ABSTRACT:
A fixture assembly for securing a card in a computer includes a computer chassis with at least one slot opening and a window above the slot opening. A card is installed in the computer so that an external interface of the card matches up with a slot opening in the chassis, and an extension of a bracket attached to the card protrudes through the window. To secure the card in place, a clamp is attached over the window, where the clamp includes one or more outward folds to press against the extension of the bracket. The card's bracket may further extend through openings in the bottom of the chassis to improve the securing of the card.
