Securing the Motherboard into the Chassis

Most computer chassis have a base with mounting studs or spacers to allow

the motherboard to be secured to the chassis and help to prevent short

circuits. If there are studs that do not align with a mounting hole on the

motherboard, it is recommended that you remove that stud to prevent the

possibility of a short circuit. In most cases, it is recommended to secure the

motherboard using a minimum of nine (9) spacers.

1.

Carefully place the motherboard onto the studs/spacers located inside the

chassis.

2.

Align the mounting holes with the studs/spacers.

3.

Align the connectors to the I/O shield.

4.

Ensure that the fan assembly is aligned with the chassis vents according

to the fan assembly instruction.

5.

Secure the motherboard with a minimum of nine screws.
