ABSTRACT:
The apparatus includes a movable card guide mechanism for receiving a PC add-on board. The movable card guide mechanism moves vertically to seat the add-on board in, or remove the add-on board from, a bus connector when an external latch is moved inward or outward. The external latch is attached to the movable card guide mechanism by means of an actuator, and the movable card guide mechanism is mounted to the inside top wall of the PC's chassis. Thus, when the actuator moves in one direction, the movable card guide mechanism is moved down, seating the edge connector of an add-on board in a bus connector on the PC's motherboard, and when it moves in the other direction, the movable card guide mechanism is moved up, removing the add-on board from the bus connector.
