Installation
WARNING! Computer parts can be severely damaged by static
electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded before opening your
computer case. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static
strap when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap
is unavailable, discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by
touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer case)
for several seconds.
Installation of a power supply requires some mechanical skill and
requires that you open your computer case to disconnect and
reconnect wires. If you are unfamiliar with this kind of work, consider
bringing your computer and new StarTech.com power supply to your
local computer store for help.
Hardware Installation
1.
Turn your computer off and any peripherals connected to the
computer (i.e. printers, external hard drives, etc.).
2.
If the power supply has a power switch on it, set it to the "0" position.
Unplug the power cable from the rear of the power supply on the
back of the computer and disconnect all other peripheral cables.
3.
Remove the cover from the computer case. Refer to documentation
for your computer system for details.
4.
Disconnect all of the power connectors from the motherboard and
peripheral devices (i.e. hard drives, CD/DVD drives, etc). Make sure
to take note of each connector and where they were plugged in.
Ensure there are no devices connected to the existing power supply.
5.
Remove the existing power supply from the computer case. This is
typically done by removing four (4) mounting screws on the outside
face of the power supply. Refer to documentation for your computer
system/case for specifics.
