2. Unlock the socket by pressing the
lever sideways, then lift it up to a 90°-
100° angle.
3. Position the CPU above the socket
such that its marked corner matches
the base of the socket lever.
4. Carefully insert the CPU into the
socket until it fits in place.
5. When the CPU is in place, push
down the socket lever to secure the
CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab
to indicate that it is locked.
6. Install a CPU heatsink and fan
following the instructions that came
with the heatsink package.
7. Connect the CPU fan cable to the
CPU_FAN1 connector on the
motherboard.

2. Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount 478-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)
socket. The socket is designed for the Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 Northwood/Prescott
processor in the 478-pin package with 512KB L2 cache. This processor supports
800/533/400MHz front side bus (FSB), and allows data transfer rates of 6.4GB/s,
4.2GB/s, and 3.2GB/s.
Follow these steps to install a CPU.
1. Locate the 478-pin ZIF socket on the motherboard.
Make sure that the socket lever is lifted
up to 90°-100°angle, otherwise the
CPU does not fit in completely.
Socket Lever
90 -100
The CPU fits only in one correct
orientation. DO NOT force the CPU
into the socket to prevent bending
the pins and damaging the CPU!

3. System memory
The motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate (DDR) Dual Inline Memory
Module (DIMM) sockets. These sockets support up to 2GB system memory using
184-pin unbuffered non-ECC PC2700/PC2100 (FSB533) or PC2100/PC1600
(FSB400) DDR DIMMs.
The following figure illustrates the location of the DDR DIMM sockets.

Memory configurations
You may install 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB DDR DIMMs into the
DIMM sockets using the memory configurations in this section.
Important notes on memory configurations
1. Installing DDR DIMMs other than the recommended configurations may
cause memory sizing error or system boot failure. Use any of the
recommended configurations in Table 1.
2. Install only identical (the same type and size) DDR DIMM pairs using the
recommended configurations.
3. Make sure that the memory frequency matches the CPU FSB (Front Side
Bus). Refer to Table 2 below.
4. Double-sided 16-bit DDR DIMMs are not supported on this motherboard.
5. It is not recommended to create a three-DIMM configuration in dual-
channel mode. The third DIMM is ignored in the dual-channel operation.

Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or
other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both
the motherboard and the components.
Follow these steps to install a DIMM.
1. Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing
the retaining clips outward.
2. Align a DIMM on the socket such that
the notch on the DIMM matches the
break on the socket.
3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the socket
until the retaining clips snap back in
place and the DIMM is properly
seated. Unlocked Retaining Clip

4. E pansion slots
The motherboard has three PCI slots and one Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) slot.
To install and configure an expansion card:
1. Install an expansion card following the instructions that came with the chassis.
NOTE: The AGP slot supports only +0.8V and +1.5V AGP cards.
2. Turn on the system and change the necessary BIOS settings, if any.
3. Assign an IRQ to the card. Refer to the tables below.
4. Install the drivers and/or software applications for the expansion card
according to the card documentation.

6 ASUS P4SD-LA (Yale) motherboard
Install only +0.8V/+1.5V AGP cards on this motherboard!
PCI slots
There are three 32-bit PCI slots on this motherboard. The slots support PCI cards
such as a LAN card, SCSI card, USB card, and other cards that comply with PCI
specifications.
AGP slot
This motherboard has an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) slot that supports
+0.8V AGP 8X and +1.5V AGP 4X cards. When you buy anAGP card, make sure
that you ask for one with +0.8V+1.5V specification.
Note the notches on the card golden fingers to ensure that they fit the AGP slot on
your motherboard.
