pro is almost nonexistent.



The rest is HTML spam.
