motherboard. Failure to do so may cause physical injuries to you and
damages to motherboard components.
Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the
2.1 Screw Holes
Place screws into the holes to secure the motherboard to the chassis.
Do not over-tighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.
2.2 Pre-installation Precautions
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components
or change any motherboard settings.
1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.
2. To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static electricity,
NEVER place your motherboard directly on the carpet or the like. Also
remember to use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safety grounded object
before you handle components.
3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.
4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or
in the bag that comes with the component.
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the power is
switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply.
Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals,
and/or components.

2.3 Installation of Memory Modules (SO-DIMM)
This motherboard provides two 204-pin DDR3 (Double Data Rate 3) SO-DIMM
slots.
It is not allowed to install a DDR or DDR2 memory module into DDR3
slot; otherwise, this motherboard and SO-DIMM may be damaged.
Installing a SO-DIMM
Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or
removing SO-DIMMs or the system components.
Step 1. Unlock a SO-DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.
Step 2. Align a SO-DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the SO-DIMM
matches the break on the slot.
The SO-DIMM only ts in one correct orientation. It will cause perma-
nent damage to the motherboard and the SO-DIMM if you force the SO-
DIMM into the slot at incorrect orientation.
Step 3. Firmly insert the SO-DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both
ends fully snap back in place and the SO-DIMM is properly seated.
