Hello all,
The question I am about to ask may seem pretty elementary to some of you
but I cannot sem to find an answer from any other resource. When mounting
a motherboard, as you know there are several holes for placing the
mounting screws. Around each hole is a solder coating. When should the
little red plastic washers be used and when not. Does the procedure
differ from AT to ATX? I have an ATX Gigabyte GA5AX512 Mobo which I have
mounted using the red plastic washers on all screws with no problems.
Some info on this would be helpful. The manual says nothing about it. I
have also searched "Upgrading and Repairing PC's" and "Tom's Hardware
Guide" Web site with no luck. Thanks.


Paul Sprague
