I/O Shield
Last response: in Motherboards
So I'm putting my new computer together and I couldnt get the motherboard to line up with the stand-offs because of the padding on my I/O Shield.
I decided to rip the stuff off because I didn't think I needed it on there but after I got it off it became clear that it wasn't made to be ripped off.
So can I run my computer with the I/O shield if I took the padding off it?
The motherboard is an Asus P8Z77-VPRO and it was a really thick anti-static padding

Remove the padding; it's probably for protection during shipping.It wasn't for shipping protection it was supposed to be an anti-static cushion which apparently Asus has on many of the i/o shields with their new motherboards.
This video shows one with the cushioning http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9lfou1NJ1Y
I ripped it off but now I just want to know if it puts me at risk of shorting my motherboard since it's just a metal shield now.
