Congratulations on making it this far! You're finished setting up the hardware
aspect of your computer. Before closing up your chassis, make sure that all

motherboard jumpers are not set correctly.
In the rare circumstance that you have experienced difficulty, you can find help by
asking your vendor for assistance. If they are not available for assistance, please
