2-3 Mounting the Motherboard into a Chassis
All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fi t different types of chassis.
Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both the motherboard
and the chassis match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal
mounting fasteners, metal ones are highly recommended because they ground
the motherboard to the chassis. Make sure that the metal standoffs click in or are
screwed in tightly.
1. Check the compatibility of the motherboard ports and the I/O shield
The H8SMi-2/H8SMA-2 motherboard requires a chassis that can support extended
ATX boards of 12" x 9.6" in size. Make sure that the I/O ports on the motherboard
align with their respective holes in the I/O shield at the rear of the chassis.
2. Mounting the motherboard onto the tray in the chassis
Carefully mount the motherboard onto the motherboard tray by aligning the mother-
board mounting holes with the raised metal standoffs in the tray. Insert screws into
all the mounting holes in the motherboard that line up with the standoffs. Then use a
screwdriver to secure the motherboard to the mainboard tray - tighten until just snug
(if 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.
2-4 Installing Memory
CAUTION
Exercise extreme care when installing or removing memory modules
to prevent any possible damage.
1. Insert each memory module vertically into its slot, paying attention to the notch
along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the module incorrectly (see
Figure 2-2). Install to slot 1A fi rst, then 2A, etc. See support information below.
2. Gently press down on the memory module until it snaps into place.
Note: 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB and 2 GB memory modules are supported. It is highly
recommended that you remove the power cord from the system before installing or
changing any memory modules.
