Installing the Motherboard
1. Review the documentation that came with your motherboard. Become familiar
with component placement, requirements, precautions, and cable connec-
tions.
2. Power down the system and remove the power cords from the rear of the
power supply. Open the chassis cover as described in Section 5-3.
3. As required by your motherboard, install standoffs in any areas that do not
have a permanent standoff. To do this:
A. Place a hexagonal standoff screw through the bottom the chassis.
B. Secure the screw with the hexagon nut (rounded side up).
4. Lay the motherboard on the chassis aligning the permanent and optional
standoffs
5. Secure the motherboard to the chassis using the rounded, Phillips head
screws. Do not exceed eight pounds of torque when tightening down the
motherboard.
6. Secure the CPU(s), heatsinks, and other components to the motherboard as
described in the motherboard documentation.
7. Connect the cables between the motherboard, backplane, chassis, front pan-
el, and power supply, as needed. Also, the fans may be temporarily removed
to allow access to the backplane ports.
