5-2 Motherboard Installation
This section explains the first step of physically mounting the P4SCT+II into the
SC733T-350 chassis. Following the steps in the order given will eliminate the
most common problems encountered in such an installation. To remove the
motherboard, follow the procedure in reverse order.
1. Accessing the inside of the 5033C-T (see Figure 2-1)
Remove the two screws from the back lip of the side cover (this is the left
cover when looking at the chassis from the front.) Grab the handle and
gently pull the side cover out to release it from its position. Once the side
cover is out of its position, slide the cover out of the chassis.
2. Removing the rear exhaust fan:
Y
ou will need to remove the rear exhaust fan before installing the
motherboard. Refer to the appropriate section in Chapter 6 for details on
removing the rear exhaust fan.
3. Mounting the motherboard onto the motherboard tray:
Carefully mount the motherboard to the motherboard tray by aligning
the board holes with the raised metal standoffs that are visible on the
bottom of the chassis. Insert screws into all the mounting holes on your
motherboard that line up with the standoffs and tighten until snug (if you
screw them in too tight, you might strip the threads). Metal screws provide
an electrical contact to the motherboard ground to provide a continuous
ground for the system. Finish by replacing the fan (reversing the procedure
in step 2) and the side cover of the chassis.
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.
