Warning
Static electricity can damage integrated circuits. Before
handling any computer component outside its protective
packaging, use one of these methods to discharge static
electricity in your body:
• After you turn off the main switch on the back of the computer
and remove the chassis cover, touch a metal computer
component (such as the power supply).
or
• Wear a static wrist strap that is connected to a natural earth
ground.
Do not handle add-on cards by their "gold finger" connectors.
Fingers have oils and other contaminants that can prevent
connectors from making an electrical connection, which may
cause errors or other malfunctions. Handle all system
components by their mounting brackets or other edges.
