CPU Installation
1. Pull the lever sideways away from the socket then raise the lever up
to 90-degree angle.
2. Locate Pin A in the socket and lock for the white dot or cut edge in
the CPU. Match Pin A with the white dot/cut edge then insert the
CPU.
3. Press the lever down. Then Put the fan on the CPU and buckle it
and put the fan’s power port into the JCFAN1, then to complete the
installation.

* The list shown above for DRAM configuration is only for reference.
How to install a DIMM Module
1. The DIMM socket has a
“ Plastic Safety Tab”, and the
DIMM memory module has an
“Asymmetrical notch”, so the
DIMM memory module can
only fit into the slot in one
direction.
2. Push the tabs out. Insert the
DIMM memory modules into
the socket at a 90-degree
angle, then push down
vertically so that it will fit into
the place.
3. The Mounting Holes and
plastic tabs should fit over the
edge and hold the DIMM
memory modules in place.

Jumpers, Headers, Connectors & Slots
Hard Disk Connectors: IDE1/ IDE2
The motherboard has a 32-bit Enhanced PCI IDE Controller that
provides PIO Mode 0~4, Bus Master, and Ultra DMA / 33/ 66/ 100/ 133
functionality. It has two HDD connectors IDE1 (primary) and IDE2
(secondary).
The IDE connectors can connect a master and a slave drive, so you can
connect up to four hard disk drives. The first hard drive should always be
connected to IDE1.
Floppy Disk Connector: FDD1
The motherboard provides a standard floppy disk connector that
supports 360K, 720K, 1.2M, 1.44M and 2.88M floppy disk types. This
connector supports the provided floppy drive ribbon cables.
Audio Modem Riser Slot: AMR1
(Only support slave card)
The AMR specification is an open Industry Standard Architecture and
that defines a hardware scalable riser card interface, which supports
audio and modem only.
Peripheral Component Interconnect Slots: PCI1-2
This motherboard is equipped with 2 standard PCI slots. PCI stands for
Peripheral Component Interconnect, and it is a bus standard for
expansion cards. This PCI slot is designated as 32 bits.
Accelerated Graphics Port Slot: AGP1
Unlike the mouse ports, keyboard ports and printer ports, this
motherboard does not have built in video facilities; and therefore,
requires a video card for one of the expansion slots. Your monitor will
attach directly to that video card. Tis motherboard supports video cards
for PCI, but is also equipped with an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP).
An AGP card will take advantage of AGP technology for improved video
efficiency and performance, especially with 3D graphics.

Cómo instalar un Módulo DIMM
1. El zócalo DIMM tiene una
lengüeta plástica de seguridad y el
módulo de memoria DIMM tiene
una muesca asimétrica, así el
módulo de memoria DIMM puede
caber solamente en la ranura de
una sóla dirección.
2. Tire la lengüeta hacia afuera.
Inserte los módulos de memoria
DIMM en el zócalo a los 90 grados,
luego empuje hacia abajo
verticalmente de modo que encaje
en el lugar.
3. Los agujeros de montaje y las
lengüetas plásticas deben caber
por sobre el borde y sostenga los
módulos de memoria DIMM en el lugar.

Conectores, Cabezales, Puentes y Ranuras
Conectores del Disco Duro: IDE1/ IDE2
La placa madre tiene un controlador de 32-bit PCI IDE que proporciona
Modo PIO 0~4, Bus Master, y funcionalidad Ultra DMA 33/ 66/ 100/ 133.
Tiene dos conectores HDD IDE1 (primario) y IDE2 (secundario).
El conector IDE puede conectar a un master y un drive esclavo, así
puede conectar hasta cuatro discos rígidos. El primer disco duro debe
estar siempre conectado al IDE1.
Conector para el Disquete: FDD1
La placa madre proporciona un conector estándar del disquete (FDC)
que soporta 360K, 720K, 1.2M, 1.44M y 2.88M tipos de disquete. Éste
conector utiliza los cables de cinta proporcionados por el disquete.
Ranura Audio y Módem Riser: AMR1
La especificación AMR es una Arquitectura de Industria Estándar y
define una tarjeta elevadora de interface del hardware en el que soporta
solamente audio y módem.
Ranura de Interconexión del Componente Periférico:
PCI1-2
Ésta placa madre está equipada con 2 ranuras estándar PCI. PCI es la
sigla para Interconexión del Componente Periférico, y es un bus
estándar para tarjetas de expansión. Ésta ranura PCI está diseñado
con 32 bits.
Ranura del Puerto Acelerado para Gráficos: AGP1
A diferencia del puerto para ratón, puertos para teclado y puertos para
impresora, ésta placa madre no tiene integrada facilidades de video, por
lo tanto necesita una tarjeta de video para una de las ranuras de
expansión. Su monitor se fijará directamente a la tarjeta de video.
Ésta placa madre soporta tarjetas de video para PCI, pero también está
equipada con puerto AGP. La tarjeta AGP tomará ventaja de la
tecnología del AGP para el mejoramiento de la eficiencia y
funcionamiento del video, especialmente con gráficos 3D.
