The 7KT333 motherboard is designed for using AMD Athlon
and Duron Front Side Bus Frequency 200/266MHz CPU, which
utilize the Socket-462 design and the memory size expandable to
3.0GB.
This motherboard use the latest VIA KT333 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/PC-2700
DDR DRAM. The 7KT333 motherboard offers ULTRA ATA 100/
133 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 462 for AMD
AthlonTM and DuronTM processor. The CPU should always has a
Heat Sink and cooling fan attached to prevent overheating.
CPU Installation Procedures: Socket 462
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 installation.
4. Make sure the spec of the heat sink is good enough.
5. Please lock the fan on CPU very carefully, or you
will damage the resistor array even circuit line
on the motherboard.
