Most, if not all of these parts can be bought together in what is known as a “barebones
kit”. In this instance, the case, motherboard, cpu, hard drive, and memory were bought
together from tigerdirect.com as a barebones kit for around $200. The DVD drive and
cables were purchased from newegg.com for less than $30 before shipping. There is an
obvious financial advantage to buying parts bundled together, but less obvious is the
benefit you will realize from the amount of time you save trying to research parts
compatibility.
Caution: Double check the manufacturer’s specifications on all items before you
purchase them. Kits are supposed to contain compatible parts, but mistakes can happen.

You may not use every single one of these tools in every installation, but it is best
to have all of them on hand in case you have a use for them.
Warning: Using incorrect tools for a task (such as turning a screw with a knife
blade) can cause equipment damage and bodily injury.

Open the computer case by removing the side panels. Find the screws that hold
the side panels in place and remove them (shown in figure 3 circled in red). The panel is
removed by first sliding it back (figure 4) then lifting it away from the case (figure 5).
Warning: Case may have sharp edges. Handle with care to avoid injury.
Remove any parts or packaging materials that may have been shipped inside the case
(figure 6).

Remove the cover for the optical drive. On our case, we will be removing the cover
on the highest drive bay to mount our DVD drive as shown in figure 7. Do this by
Make note of the cables pre-installed in the case. These should be front panel
connections for features such as the power switch, audio jacks and usb ports. If they
are not labeled, consult the manufacturer’s documentation and label them yourself
now before other parts are installed in the case (figure 8).
Put the grounding strap on your wrist (Figure 10) and connect the other end to the
computer case. If your strap is not equipped with a clip to hook to the case, find a
place to wedge against the metal as shown in figure 11. This will prevent any
components.

I/O Bezel is a trim panel installed in the back of the case that surrounds the interface
ports on the motherboard. It should be included with the motherboard. Figure 12 shows
Standoffs are installed in the case screw holes to create a riser that separates the case
and motherboard. The screws install into the standoffs as shown in figure 13. Screws and
standoffs should be included with the case, but it is a good idea to order these items just
1. Install the I/O bezel plate into the opening in the back of the case (figure 14). It pushes in

2. Install standoffs in the case. The standoffs screw into the motherboard mounting holes
shown in figure 14. Check the screw hole locations on the motherboard for exact
placement.
3. Lower the motherboard into the case and align with the I/O bezel.
Figure 15 shows the motherboard installed in the case. It works best to leave the
screws loose until all of them have been started and the board is aligned with the
bezel.
The hard drive is the device that stores all of your data. It is 3.5" wide and needs to be
mounted so that you can gain access to the cable connections on the back (figure 16). If
that is not possible you may need to connect cables before you install the drive. To
mount the drive:

BUTING SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL
1. Find a 3.5" drive bay to install the drive in. If you have trouble finding a place to mount
the drive consult your case documentation for suggestions.
2. Slide the drive into place until the screw holes on the sides are lined up with the holes in
the case.
The optical drive is 5.25" wide and is installed in the drive bay that we removed the cover
from in a previous step. Cable access considerations apply to this drive also. To install the
drive:
1. Slide the drive into the drive bay until the screw holes are lined up and the front of the
drive is flush with the front of the case (figure 18). Make sure that it is orientated correctly.

The CPU is the brain of the computer. It is installed on the motherboard in the socket
shown in figure 20.To install the CPU:
1. Find the corner marking that designates pin 1 of the CPU as shown in figure 19. On this
AMD brand processor, the corner is marked with an arrow. Consult the manufacturer's

The RAM is the temporary memory location that the processor works from. Permanently
stored data is pulled from disks and stored in RAM while the processor works with it. The
memory is easy to install:
1. Set the RAM board in the socket as shown in figure 22. Check to see that the notch in the

The CPU fan is really a combination of a heat sink and fan together. The unit draws heat
away from the CPU. To install the fan:
1. Place thermal compound to the CPU following the instructions provided with the
compound.
2. Set the fan assembly on the CPU with mounting tabs aligned.
3. Pull the locking rod down on the fan assembly to lock into place.
4. Connect the fan assembly's power connector to the motherboard. Consult the manual to
Caution: Failure to apply thermal compound will result in insufficient cooling and
will cause damage to the CPU and/or motherboard.

The case fan is usually installed on the back panel of the case. If the fan mount is not
obvious consult the case documentation. To mount the fan:
1. Align the mounting holes by holding the fan to the mounting pad on the inside of
the case as shown in figure 25. The fan needs to be mounted so that it blows air
2. Insert the screws from the outside of the case and tighten.

Consult your case documentation for details and then follow these directions to install
the power supply:
1. Align the mounting holes in the case and power supply as shown in figure 26.

Every device that has been installed needs power. In figure 27, the
power supply connectors are shown. The motherboard has two
power connections, and there are two connectors specifically for
SATA devices (drives). The other connectors will run fans and other
non-SATA devices.
Data cables connect drives and front panel devices to the
motherboard. Please consult the motherboard documentation for the
exact placement of connectors.

Now that the components are completely installed, the last thing to do is to
reinstall the side panels on the case. The computer is now ready to be turned on
and to have software loaded on it. If the computer has problems starting up, check
all component connections and mounting to make sure that you have hooked

Step 1: Strip the cable jacket about 1.5 inch down from the end.
Step 2: Spread the four pairs of twisted wire apart. For Cat 5e, you can use the pull
string to strip the jacket farther down if you need to, then cut the pull string. Cat 6
cables have a spine that will also need to be cut.
Step 3: Untwist the wire pairs and neatly align them in the T568B orientation. Be
sure not to untwist them any farther down the cable than where the jacket begins; we
want to leave as much of the cable twisted as possible.
26 | P a g e

Step 4: Cut the wires as straight as possible, about 0.5 inch above the end of the
jacket.
Step 5: Carefully insert the wires all the way into the modular connector, making
sure that each wire passes through the appropriate guides inside the connector.

Step 7: Repeat steps 1-6 for the other end of the cable.
Step 8: To make sure you've successfully terminated each end of the cable,
use a cable tester to test each pin.
When you're all done, the connectors should look like this:
That's it. For crossover cables, simply make one end of the cable a T568A and the
other end a T568B. Now you can make Ethernet cables of any length, fix broken
connectors, or make yourself a crossover cable. Happy crimping!
