you, starting with the right hand side. Take care not to disturb
the gasket (see photo below) between the motherboard and the
rear panel of the case.
Removing motherboard
If you have removed the motherboard in order to access the
motherboard tray for repair of fans or other procedures, move
on to that work now. Return to this section for replacement of
the motherboard.
Replace the motherboard in the reverse order of removal, with the
following exceptions:
1. If any of the nylon standoffs have been damaged by stripping or
breakage, replace them now. See the section Repair and
Replacement of Nylon Standoffs.
2. The motherboard should fit snugly against the gasket at the rear
panel of the case
without providing undue pressure to connectors
mounted on the motherboard.
