Chapter 2: Board Installation
You are now ready to install your motherboard. The mounting hole pattern of the S5396
matches the Extended ATX specification. Before continuing with installation, confirm that
your chassis supports an Extended ATX motherboard.
How to install our products right… the first time
The first thing you should do is reading this user’s manual. It contains important information
that will make configuration and setup much easier. Here are some precautions you should
take when installing your motherboard:
(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the antistatic
bag. Unplug the power from your computer power supply and then touch a safely
grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). For the safest
conditions, TYAN recommends wearing a static safety wrist strap.
(2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the board, or
flex the board in any way.
(3) Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips, connectors, memory
modules, and leads.
(4) Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the antistatic bag
that the board was shipped in.
(5) Inspect the board for damage.
The following pages include details on how to install your motherboard into your chassis,
as well as installing the processor, memory, disk drives and cables.
NOTE DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED
