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 all of the 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. When handling the
motherboard or an adapter card avoid touching its components. Handle the
motherboard and adapter cards either by the edges or by the adapter card
case mounting bracket.

There are critical headers used for connectors or power
sources. These are clearly marked separately from the
jumpers listed in Motherboard Layout. Incorrectly setting
jumpers and connectors may lead to damage to your
motherboard. Please pay special attention not to connect
these headers in wrong directions.
