3. Installation

Precaution Before Start

Static Electricity Damage:

Static electricity can easily damage your motherboard. Observing a few

basic precautions can help safeguard against damage that could result

in expensive repairs. Follow the simple measures below to protect

your equipment from static electricity damage.

1. Keep the motherboard and other system components in their anti-static packaging until

you are ready to install them.

2. Touch a grounded surface before you remove any system component from its protective

anti-static packaging. Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded, anti-

static mat. The operator should be wearing an anti-static wristband, grounded at the

same points as the anti-static mat.

3. After removing the motherboard from its original packaging, only place it on a

grounded, anti-static surface component side up. Immediately inspect the board for

damage. Due to shifting during shipping, it is suggested that the installer press down

on the entire socket ICs to ensure they are properly seated. Do this only with the board

placed on a firm flat surface.

4. During configuration and installation touch a grounded surface frequently to discharge

any static electrical charge that may have built up in your body. The best precaution is

to wear a grounded wrist strap. Avoid touching the components When handling the

motherboard or an adapter card. Handle the motherboard and adapter cards either by

the edges or by the adapter card case-mounting bracket.

Misplaced Jumper Damage:

There are critical headers used for connectors or power sources. These

are clearly marked separately from the jumpers listed in Motherboard

Layout. Incorrect setting jumpers and connectors may lead to damage

to your motherboard. Please pay special attention not to connect these

headers in wrong directions
