Installing the Motherboard in a System Housing
This section explains the basic requirements for install-
ing this motherboard in a system housing or “chassis”.
Since housing designs vary widely, you will need to con-
sult the housing documentation for specific information.
This motherboard can be installed in any housing that
supports the Micro ATX or ATX form factor.
To install the motherboard in a system housing you will
need to do the following:
• Install the rear I/O panel shield that comes with the
motherboard
• Attach the board to the housing
• Connect leads from the housing’s front panel
You can then connect other internal system components
as described later in this chapter.
Motherboard Installation Procedure
This section assumes you are installing the board in a
suitable housing. We also assume you have prepared the
board for installation as previously described in this
manual. If the housing you are using normally stands
vertically, place the open housing on it’s side before you
start installing the board.
Please follow this procedure to install this motherboard:
1. Review any instructions that came with the system
housing and prepare the necessary mounting hard-
ware that came with it.
2. Identify the mounting holes on the board and con-
firm that the housing has standoffs that match them.
3. Install the rear I/O panel shield that came with the
motherboard in the housing’s I/O panel opening.
This should match the ports on the board.
Required Tool:
• Philips-head screw driver
(Crosshead)
