How to install our products right….the first time!
The first thing you should do is read this user’s manual. It contains important information that will make configuration and setup much easier. Here are some precautions you should take when installing your motherboard:
(1)Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the antistatic bag. Unplug the power from your computer power supply and then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). For the sa fest conditions, Tyan recommends wearing a static safety wrist strap.
(2)Hold the motherboard by its edges. Do not touch the bottom of the board or flex the board in any way.
(3)Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips, connectors, memory modules, and leads.
(4)Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the antistatic bag that the board was shipped in.
(5)Inspect the board for damage.
The following pages include details on how to install your motherboard into your chassis, as well as insta lling the processor, memory, disk drives and cables.
NOTE
WARNING:
DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED
The Thunder i7505 S2665 only supports EPS12V power supplies and will not operate with other types. DO NOT use ATX 2.x, ATX12V and dual AMDGES power supplies as they will damage the board and void your warranty.
Only EEB V3.0 form factor chassis is supported. Other form factors may short the board because the installation studs are in different locations.
