Before proceeding with the installation
Before installing the motherboard please be sure to turn off or disconnect the
power supply unit. Before making any modifications to the hardware
configuration of the motherboard, the power supply to any areas of the
motherboard you plan to modify should be turned off to avoid unnecessary
damage to the hardware.

User friendly instructions
Our objective is to enable the novice computer user to perform the installation
by themselves. We have attempted to write this document in a very clear,
concise and descriptive manner to help overcome any obstacles you may face
during installation. Please read our instructions carefully and follow them
step-by-step.
2-2 Chapter 2
Installing the Motherboard to the Casing
Most computer chassis will have a base on which there will be many mounting
holes that allows the motherboard to be securely attached and at the same time,
prevents short circuits.
There are two ways to attach the motherboard to the base of chassis:
!with stud
!or with spacer
Please refer the figure below show the studs and spacers, they may have several
types, but all look like the figure below:
In principle, the best way to attach the motherboard is with studs, and only if
you are unable to do this should you attach the board with spacers. Take a
careful look at the motherboard and you will see many mounting holes on it.
Line these holes up with the mounting holes on the base. If the holes line up,
and there are screw holes this means you can attach the motherboard with studs.
If the holes line up and there are only slots, this means you can only attach the
motherboard with spacers. Take the tip of the spacers and insert it into the slots.
After doing this to all the slots, you can slide the motherboard into position
aligned with the slots. After the motherboard has been positioned, check to
make sure everything is OK before putting the casing back on.
The figure below will show you the way to fix the motherboard using with the
stub and spacer:
