Chapter 5
Advanced Motherboard Setup
This chapter covers the steps required to install the H8DCT-F/IBQF
motherboard into the chassis, connect the data and power cables and install add-on
cards. All motherboard jumpers and connections are also described. A layout and
quick reference chart are included in this chapter for your reference. Remember to
completely close the chassis when you have finished working with the motherboard
to better cool and protect the system.
5-1 Handling the Motherboard
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To prevent
damage to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very
carefully (see previous chapter). To prevent the motherboard from bending, keep
one hand under the center of the board to support it when handling. The following
measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from electric static
discharge.
Precautions
•
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
•
Touch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic bag.
•
Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,
memory modules or gold contacts.
•
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
•
Put the motherboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic
bags when not in use.
•
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the motherboard.
Unpacking
The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid electrical static
discharge. When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static
protected.
