Step 5 Install the Motherboard

The motherboard mounting hole pattern is the same as the mounting hole pattern on the AT motherboard.
Standoffs and mounting screws are not supplied with the motherboard. The chassis manufacture should
supply these parts.
Step
1
Place the chassis on an anti-static mat. Connect the chassis to ground to
avoid static damage during installation. Connect an alligator clip with a
wire lead to any unpainted part of the chassis. Ground the other end of the
lead at the same point as the mat and the wristband.
2
Rotate the chassis so that the front is to the right, and the rear is to the left.
The side facing you is where the motherboard is mounted. The power
supply is mounted at the far end of the chassis.
3
Push four nylon standoffs from the solder side of the motherboard in the
holes provided for them. The standoffs lock in place. Find the slots
provided for the standoffs on the chassis. Hold the motherboard,
component-side up, with the edge with the standoffs toward you and the
edge with the power supply connector away from you. The edge
connectors for the adapter cards should be to the left.
4
Carefully slide the motherboard into the chassis. Make certain that the
standoffs fit the slots provided for them. If the standoffs are properly
locked, the motherboard should not slide. It should also rest level with the
chassis. The far edge should fit the slots in the plastic clips.
5
Place the two mounting screws in the holes provided for them and tighten
them. If necessary, shift the motherboard slightly to align the mounting
holes on the motherboard with the holes on the chassis. Refer to the
graphic on page 32.

Warning
If using metallic screws, make sure that you use
them only in the plated mounting holes.
If using metallic screws, make sure that the head
of the screw fits completely inside the plated
mounting holes.
