Step 5 Install the Motherboard
|
|
| The motherboard mounting hole pattern is the same as the mounting hole | ||
|
|
| pattern on the standard baby AT motherboard. Standoffs and mounting | ||
|
|
| screws are not supplied with the motherboard. The chassis manufacturer | ||
|
|
| should supply these parts. | ||
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step |
| Action |
| ||
1 |
| Place the chassis on an |
| ||
|
| static damage during installation. Connect an alligator clip with a wire lead to |
| ||
|
| any unpainted part of the chassis. Ground the other end of the lead at the same |
| ||
|
| point as the mat and the wristband. |
| ||
2 |
| Rotate the chassis so the front is to the right, and the rear is to the left. The side |
| ||
|
| facing you is where the motherboard is mounted. The power supply is mounted |
| ||
|
| at the far end of the chassis. |
| ||
3 |
| Hold the motherboard, |
| ||
|
| sockets toward you and the edge with the power supply connector away from |
| ||
|
| you. The keyboard, mouse, and video connectors should be to the left. |
| ||
4 |
| Carefully slide the motherboard into the chassis. Make certain the edge |
| ||
|
| connectors fit the ports in the rear of the chassis. The motherboard should rest |
| ||
|
| level with the chassis. |
| ||
5 |
| Place the mounting screws in the holes provided and tighten them. If necessary, |
| ||
|
| shift the motherboard slightly to align the mounting holes on the motherboard |
| ||
|
| with the holes on the chassis. See the drawing on the next screen. |

| Warning |
| |
|
|
| If using metallic screws, make sure you use them only in the |
| |
|
|
| plated mounting holes. |
| |
|
|
| If using metallic screws, make sure the head of the screw fits |
| |
|
|
| completely inside the plated mounting holes. |
