1-5 Static Electricity Precautions
Static electricity can easily damage your motherboard.
Observing a few basic precautions can help you safeguard against dam-
age that could result in expensive repairs. Follow the measures below to
protect your equipment from static discharge:
Keep the motherboard and other system components in their antistatic
packaging until you are ready to install them.
Touch a grounded surface before you remove any system component from
its protective antistatic packaging. A grounded surface within easy reach
is the expansion slot covers at the rear of the system case. or any other
unpainted portion of the system chassis.
During configuration and installation, touch a ground surface frequently to
discharge any static electric charge that may build up in your body. An-
other option is to wear a grounding wrist strap.
When handling a motherboard or an adapter card, avoid touching its
components.Handle the motherboardand adaptercards eitherby theedges
or by the mounting bracket that attaches to the slot opening in the case.
