Static-Sensitive Devices
Electric Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To
prevent damage to your system board, it is important to handle it very
carefully. The following measures are generally sufficient to protect your
equipment from ESD.
Precautions
•
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
•
Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the anti-
static bag.
•
Handle the board by its edges only; do not touch its components, periph-
eral chips, memory modules or gold contacts.
•
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
•
Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when
not in use.
•
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides ex-
cellent conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting
fasteners and the motherboard.
Unpacking
The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage.
When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static protected.
Installation Procedures
Follow the procedures below for the installation of the motherboard and the
system:
1. Installing the processor and the heat sink.
2. Installing the motherboard in the chassis.
3. Installing the memory and add-on cards.
