Abstract: An improved planar support structure for a planar (22) of a personal computer system (10) is comprised of an integral structure (28,30) having a plurality of connector support frames (48). The planar support structure (28,30) is interposed between the planar (22) and a supporting structure (36) and securely fastened to each. Each frame (48) surrounds the perimeter of a corresponding connector (50) of the expansion slots (24) on the planar (22). Each frame (48) supports a connector (50) to prevent the connector (50) from flexing the planar (22) when an adapter board (32) is inserted into the connector. Additional alignment pins (44) associated with the planar support structure improve ease of assembly during construction of the system.
