How to Install a Motherboard

The process of replacing the motherboard began with removing the old motherboard. Now it's time to compare the old motherboard with the replacement motherboard to see how the physically match. I've pulled the I/O core shield out of the back of the case, and I've placed it on the I/O core of the old motherboard. You can see (if the flash isn't blinding you:-) that the old I/O core didn't have a game port or integrated sound, which the new motherboard supports. New motherboards should always ship with their own I/O shield, but with a second-hand replacement like we're using here, you have to make due. Fortunately, the old I/O shield has punch-outs in the proper locations.

Bios Jumper placed on mainboard

Only the current BIOS settings that the computer has been using are cleared, not the main settings, which are permanently placed into flash memory when the BIOS chip is flashed. (The BIOS can be reflashed with an updated file.) Unlike RAM memory, flash memory holds data without being powered. When the PC starts up and tries to access the BIOS settings, it finds none if the BIOS has been cleared by the reset jumper setting and it makes the BIOS copy the default settings from the flash memory into the RAM memory that is kept alive by the CMOS/BIOS battery. By placing the jumper over the two pins that allow the CMOS battery to power the CMOS chip that holds the settings, customised settings are retained. Removing the CMOS battery also removes the current settings. Any customised settings are lost. The CMOS/BIOS battery is shown on the left.
