replacement materials, service time, and freight. Please consult your dealer for more
details. If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:
1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU type and
speed, BCM products model name, hardware & BIOS revision number, other hardware
and software used, etc.) Note anything abnormal and list any on-screen messages you
get when the problem occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product, and any
helpful information available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return material authorization)

1. Safety Precautions
1.1 Warning!
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your chassis whenever
you work with the hardware. Do not make connections while the power is on.
Sensitive electronic components can be damaged by sudden power surges.
Only experienced electronics personnel should open the PC chassis.
1.2 Caution!
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the CPU
card. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges.
As a safety precaution, use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all
electronic components in a static-dissipative surface or static-shielded bag
when they are not in the chassis.
