Before you proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install components into the
system.
•
Unplug the power cables before you touch any component in the system.
•
Use a grounded wrist strap, or touch a safely grounded object or a metal
object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to
avoid damaging them due to static electricity.
•
Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
•
Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic
pad or in the bag that came with the component.
•
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX power
supply is switched off or the power cable is detached from the power
supply. Failure to do so may lead to personal injury and cause severe
damage to the motherboard, peripherals, and components.
Onboard LED
The system motherboard comes with a standby power LED that lights up to
indicate that the system is ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode. This a reminder
that you should shut down the system and unplug the power cable before
removing or plugging in any motherboard component. The illustration below shows
the location of the onboard LED.
