There are two things everybody needs to know about fitting new motherboards. First, every mobo requires a blood sacrifice. I got mine over with nice and early, and managed to avoid dripping blood all over the board as I screwed it in. I think you get extra marks if you manage to drip blood on the CPU.
Second, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. No, really. READ THEM. I spent an hour thinking I’d completely broken my motherboard, only to discover that, when putting in a single stick of RAM, put it in slot B-1. Who’d have thought it? Not me obviously.
Here endeth the lesson.
