Motherboard Installation

Before removing the Motherboard, ensure the power is off by checking this indicator light. (See section Before you proceed)

When lit, the onboard LED indicates that the system is ON, in sleep mode or in soft-off mode, not powered OFF.

Installing the ASUS Q-Shield

Place the I/O shield inside the chassis and press it into place so that it fits tightly and securely. Use caution so you do not deform the I/O shield.
