Install the
Baseboard
A metal baseboard is required to add
stability to the motherboard. A rub-
ber pad is placed between the metal
board and motherboard to provide
insulation to prevent shorting. Align
the rubber pad over the metal base-
board so that the holes match. Align
the XG-DLS motherboard over the
rubber pad and metal baseboard so
that the screws match up with the
motherboard’s screw holes.
Motherboard
Screws
Place nine screws in the areas
circled on the motherboard. The
four screws used with the
motherboard spacers are longer
than the others. (See page 22 for
samples.) Be careful not to over-
tighten the screws. Doing so may
damage your motherboard.
