ABSTRACT:
An auxiliary fixing mechanism is used for fixing an interface card to the housing of a computer. The auxiliary fixing mechanism includes an I/O window and an auxiliary fastener. The I/O window has a fixing slot and a first screw hole. The auxiliary fastener includes a first baffle, a second baffle, a third baffle, a fixing hook and a positioning hook. A screw is passed through the second screw hole of the auxiliary fastener in a direction that is vertical to the interface card. The bracket of the interface card is pushed and stopped by the baffles to restrict the movement of the interface card. Thereby, the auxiliary fixing mechanism can change the fixing direction for fixing the screw to prevent the prior art problem that the interface card could not be fixed to the housing via a screw due to space limitations.
