Pre-installation Precautions
Take note of the following precautions before you install mother-
board components or change any motherboard settings.
1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the
motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
2. To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static
electricity, NEVER place your motherboard directly on the carpet
or the like. Also remember to use a grounded wrist strap or touch
a safety grounded object before you handle components.
3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.
4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded
antstatic pad or in the bag that comes with the component.

Step 1. Unlock the socket by lifting the lever up to a 90oangle.
Step 2. Position the CPU directly above the socket such that its marked corner
matches the base of the socket lever.
Step 3. Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place.
The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU
into the socket to avoid bending of the pins.
Step 4. When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push down
the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab to
indicate that it is locked.
Step 5. Install CPU fan and heatsink. For proper installation, please kindly refer to
the instruction manuals of your CPU fan and heatsink vendors.

Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)
P4i65PE-M motherboard provides two 184-pinDDR (DoubleData Rate)DIMM slots.
Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or
removing DIMMs or the system components.
Step 1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.
Step 2. Align aDIMM on the slot such that the notch on theDIMM matches the break
on the slot.
The DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent
damage to the motherboard and theDIMM if you force the DIMM into
the slot at incorrect orientation.
Step 3. Firmly insert theDIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends fully
snap back in place and theDIMM is properly seated.

2.4 Jumpers Setup
The illustration shows how jumpers are
setup. When the jumper cap is placed on
pins, the jumper is “SHORT”. If no jumper cap
is placed on the pins, the jumper is “OPEN”.
The illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose
pin1 and pin2 are “SHORT” when jumper cap
is placed on these 2 pins.
Jumper Setting Description
PS2_USB_PWR1 Short pin2, pin3 to enable
(see p.2 No. 1) +5VSB (standby) for PS/2
or USB wake up events.
Note: To select +5VSB, it requires 2 Amp and higher standby current provided by
power supply.
JR1(see p.2 No. 24)
JL1(see p.2 No. 24)
Note: If the jumpers JL1 and JR1 are short, both the front panel and the rear panel
audio connectors can work.
ClearCMOS
(CLRCMOS0, 2-pin jumper)
(see p.2 No. 18)
Note: CLRCMOS0 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in CMOS includes
system setup information such as system password, date, time, and system
setup parameters. To clear and reset the system parameters to default setup,
please turn off the computer and unplug the power cord, then use a jumper
cap to short the pins on CLRCMOS0 for 3 seconds. Please remember to
remove the jumper cap after clearing the CMOS. If you need to clear the
CMOS when you just finish updating the BIOS, you must boot up the system
first, and then shut it down before you do the clear-CMOS action.

This motherboard adopts Intel ICH5 south bridge chipset that supports Serial ATA
(SATA) hard disks. You may install SATA hard disks on this motherboard for
internal storage devices. This section will guide you to install the SATA hard disks.
STEP1: Install the SATA hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis.
STEP2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA hard disk.
STEP3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard’s primary
SATA connector (SATA1).
STEP4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the primary SATA hard
disk. If you just want to install only one SATA HDD, the installation
process is complete at this step. If you want to install two SATA HDDs,
please continue to do the following steps.
STEP5: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA hard disk.
STEP6: Connect one end of the second SATA data cable to the motherboard’s
secondary SATA connector (SATA2).
STEP7: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the secondary SATA hard
disk.
Before you install OS into the SATA hard disk, you need to check and
ensure the configuration of the OnBoard IDE Operate Mode option in
BIOS setup is correct according to the condition of your system. For
the configuration details, please refer to the instruction on page 25 of
“User Manual” in the Support CD.
