Motherboards are
accompanied by
cables, manuals, and
driver software on CD-
ROMs. If all the ports are
on the board itself, then
you’ll get only two cables—
one to connect the hard disk
and another to connect the
floppy drive to the
motherboard.

However, often that’s not the case, and


you’ll end up getting more connectors for
connecting your parallel port, your COM
port, and so on. This is particularly the case
if you go in for Intel 810-based boards, which
have onboard video and sound. These need
to be hooked up to the cabinet so that the
monitor and the speaker, etc, can be
plugged in.

In some cases, all connectors won’t be


provided. This normally happens with USB.
The motherboard will support USB, but all that
you’ll get is a line of pins on which a USB port
can be plugged in. You’ll end up buying the
USB port separately. Watch out for such
boards.
