How do I install a full height pci graphics card in this slim case pc.  It doesn't appear to fit into the side slots.  Is there a way to remove the upper metal piece?

Hi:

 

If the card is a low profile card with just the long mounting bracket used in a tower PC, you normally just need to unscrew the screws that are by the input ports, and there is usally a phillips-head screw on the edge of the card on the side of the bracket that has the 90 degree angle.

 

Then you can buy a set of low profile mounting brackets on eBay or Amazon if you don't have any.

I'll have to try a half-height card, but I fear that the bracket won't fit in the slot since there is a piece of riveted metal spanning the tops of the slots.

This is a picture of the back of your PC, correct?

 

Looks normal to me as far as installing the low profile mounting bracket...
