rado frequency energy and, f not nstalled and used n accordance wth the nstruc-
tons, may cause harmful nterference to rado communcatons. However, there s no
guarantee that nterference wll not occur n a partcular nstallaton. If ths equpment
does cause harmful nterference to rado or televson recepton, whch can be deter-
mned by turnng the equpment o and on, the user s encouraged to try to correct the
nterference by one or more of the measures lsted below.
Reorent or relocate the recevng antenna.
Increase the separaton between the equpment and recever.
Connect the equpment nto an outlet on a crcut derent from that to whch the
recever s connected.
Consult the dealer or an experenced rado/televson techncan for help.

enhance heat dsspaton.
Replacng the CPU
Whle replacng the CPU, always turn o the ATX power supply or unplug the power
supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet rst to ensure the safety of CPU.
