2 Installing and Replacing Desktop Board Components This chapter tells you how to: • Install the I/O shield • Install and remove the desktop board • Install and remove a processor • Install and remove memory • Install and remove an AGP card • Connect the IDE cable • Connect the Serial ATA cable • Connect the front panel header • Connect front panel audio and USB solutions • Connect fans and power cables • Set the BIOS configuration jumper block • Clear passwords • Configure BIOS for SATA/SATA RAID • Replace the battery Before You Begin WARNINGS The procedures in this chapter assume familiarity with the general terminology associated with personal computers and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and modifying electronic equipment. Disconnect the computer from its power source and from any telecommunications links, networks, or modems before performing any of the procedures described in this chapter. Failure to disconnect power, telecommunications links, networks, or modems before you open the computer or perform any procedures can result in personal injury or equipment damage. Some circuitry on the board can continue to operate even though the front panel power button is off. CAUTION Before you install this board in a chassis, see Appendix B for regulatory requirements and precautions. • Always follow the steps in each procedure in the correct order. • Set up a log to record information about your computer, such as model, serial numbers, installed options, and configuration information. • Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedures described in this chapter only at an ESD workstation using an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam pad. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the computer chassis. 23
