 Power Supply

Be careful!  Always ensure that the computer is disconnected from the power supply when

working on the motherboard and its components.

Static electricity may cause damage to the delicate integrated circuit chips on your

motherboard.  Before handling the motherboard outside of its protective packaging, ensure

that there is no static electrical charge in your body.  A static discharge sufficiently strong

enough to damage computer components is not perceptible by a human.  To avoid this risk,

please observe these simple precautions while handling the motherboard and other computer

components:

1. If possible, wear an anti-static wrist strap connected to a natural earth ground.

2. Touch a grounded or anti-static surface, or a metal fixture such as a pipe or the chassis of

your system, before touching the motherboard.

3.

When you have removed the motherboard from its anti-static packaging, try to hold it only

by the edges, without touching any components.

4.

Avoid contacting the components on add-on cards, motherboards, and modules with the

gold-colored connectors which plug into the expansion slots.

5.

It is safest to handle system components only by their mounting brackets.

6.

Keep components which are not connected to the system in the anti-static packaging

whenever possible.

These precautions help to reduce the risk of static build-up and ensure any static discharge is

harmless to your equipment.

The battery which holds the system settings memory (CMOS RAM) on your motherboard

should not require replacement for at least five years, and probably much longer.  In picture

2.2, it is located near the bottom right hand corner.  Incorrect computer time and/or loss of time

may indicate a weak motherboard batttery.
