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 internal
component.
2. Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object, such as the
power supply case, before handling components to avoid damaging them
due to static electricity.
3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs on them.
4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place the components 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.
IMPORTANT: When lighted, the onboard LED indicates that the system is either
ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode. Make sure that the LED is turned OFF
before you install or remove any motherboard component.
