Chapter 5
Advanced Motherboard Setup
This chapter covers the steps required to connect the K1SPE 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 fi nished
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. 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
suffi cient to protect your equipment from electrostatic discharge.
Precautions
•
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent Electrostatic Discharge.
•
Touch a grounded metal object before removing boards from their 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.
