Avoid Static Electricity

Static electricity can damage the motherboard and other computer
components. Keep the motherboard in the anti-static bag until it is to be
installed. Wear an anti-static wrist grounding strap before handling the
motherboard. Make sure you stand on an anti-static mat when handling the
motherboard.
Avoid contact with any component or connector on any adapter card, printed
circuit board, or memory module. Handle these components by the mounting
bracket.
