HARDWARE INSTALLATION
3.1. UNPACKING
The mainboard package should contain the following:
The 6SMM7 mainboard.
USER'S MANUAL for mainboard.
Cable set for IDE, COM B (Optional), Floppy devices, .
CD for Mainboard ¡ B ( Sound and AGP driver & other Utility).
The mainboard contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily
damaged by static electricity, so the mainboard should be left in its original
packing until it is installed.
Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat.
The operator should be wearing an anti static wristband, grounded at the
same point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the mainboard carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling
may cause damage to your board. Be sure there are no shipping and
handling damages on the board before proceeding.
After opening the mainboard carton, extract the system board and place it
only on a grounded anti-static surface component side up. Again inspect the
board for damage. Press down on all of the socket IC's to make sure that
they are properly seated. Do this only on with the board placed on a firm flat
surface.
M
DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED.
