Installing the Motherboard

This manual does not cover CPU, RAM, or expansion card installation.

Please consult your motherboard manual for specific mounting instructions and troubleshooting.

1.Lay the case down, with the open side facing up. The drive cages and power supply should be visible.

2.Make sure you have the correct I/O panel for your motherboard. If the panel provided with the case isn’t suitable, please contact your motherboard manufacturer for the correct I/O panel.

3.Line up your motherboard with the standoff holes and remember which holes are lined up. Not all motherboards will match with all the provided holes; this is normal and won’t affect its functionality.

4.Remove your motherboard by lifting it up.

5.Install standoffs as needed and put the motherboard back in.

6.Screw in your motherboard to the standoffs with the provided Philips-head screws. Your motherboard is now installed.

2.Connect the Reset switch (labeled RESET SW) to your motherboard at the RST connector.

3.Power Switch (labeled POWER SW) connects to the PWR connector on the motherboard.

4.Power LED (labeled POWER LED) connector is located behind the Reset connector. On all LED’s, the colored wire is positive (+).

5.Hard Drive LED I, LED II (labeled HDD I, HDD II) connectors: This case comes with two HDD LEDs. You may use these LEDs for two hard drives.

Connecting the USB Ports

You will find a single 10-pin connector on a cable attached to the front USB ports. This is an Intel® standard connector that is keyed so that it can’t be accidentally reversed when connected to a proper Intel® standard motherboard header. Connect the 10-pin connector to the motherboard headers so that the blocked pin fits over the missing header pin.

Note: Please check the motherboard manual for the USB header pin layout and make sure it matches the table below. If it does not match this Intel® standard, please visit Antec’s web store at http://www.antec.com/StoreFront.bok and search for part number 30095 to order a USB Internal Adapter Cable. This adapter
