Icons
In order to help you navigate this manual and set up your system, we
have added several icons to our format.
This icon alerts you to particularly important details regard-
ing the setup or maintenance of your system. This icon
often appears next to information that may keep you from
damaging your board or system. While we will often point
out the most vital paragraphs in a chapter, you should always read
every word in the text. Failing to do so can lead to exasperation and
expense.
Wherever possible, we have included step-by-step instruc-
tions for setting up your system, which are indicated by
this icon. However, it is in your best interest to read an
entire section (and perhaps the entire manual) before you begin to
fiddle with your motherboard.
While we have alerted you to potential dangers in several
places in the manual with this icon, these warnings should
not be regarded as the whole of your safety regimen.
Never forget that computers are electrical devices, and are capable of
delivering a shock. Prevent damage to yourself and to your board:
always ensure that your system is turned off and unplugged whenever
you are working with it, and that you are equipped with a static safety
device.
