SAFETY INFORMATION
Before installing and using the Trophy NR18 B3095, take note of the following
precautions:
— Read all instructions carefully.
— Do not place the unit on an unstable surface, cart, or stand.
— Do not block the slots and opening on the unit, which are provided for
ventilation.
— Only use the power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure,
contact the Power Company.

ground the unit and prevent electric shock. Do not defeat the purpose of this
pin. If your outlet does not support this kind of plug, contact your electrician to
replace your obsolete outlet.
— Do not place anything on the power cord. Place the power cord where it will
not be in the way of foot traffic.
— Follow all warnings and cautions in this manual and on the unit case.
— Do not push objects in the ventilation slots as they may touch high voltage
components and result in shock and damage to the components.
— When replacing parts, ensure that you use parts specified by the
manufacturer.
— When service or repairs have been done, perform routine safety checks to
verify that the system is operating correctly.
— Avoid using the system near water, in direct sunlight, or near a heating device.

Chapter 2: System Setup
Before You Begin
This chapter explains how to install the CPU, CPU heatsink, memory mod-
ules, and hard drives. Instructions on inserting a PCI card are also given.
Take note of the precautions mentioned in this section when installing your
system.
Work Area
Make sure you have a stable, clean working environment. Dust and dirt
can get into components and cause malfunctions. Use containers to keep
small components separated. Putting all small components in separate
containers prevents them from becoming lost. Adequate lighting and
proper tools can prevent you from accidentally damaging the internal com-
ponents.
Tools
The following procedures require only a few tools, including the following:
— A cross head (Phillips) screwdriver
— A grounding strap or an anti-static pad
Most of the electrical and mechanical connections can be disconnected
using your fingers. It is recommended that you do not use needle-nosed
pliers to remove connectors as these can damage the soft metal or plastic
parts of the connectors.

2-2
Precautions
Components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by discharges
of static electricity. Working on a system that is connected to a power
supply can be extremely dangerous. Follow the guidelines below to avoid
damage to the Trophy NR18 or injury to yourself.
• Ground yourself properly before removing the top cover of the system.
Unplug the power from the power supply and then touch a safely grounded
object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). If available, wear
a grounded wrist strap. Alternatively, discharge any static electricity by
touching the bare metal chassis of the unit case, or the bare metal body of
any other grounded appliance.
• Avoid touching motherboard components, IC chips, connectors,
memory modules, and leads.
• The motherboard is pre-installed in the system. When removing the
motherboard, always place it on a grounded anti-static surface until you
are ready to reinstall it.
• Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do not touch the
components on the board unless it is necessary to do so. Do not flex or
stress circuit boards.
• Leave all components inside the static-proof packaging that they ship
with until they are ready for installation.
• After replacing optional devices, make sure all screws, springs, or
other small parts are in place and are not left loose inside the case. Metal-
lic parts or metal flakes can cause electrical shorts.
Notes:
• All connectors are keyed to only attach one way.
• Always use the correct screw size as indicated in the procedures.
