Step 3
Install the two metal standoffs (included in the accessory kit) in place of the two screws that are labeled
A in
Figure 22. Use a 1/4-inch nut driver to tighten the standoffs. (See Figure 24.)
Step 4
For most AIMs, install the plastic standoff (Figure 23)) in place of the screw that is labeled B in
Figure 22. Tighten it firmly with your fingers, or very carefully using a 3/16-inch open-end wrench. The
shoulder must be seated tight against the system board. (See Figure 24.)
