Motherboard installation

Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis
to ensure that the motherboard fits into it. The P4B-MX uses the micro-
ATX form factor that measures 9.6 inches x 9.6 inches, a standard fit for
most chassis.

Do not overtighten the screws! Doing so may damage the
motherboard.

When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the

rear part of the chassis. Refer to the image below.

2.1.2 Screw holes

Place eight (8) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the
motherboard to the chassis.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the
motherboard. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and
damage motherboard components.
