EVGA H55V Computer Hardware User Manual


 
Use the following procedure to install the I/O shield and secure the motherboard into the
chassis.
Installing the I/O Shield
The motherboard kit comes with an I/O shield that is used to block radio frequency
transmissions, protects internal components from dust and foreign objects, and promotes
correct airflow within the chassis.
Before installing the motherboard, install the I/O shield from the
inside
of the chassis. Press the
I/O shield into place and make sure it fits securely.
Securing the Motherboard into a System Case
Most system cases have a base with mounting studs or spacers to allow the motherboard to be
secured to the chassis and help to prevent short circuits. If there are studs that do not align
with a mounting hole on the motherboard, it is recommended that you remove that stud to
prevent the possibility of a short circuit.
1. Carefully place the motherboard onto the stand offs located inside the chassis.
2. Align the mounting holes with the stand offs.
3. Align the connectors to the I/O shield.
4. Ensure that the fan assembly is aligned with the chassis vents according to the fan
assembly instruction.
5. Secure the motherboard with screws.
