Preparing Your Computer
Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To
protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you
work on your computer.
1. Unplug your computer when working on the inside.
2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have one,
touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power
supply case.
3. Hold components by the edges and try not touch the IC chips, leads or connectors, or other
components.
4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components
whenever the components are separated from the system.
5. Ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off before you plug in or remove the ATX power
connector on the motherboard.
Installing the motherboard to the chassis
If the motherboard has mounting holes, but they don't line up with the holes on the base and there are
no slots to attach the spacers, do not become alarmed you can still attach the spacers to the mounting
holes. Just cut the bottom portion of the spacers (the spacer may be a little hard to cut off, so be careful of
your hands). In this way you can still attach the motherboard to the base without worrying about short
circuits. Sometimes you may need to use the plastic springs to isolate the screw from the motherboard
PCB surface, because the circuit wire may be near by the hole. Be careful, don't let the screw contact
any printed circuit write or parts on the PCB that are near the fixing hole, otherwise it may damage the
board or cause board malfunctioning.

Hardware Installation Process
To set up your computer, you must complete the following steps:
Step 1- Set System Jum per (JP1)
Step 2- Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Step 3- Install memory modules
Step 4- Install expansion cards
Step 5- Install I/O Peripherals cables
Step 1: Set System Jumper (JP1)
The system bus frequency can be switched at 100/133/166/200M Hz by adjusting system jumper (JP1).
(The internal frequency depend on CPU.)
The "JP1" must set to "Auto" when you are using
FSB 266/333/400MHz CPU.

Step 2: Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Before installing the processor, adhere to the following warning:
1. Please make sure the CPU type is supported by the motherboard.
2. The processor will overheat without the heatsink and/or fan, resulting in permanent
irreparable damage.
3. If you do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and CPU cut edge well, it will cause
improper installation. Please change the insert orientation.
4. Apply therm al grease between the processor and cooling fan.
5. Never run the processor without the heatsink properly and firmly attached. Permanent
dam age will result.
6. Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor's specifications.
We don't recommend you to set the system bus frequency over the CPU's specification
because these specific bus frequencies are not the standard specifications for CPU,
chipset and most of the peripherals. Whether your system can run under these specific
bus frequencies properly will depend on your hardware configurations, including CPU,
Memory, Cards… etc.
Step 2-1: CPU Installation
Figure 1.
Pull the rod to the 90-degree
directly.
Figure 2.
Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look
for a (golden) cut edge on the CPU
upper corner. Insert the CPU into
the socket. (Do not force the CPU into the socket.) Then move the
socket lever to the locked position while holding pressure on the
center of the CPU.
Step 2-2: CPU Cooling Fan Installation
Figure 1.
Apply the thermal tape(or grease)
to provide better heat conduction
between your CPU and cooling
fan.
Figure 2.
Fasten the cooling fan support-
ing-base onto the CPU socket
on the motherboard.

512 Mbit(16Mx8x4 banks) 512 Mbit(8Mx16x4 banks)
Total System Memory (Max3GB)
Step 3: Install Memory Modules
Before installing the mem ory modules, adhere to the following warning:
1. When DIMM LED is ON, do not install / remove DIMM from socket.
2. Please note that the DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the one notch. Wrong
orientation will cause improper installation. Please change the insert orientation.
The motherboard has 3 dual inline mem ory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically detects
mem ory type and size. To install the mem ory m odule, just push it vertically into the DIMM socket. The
DIM M module can only fit in one direction due to the notch. Memory size can vary between sockets.
DDR
Notch
1. The DIM M socket has a notch, so the DIM M
memory module can only fit in one direction.
2. Insert the DIM M m emory module vertically into
the DIMM socket. Then push it down.
3. Close the plastic clip at both edges of the DIMM
sockets to lock the DIMM module.
Reverse the installation steps when you wish to
remove the DIMM module.
