Make certain that you do not miss any pins because if you do,
you will void your warranty and cause damage to yourself or

connecting the power, make sure the connector is seated firmly
into its socket so it will not become loose or fall off when the
system is jostled or moved.
Connecting PS/2, USB, Serial, Parallel, LAN, VGA and Audio-MIDI Devices
After you have installed the motherboard, make the connections to the external
ports. The motherboard rear I/O panel provides external access to PS/2
style keyboard and mouse port, two USB ports, a parallel port, a RJ-45 port,
two serial ports, a game/MIDI port and three audio jacks, which are integrated
on the motherboard and PC99 compliant.
When plugging in your keyboard and mouse, or when plugging
anything into devices port, make sure the power is off. Connecting
these devices and ports while the power is on is called hot
plugging and may damage your system and devices.
Follow the instruction carefully to properly connecting I/O peripherals to your
system.
