Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change

any motherboard settings.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

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.

• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic

pad or in the bag that came with the component.

• Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the power supply

is switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure

to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals, and/or

components.
