Abstract
A support assembly for holding up an expansion card on a motherboard of an electronic device includes a pedestal having a pivotal carrier pivotably coupled to an upper part thereof and comprising a horizontal trough adjacent a top. In response to insertion of the expansion card into an expansion slot of the motherboard by means of a dummy adapter, an edge of the expansion card engages a slanted surface of the carrier to turn the carrier and capture the edge of the expansion card in the trough.
