Chapter 2: Board Installation

You are now ready to install your motherboard.

How to install our products right… the first time

The first thing you should do is reading this user’s manual. It contains

important information that will make configuration and setup much easier.

Here are some precautions you should take when installing your

motherboard:

(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from

the antistatic bag. Unplug the power from your computer power

supply and then touch a safely grounded object to release static

charge (i.e. power supply case). For the safest conditions, TYAN

®

recommends wearing a static safety wrist strap.

(2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of

the board, or flex the board in any way.

(3) Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips,

connectors, memory modules, and leads.

(4) Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the

antistatic bag that the board was shipped in.

(5) Inspect the board for damage.

The following pages include details on how to install your motherboard into

your chassis, as well as installing the processor, memory, disk drives and

cables.

DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN

DAMAGED.

Processor Installation (G34 1944-pin Socket for AMD CPU)

Follow the steps below to install the processors and heatsinks

Please note that the illustrations are based on a G34 1944-pin Socket

which may be look exactly like the motherboard you purchased.Therefore,

the illustrations should be held for your reference only.

Step 1: Locate the CPU socket.

Step 2: Press the load lever with

your thumb, and then move it to

the right until it released from the

retention tab.

Step 3: Move the load lever to a

fully open position .

http://www.TYAN.com

Step 4: Lift the load plate to a fully

open position .

Step 5: Remove the PnP cap

from the CPU socket.

The CPU Socket is illustrated in

the image right.

http://www.TYAN.com

20

Step 6: Position the CPU over the

socket, ensuring that the gold

triangle is on the bottom-left

corner of the socket.

The CPU fits in only one

correct orientation. DO

NOT force the CPU into

the socket to prevent

bending the connectors on

the socket and damaging

the CPU.

Step 7: Close the load lever of the

socket and press the CPU socket

lever down to lock the CPU in

place.

Step 8: Insert the load lever under

the retention tab. Repeat the

same procedures to install the

other CPU.
