(1/5) > >>
yweiss:
Hello, so I think i fried my MOBO  :cry: so I'm getting now a new PC..
Now does anyone can post here a good tutorial how to disassemble the PC and the MOBO, from which thing I should care of? how to avoid the static? how to NOT burn any thing in the MOBO, I need a good and detailed tutorial.
thank for helping! picture will help

p.s
the old (fried) MOBO when I disassembled it I put it on my hairy carpet there is a chance that the carpet has a lot of static and it burned the MOBO?
what to do with the new MOBO when i disassemble it?  put it on the floor or on a wood?
another thing is that because the MOBO is gonna be mount on a wood the cards (sound,video,LAN) are not hold tight, is it ok? there is a way to connect them tighter?

Best bet is to buy a case that you can remove the mobo tray from.  Then, you just mount that to the wood prior to mounting the mobo.  Bonus points if the card retention hardware is mounted to the mobo tray!

I am just wondering why disassemble the pc at all?  Is there not enough room for the pc's case inside the cabinet?
As for the cards not being held tight, the cards are held by the slot on the motherboard and then screwed down to the case.  When you take the case away, you take away 1 of 2 things holding the cards.

Keep it away from carpet and wear an anti-static wristband
but yeah like he said, if you can just keep it in the case why not?

The problem is that i dont have room for it in the cab because i'm building jukebox inside an old cupbored.. so i have to get it out from its case, regular rubber gloves is good for tuching it? they anti static?
