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.
• 
Before handling components, use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded 
object or a metal object, such as the power supply case, 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 ATX 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, or components.
