Chapter 1 Motherboard Description
The 4D845AP motherboard is designed for using Intel P4
Front Side Bus Frequency 400/533MHz CPU, which utilizes
the Socket-478 design and the memory size expandable to
2.0GB.
This motherboard use the latest Intel 845E chipset,
appling 266MHz (Double Data Rate) Front Side Bus frequency
and 266MHz memory interface delivers a clear upgrade path to
the future generation of 266MHz processors, PC-1600/PC-2100
DDR SDRAM. The 4D845AP motherboard offers ULTRA ATA
100 to provide speedier HDD throughout that boosts overall
system performance.
It is ideal for multi-tasking and fully supporting MS-DOS,
Windows, Windows NT , Windows ME, Windows 2000, Novell,
OS/2, Windows95/98, Windows 98SE, Windows XP, UNIX,
Liunx, SCO UNIX etc. This manual also explains how to install
the mainboard for operation, and how to setup your CMOS
configuration with the BIOS setup program.

The motherboard operates with Socket 478 for Intel P4TM
processor. The CPU should always has a Heat Sink and cooling fan
attached to prevent overheating.
CPU Installation Procedures: Socket 478
1. Pull the lever sideways away from the socket then raise
the lever to a 90-degree angle.
2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for the white dot or
cut edge in the CPU. Match Pin 1 with the white dot or
cut edge then insert the CPU.
3. Press the lever down to complete the installation.
4. Make sure the spec of the cooling fan is good enough.
5. Make sure that the cooling fan and retention mechanism
assembly perfectly fits the heatsink and module
base, otherwise you can’t snap the hooks into the holes.

The motherboard supports a maximized 2GB memory. It provides
three 184-pin unbuffered DDR sockets. It supports 64MB to 1GB
DDR memory module.
DDR SDRAM Installation Procedures:
1. The DDR socket has a “Plastic Safety Tab” and the DDR
memory module has an asymmetrical notch”, so the
DDR memory module can only fit into the slot in one
direction.
2. Push the tabs out. Insert the DDR memory modules
into the socket at a 90-degree angle then push down
vertically to fit onto place.
3. The Mounting Holes and plastic tabs should fit over the
edge and hold the DDR memory modules in place.
