    6ZX7 HARDWARE INSTALLATION 3.1. UNPACKING The main board package should contain the following: The 6ZX7main board. USER’ S MANUAL for main board. Cable set for IDE, Floppy devices. A CD for mainboard Utility. The main board contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily damaged by static electricity, so the main board should be left in its original packing until it is installed.
