3. HARDWARE INSTALLATION
3.1. UNPACKING
The mainboard package should contain the following:
•
The 6EA main board.
•
The Retention Mechanism & Attach Mount
•
USER'S MANUAL for main board.
•
Cable set for IDE, Floppy & I/O devices.
•
CD for main board Utility. (Bus Master IDE Driver, Suspend to HD Utility,
LDCM, SIV, Patch 95)
The main board contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily
damaged by static electricity, so the main board should be left in its original
packing until it is installed.
Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat. The
operator should be wearing an anti static wristband, grounded at the same
point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the main board carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling
may cause damage to your board. Be sure there are no shipping and handling
damages on the board before proceeding.
After opening the main board carton, extract the system board and place it only
on a grounded anti-static surface component side up. Again inspect the board
for damage. Press down on all of the socket IC's to make sure that they are
properly seated. Do this only on with the board placed on a firm flat surface.
M
DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED.
