Chapter 2: Board Installation

You are now ready to install your motherboard. The mounting hole pattern of

the Thunder K8HR matches the ATX specification. Before continuing with

installation, confirm that your chassis supports an 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

2.4 - Tips on Installing Motherboard in Chassis

Before installing your motherboard, make sure your chassis has the

necessary motherboard support studs installed. These studs are usually

metal and are gold in color. Usually, the chassis manufacturer will pre-install

the support studs. If you are unsure of stud placement, simply lay the

motherboard inside the chassis and align the screw holes of the

motherboard to the studs inside the case. If there are any studs missing,

you will know right away since the motherboard will not be able to be

securely installed.

Some chassis’ include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic

studs are usable, TYAN recommends using metal studs with screws that will

fasten the motherboard more securely in place.

Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look

like and how they should be installed.
