up to indicate that the system is ON, in sleep mode or in soft-off mode, and not

powered OFF. Unplug the power cable from the power outlet and make sure that

the standby power LED is OFF before installing any system component.

• Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a metal

object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to

avoid damaging them due to static electricity.
