Congratulations on purchasing the MS9007C mainboard. The

MS9007C mainboard is an ATX mainboard that uses a 4-layer

printed circuit board and measures 305 mm x 244 mm. The

mainboard features a Socket 423 that accommodates Intel

Pentium 4 processors supporting system bus (FSB) speeds

up to 400 MHz and data bus bandwidths up to 3.2 GB/s

The MS9007C incorporates the Intel i82845 (MCH) and the

Intel 82801BA (ICH2) chipsets, which supports 3.3V DIMM

DRAM, 2X/4X AGP (1.5V only), and the AC 97 codec.

Processor

The MS9007C mainboard uses a PGA Socket

423 that has the following features:

• Accommodates Intel Pentium 4 CPUs

• Supports a system bus of 400 MHz

• Supports 3.2 GB/s data bus bandwidth

Chipset

Intel’s innovative i82845 (MCH) and 82801BA

(ICH2) chipsets are based on an innovative and

scalable architecture with proven reliability and

performance. A few of the advanced features of

the chipsets are:

• Host interface controller supports 400 MHz

frontside (system) bus frequency

• Supports up to 3 GB of DRAM

• Supports a maximum memory bandwidth of 1

GB/s

• AGP controller is AGP 2.0 compliant and sup-

ports 2x/4x Fast Write Protocol (1.5V only)

• PCI IDE controller supports PCI bus master-

ing, PIO modes 0~4, and UDMA 33/66/100

• Four USB 1.1 ports for serial transfer at 1.2 or

1.5 Mbit/sec.

• Integrated AC 97 audio that supports full sur-

round sound with up to six channels

Additional key features include support for an AC 97

link for audio and modem, hardware monitoring, and

ACPI/OnNow power management.

Memory

The mainboard can accommodate 3.3V, unbuf-

fered, 168 pin DIMM DRAM with a total capacity

of 3 GB.

VGA

The MS9007C includes a 4xAGP slot that provides

four times the bandwidth of the original AGP specifi-

cation. AGP technology provides a direct connection

between the graphics sub-system and the processor

so that the graphics do not have to compete for

processor time with other devices on the PCI bus.

3

AC 97 Audio

Codec

The AC 97 Audio codec is compliant with the AC

97 2.2 specification, and supports 18-bit ADC

(Analog Digital Converter) and DAC (Digital

Analog Converter) resolution as well as 18-bit

stereo full-duplex codec with independent and

variable sampling rates.

Expansion

Options

The mainboard comes with the following expan-

sion options:

• Six 32-bit PCI slots

• One 4xAGP slot

• One Communications Network Riser (CNR)

slot

• Two IDE channels and a floppy disk drive in-

terface

• One Onboard LAN chip and LAN port on top

of the USB port (optional)

The MS9007C supports Ultra DMA bus mastering

with transfer rates of 33/66/100 MB/sec.

Integrated I/O

The mainboard has a full set of I/O ports and con-

nectors:

• Two PS/2 ports for mouse and keyboard

• Two serial ports

• One parallel port

• One MIDI/game port

• Two USB ports

• One LAN port (optional)

• Audio jacks for microphone, line-in and line-out

BIOS

Firmware

This mainboard uses Award BIOS that enables

users to configure many system features including

the following:

• Power management

• Wake-up alarms

• CPU parameters and memory timing

• CPU and memory timing

The firmware can also be used to set parameters

for different processor clock speeds.

There are many types of computer cases on the market. The

mainboard complies with the specifications for the ATX sys-

tem case. Some features on the mainboard are implemented

by cabling connectors on the mainboard to indicators and

switches on the system case. Ensure that your case supports

all the features required. The mainboard can support one

floppy diskette drives and four enhanced IDE drives. Ensure

that your case has sufficient power and space for all the

drives that you intend to install.

Most cases have a choice of I/O templates in the rear panel.

Make sure that the I/O template in the case matches the I/O

ports installed on the rear edge of the mainboard.

This mainboard has a ATX form factor of 305 mm x 244 mm.

Choose a case that accommodates this form factor.

This concludes Chapter 1. The next chapter explains how to

install the mainboard.

Follow these safety precautions when installing the mainboard:

• Wear a grounding strap attached to a grounded device

to avoid damage from static electricity.

• Discharge static electricity by touching the metal case

of a safely grounded object before working on the

mainboard.

• Leave components in the static-proof bags they came

in.

• Hold all circuit boards by the edges. Do not bend cir-

cuit boards.

This section explains how to set jumpers for correct configu-

ration of the mainboard.

Setting Jumpers

Use the mainboard jumpers to set system configuration op-

tions. Jumpers with more than one pin are numbered. When

setting the jumpers, ensure that the jumper caps are placed

on the correct pins.

Short Open

This illustration shows a 2-pin

jumper. When the jumper cap is

placed on both pins, the jumper is

SHORT. If you remove the jumper

cap, or place the jumper cap on

just one pin, the jumper is OPEN.

This illustration shows a 3-pin

jumper. Pins 1 and 2 are SHORT.

JP1

– Enables you to clear the BIOS. Refer to the following instruc-

tions:

1. Turn the system off.

2. Remove all ATX power connectors.

3. Short pins 2 and 3 on JP1.

4. Return the jumper to the normal setting.

5. Plug in all ATX power connectors.

JP2

– Enables and disables the BIOS from being updated (flashed).

Set the jumper to enabled if you are going to update your

BIOS. After updating the BIOS, return it to the disabled setting.

For instructions on updating the BIOS refer to Chapter 3.

Refer to the following illustration and instructions for installing

the mainboard in a case:

This illustration shows

an example of a main-

board being installed in

a tower-type case:

Note:

Do not over-

tighten the

screws as this

can stress the

mainboard.

Most system cases have

mounting brackets in-

stalled in the case,

which correspond to the

holes in the mainboard.

Place the mainboard

over the mounting

brackets and secure the

mainboard onto the

mounting brackets with

screws.

2. Secure the mainboard with

screws where appropriate.

1. Place the mainboard

over the mounting brackets.

Ensure that your case has an I/O template that supports the

I/O ports and expansion slots on your mainboard.

After you have installed the mainboard into a case, you can

begin connecting the mainboard components.

1. Supply power to the mainboard using the three ATX

connectors.

• Connect the 20-pin power supply connector to

ATX1 (connection is required).

Note

: When the system is heavily loaded, you should

install, at a minimum, an ATX power supply

with a 300W capacity.

2. Connect the CPU cooling fan cable to CPUFAN1.

3. Connect the case cooling fan connector to CASFAN1.
