1-2 HANDLING THE MOTHERBOARD

To avoid damage to your Motherboard, follow these simple rules

while unpacking:

Ø Before handling the Motherboard, ground yourself by grasping

an unpainted portion of the system's metal chassis.

Ø Remove the Motherboard from its anti-static packaging. Hold

the Motherboard by the edges and avoid touching its

components.

Ø Check the Motherboard for damage. If any chip appears loose,

press carefully to seat it firmly in its socket.

Warning: Do not apply power if the Motherboard appears

damaged. If there is damage to the board, contact your

dealer immediately.

1-3 ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS

Make sure to ground yourself before handling the Motherboard or

other system components. Electrostatic discharge can easily

damage the components. Note that you must take special

precautions when handling the Motherboard in dry or air-conditioned

environment.

To protect your equipment from electrostatic discharge, take the

following precautions:

Ø Do not remove the anti-static packaging until you are ready to

install.

Ø Ground yourself before removing any system component from

its protective anti-static packaging. (To ground yourself, grasp

the expansion slot covers or other unpainted portions of the

computer chassis.)

Ø Frequently ground yourself while working or use a grounding

strap.

HARDWARE SETUP

Congratulations on your purchase of SY-5SSM Super 7

TM

Motherboard. You are about to install and connect your new

Motherboard.

Note: Do not unpack the Motherboard from its protective

anti-static packaging until you have made the following

preparations.

2-1 Preparations

Gather and prepare all the following hardware equipment to

complete the installation successfully:

1. Pentium processor with CPU cooling fan.

2. DIMM memory module

3. Computer case and chassis with adequate power supply unit

4. Monitor

5. Keyboard

6. Pointing Device (PS/2 mouse)

7. Speaker(s) (optional)

8. Disk Drives: HDD, CD-ROM, Floppy drive…

9. External Peripherals: Printer, Plotter, and Modem (optional)

10. Internal Peripherals: Modem and LAN cards (optional)

Frequently Asked Questions:

l Do I need to install a VGA card?

l Do I also need to install a sound card?

The answer is NO to both questions above, since, for your

convenience, the SY-5SSM Motherboard already features one built-

in VGA port and three built-in audio-stereo ports (Line-out, Line-in,

Microphone).

Notice: If you plan on using the onboard VGA and intend to install

only one DRAM memory module, then this single DRAM must be

installed in bank DIMM1.

l What kind of speaker can connect to "Line-out" port?

This Motherboard requires a speaker with built-in amplifier to

generate proper output sound volume.

Hardware Setup SY-5SSM

2-2 Unpacking the Motherboard

When unpacking the Motherboard, check for the following items:

Ø The SY-5SSM SiS530 PCI/AGP Motherboard

Ø This Quick Start Guide *

Ø The Installation CD-ROM *

Ø One IDE Device Flat Cable

Ø One Floppy Disk Drive Flat Cable

Ø One serial port flat cable with a 9-pin connector

* If your board comes with a driver disc and a paper manual, the Quick Start Guide

and the CD-ROM are not included in the package.

Warning: Do not unpack the Motherboard from its anti-

static packaging until you are ready to install it.

Like most electronic equipment, your Motherboard may be damaged

by electrostatic discharge. To avoid permanent damage to

components ground yourself while working by using a grounding

strap. Otherwise, ground yourself frequently by touching the

unpainted portion of the computer chassis to drain the static

charges.

Handle the Motherboard carefully, holding it by the edges.

You are now ready to start the installation.

2-3 Installation Guide

We will now begin the installation of the Motherboard. Please follow

the step-by-step procedure designed to lead you to a complete and

correct installation.

Step 1. CPU Installation

Follow these instructions to install your Pentium

®

class processor

correctly.

Locate the CPU socket labeled Socket 7 on your Motherboard and

note the distinctive pinhole arrangement.

Note the corresponding pinhole arrangement on the processor.

Blunt Edge Blunt Edge

Hardware Setup SY-5SSM

Follow these steps to install the CPU in the Socket 7:

1. Lift the socket handle up to a vertical position.

2. Align the blunt edge of the CPU with the matching pinhole

distinctive edge on the socket.

3. Seat the processor in the socket completely and without forcing.

4. Then close the socket handle to secure the CPU in place.

Step 2. CPU Fan Installation

Your Pentium

®

processor kit comes with a cooling fan. Mount the fan

on the processor according to the instructions provided by the

manufacturer. The fan is a key component that will ensure system

stability. The fan prevents overheating, therefore prolonging the life

of your CPU.

Note: Remember to connect the fan to the appropriate power

source.

Step 3. CPU Voltage Setting (JP30)

Please verify the correct voltage with your dealer before installation.

Use the following tables to set JP30 to the proper "Voltage Value",

according to the specifications marked on your CPU: This

Motherboard comes with pre-configured setting of CPU voltage.

However the voltage of your CPU maybe different with the default

setting.

l CPU VOLTAGE SETTING (JP30)

JP30 are the only jumpers that you need t4o set for your CPU

voltage on this Motherboard.

There are two kinds of CPU voltages currently on the market

depending on the CPU manufacturer:

Ø Single Voltage (CPU: P54C, AMD-K5, Cyrix 6x86, IDT

WinChip C6/W2)

Ø Dual Voltage (CPU: P55C, AMD-K6, AMD-K6-2 Cyrix

6x86L,Cyrix 6x86MX, Cyrix M II)

Those processors may come in various voltages on different

markets. Therefore, always make sure you know the type of the

CPU you are installing and adjust the settings on JP30 accordingly.

This Motherboard supports CPU voltages from 2.0 to 3.52V in 0.1V

increments. Use the following tables to set the CPU voltage jumpers

JP30 to match the voltage value of your CPU:
