This User’s Guide

Note: Do not remove 

the mainboard from its original packing until

you are ready to install it.

The 

mainboard is easily damaged by static electricity.

Observe the following precautions while unpacking and
installing the mainboard.

1.

Touch an unpainted area of the system chassis before

handling the mainboard or any component. Doing so

discharges the static charge your body may have built.

2. Remove the mainboard from its anti-static wrapping

and place it on a grounded surface, component side up.

3. Inspect the mainboard for damage. Shipping may have

loosened integrated circuits from their sockets. If any

integrated circuit appears loose, press carefully to seat

it firmly in its socket.

Do not apply power if the mainboard appears damaged. If

there is damage to the board, or items are missing, contact your

dealer immediately.
