Installations
This section provides information on how to use the jumpers and
connectors on the MI930 in order to set up a workable system. The
topics covered are:
Installing the CPU........................................................................ 6
Installing the Memory.................................................................. 7
Setting the Jumpers...................................................................... 8
Connectors on MI930 ................................................................ 12

INSTALLATIONS
Installing the CPU
The MI930 board supports a Socket AM2 (940-pin) processor socket for
AMD Athlon™ 64 / Athlon™ 64 x2 (dual core) / Sempron™processors.
To install the CPU, unlock first the socket by pressing the lever
sideways, then lift it up to a 90 degree angle as shown below. Then,
position the CPU above the socket such that the CPU corner aligns with
the gold triangle matching the socket corner with a small triangle.
Carefully insert the CPU into the socket and push down the lever to
secure the CPU. Then, install the heatsink and fan.
NOTE: Ensure that the CPU heat sink and the CPU top surface are in
total contact to avoid CPU overheating problem that would
cause your system to hang or be unstable.

INSTALLATIONS
Installing the Memory
The MI930 board supports two DDR2 memory socket for a maximum
total memory of 4GB in DDR2 memory type.
Installing and Removing Memory Modules
To install the DDR2 modules, locate the memory slot on the board and
perform the following steps:
1. Hold the DDR2 module so that the key of the DDR2 module aligned
with that on the memory slot.
2. Gently push the DDR2 module in an upright position until the clips of
the slot close to hold the DDR2 module in place when the DDR2
module touches the bottom of the slot.
3. To remove the DDR2 module, press the clips with both hands.
