(Slot 7 is commonly used for hard drive controller cards.) Its new position is between slots 4 and 5. Because 4 is the mouse port and 5 is the disk drive port, you’ll probably never want to put a card in either. A) First, lay the RamKeeper face up on the table. B) Notice the white pegs in two holes of the RamKeeper’s front con
