Removing cards from motherboard?

[Boomyal]

I'm rearanging some card on my computer to make room for others. Got to swap out some PCI's for ISA'a to get another PCI card in.

Should I disable the card function in Device Manager before I shut down and pull the card(s)?

Nope, no need to, just swap them.

Yeah, your not "uninstalling" them so just shut down and make sure your grounded.

I did disable (not uninstall) the PCI network card before I removed it. My internet connection was down so I could not check responses to my question before it was time to pull the card.
