Unpacking
The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid electrical static dis-
charge. When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static
protected.
5-2 Motherboard Installation
This section explains the fi rst step of physically mounting the X7SLM-L into the
SC731I-300B chassis. Following the steps in the order given will eliminate the most
common problems encountered in such an installation. To remove the motherboard,
follow the procedure in reverse order.
Installing to the Chassis
Access the inside of the system (see procedure in Chapter 6). 1.
Make sure that the I/O ports on the motherboard align properly with their 2.
respective holes in the I/O shield at the back of the chassis.
Carefully mount the motherboard to the motherboard tray by aligning the 3.
board holes with the raised metal standoffs that are visible in the chassis. You
may need to add an extra standoff for the hole near the Fan 3 header.
Insert screws into all the mounting holes on your motherboard that line up 4.
with the standoffs and tighten until snug (if you screw them in 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.
Finish by replacing the top cover of the chassis. 5.
5-3 Connecting Cables
Now that the motherboard is installed, the next step is to connect the cables to the
board. These include the data (ribbon) cables for the peripherals and control panel
and the power cables.
Connecting Data Cables
The cables used to transfer data from the peripheral devices have been carefully
routed to prevent them from blocking the fl ow of cooling air that moves through
the system from front to back. If you need to disconnect any of these cables, you
