1.5 Before you proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components
or change any motherboard settings.
1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
2. Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or to a metal
object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to
avoid damaging them due to static electricity.
3. Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic
pad or in the bag that came with the component.
5. 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, and/or components.
When lit, the green LED (SB_PWR1) indicates that the system is ON, in sleep
mode, or in soft-off mode, a reminder that you should shut down the system and
unplug the power cable before removing or plugging in any motherboard
component.
The red LED (AGP_WARN1) is a smart protection from motherboard burn out
caused by an incorrect AGP card. If you plug in any 3.3V AGP card into the
1.5V AGP slot, this LED lights up thus preventing the system to power up. This
LED remains off if you plug in a 1.5V AGP card.
