Important Precautions
Many of the computer system’s internal components are extremely sensitive to static
electricity. The following techniques reduce the possibility of damaging components with
electrostatic discharge or static.
§
Before handling any components or touching anything inside the system unit,
discharge your body’s static electric charge by touching a grounded surface. Wear a
grounding wrist strap if one is available.
§
Do not take hard drives, memory chips, or the like from their antistatic containers or
bags until you are ready to install them. When removing cards or chips from a system,
immediately place them in an antistatic bag.
§
When handling cards, hold them by their edges, and avoid touching the circuitry.
§
Do not slide cards or ICs over any surface.
§
Limit your movements during installation reduces static electricity.
Warning:
Always disconnect the computer system from AC power before opening
the system unit cover.
