4-4 Installing the Motherboard

I/O Shield

The I/O shield holds the motherboard ports in place. Install the I/O shield before

you install the motherboard.

Installing the I/O Shield

Review the documentation that came with your motherboard. Become familiar 1.

with component placement, requirements, and precautions.

Open the chassis cover.2.

With the illustrations facing the outside of the chassis, place the shield into 3.

the space provided.

Once installed, the motherboard will hold the I/O shield in place.4.

Permanent and Optional Standoffs

Standoffs prevent short circuits by securing space between the motherboard and

the chassis surface. The SC936 chassis includes permanent standoffs in locations

used by most motherboards. These standoffs accept the rounded Phillips head

screws included in the SC936 accessories packaging.

Some motherboards require additional screws for heatsinks, general components

and/or non-standard security. Optional standoffs are included to these mother-

boards. To use an optional standoff, you must place the hexagonal screw through

the bottom the chassis and secure the screw with the hexagon nut (rounded side

up).
