GeForce 8100/8200/8300-ITX series Motherboard
Installing the Motherboard
The sequence of installing the motherboard into the chassis depends on the chassis
you are using and if you are replacing an existing motherboard or working with an
empty chassis. Determine if it would be easier to make all the connections prior to this
step or to secure the motherboard and then make all the connections. It is normally
easier to secure the motherboard first.
Use the following procedure to install the I/O shield and secure the motherboard into
the chassis.
Note: Be sure that the CPU fan assembly has enough clearance for the
chassis covers to lock into place and for the expansion cards. Also
make sure the CPU Fan assembly is aligned with the vents on the
covers.
Installing the I/O Shield
The motherboard kit comes with an I/O shield that is used to block radio frequency
transmissions, protects internal components from dust and foreign objects, and
promotes correct airflow within the chassis.
Before installing the motherboard, install the I/O shield from the
inside
of the chassis.
Press the I/O shield into place and make sure it fits securely. If the I/O shield does
not fit into the chassis, you would need to obtain the proper size from the chassis
supplier.
