I have a compaq pressario sr5310f desktop pc|||Turn computer off and unplug the power cable.

Open up the side panel.

Remove the screw thats holding the metal thats holding/blocking the rears of PCI slots (outside of computer on the rear), remove the metal.

Put card in.

Put the metal back in.

Put the screw back in.

Connect whatever extra power the cards will need (if any).

Close side panel.

Reconnect power cable.

Start computer.

Download and instal drivers.



To be honest your computer is old, really old, upgrading the graphics card won't do anything (especially if you plan to put in a fossil like 8600gt or x1950 in). It just won't run mw3....
