YEAR 2000 issue
The IBM compatible PC utilizes a Motorola MC146818 compatible Real-Time Clock (RTC) chip to
maintain the date and time. Unfortunately, the “century”is not manipulated by the RTC. It uses 8-
bits of information to report the year and can only hold the last two digits of a year in packed BCD
format. For example, 1997 is reported solely as 97. Since the RTC also contains non-volatile
memory, IBM specified a location in the memory to hold “century”information. By combining the
century data with the year data, software can obtain a full 4-digit year. When the Year 2000 occurs,
the RTC reports the year as ’00’and the “century”in RTC memory will contain ’19.’Combining the
full 4-digit year yields 1900, not 2000. Any applications which compare dates, or uses relative dates
to perform functions will see incorrect dates.
All motherboards contain BIOS, which is one of the key ingredients to check for systems designed to
handle the year 2000. All motherboards currently shipped from Iwill contain BIOS capable of
handling the year 2000 date correctly. The BIOS contains a feature that checks the least two
significant digits of the year stored in the RTC during each BIOS request (INT 1Ah) to read the date
and, if less than `80', updates the century byte to `20'. This feature enables operating systems and
applications using the BIOS date/time services to reliably manipulate the year as a four-digit value.
Be aware that the BIOS capability alone does not ensure that the system will handle the transition
correctly. Other system components such as the operating system and application software also need
to be able to handle the year 2000 date, and recognize the date format from other sources.

Quick Installation
Several easy installation steps will be described in this chapter to help the experienced users with
quick installation. If you are a beginner, or need to know more about this product, please refer to
Chapter 3.
Note: Please reviews 1.3 Motherboard Components Placement graphic for reference.
Warning: Users must follow these guidelines to ensure the BD100 Plus is protected during
installation.
a. Make sure your computer is unplugged whenever working with inside components.
b. Beware of Static electricity! Either wear anti-static wrist straps, or ensure that you
touch a safely grounded object (such as a metal desk/table). Don’t handle components
near high static objects (i.e. carpets, wool/ acrylic sweaters, etc.).
c. Pick up components by their bodies. Try not to touch IC chips, connectors or leads.
Don’t handle components any more than necessary.
d. Keep all magnets away from both your hard and floppy disk drives, especially magnetic
screwdrivers. Keep both floppy and hard disks apart if disassembled.
e. Keep water and liquids away from your computer and its components.
Step 1. Install processor
This process is for motherboards already equipped with the universal retention mechanism.
For Pentium II processors:
a. Lift each of the two retention mechanism brackets so that they stand fully upright.
You should hear a soft “click”sound once each bracket is in the correct upright
position.
b. With the CPU fan facing the DIMM sockets, insert the CPU horizontally into the
retention mechanism, sliding both edges in simultaneously and as “evenly”as
possible. Then, press down gently yet firmly so that the CPU is fully inserted
correctly into the socket.
c. Locate the two CPU lock switches, which are on the top, one on each side of the
CPU just above its respective bracket. With the CPU fan facing you, use both
hands and grasp the CPU, placing each thumb on top of each lock switch. Then,
at the same time “flip”each lock switch outward in opposite directions (both
away from the CPU fan). You should hear two “click”sounds, one from each
switch. This indicates the CPU is secured into place.
d. To release CPU, grasp the CPU (in the same manner in “c”above) and push both
lock switches inward (toward the CPU fan). You should hear two “click”sounds,
one from each switch. Lift CPU upward and out of the socket.

16
For Pentium III/Celeron processors:
a. Follow steps “a”~ “b”above.
b. Locate the two sliding locks on each bracket. Read the writing on each lock:
“OPEN”and “LOCK”. To lock, use your index finger and thumb, grasp each
lock, and gently slide upward. This may be done simultaneously with two hands,
or one at a time. Once each lock has been fixed upward, the CPU is secured into
place.
c. To release CPU, use your index finger and thumb, grasp each lock, and gently
push downward. Lift the CPU upward and out of the socket.
Step 2. Install processor fan
This process is executed more quickly if your Pentium II/III/Celeron processor already has a fan

a. Lift each of the two retention mechanism brackets so that they stand fully upright.
You should hear a soft “click”sound once each bracket is in the correct upright
position.
b. With the CPU fan facing the DIMM sockets, insert the CPU horizontally into the
retention mechanism, sliding both edges in simultaneously and as “evenly”as
possible. Then, press down gently yet firmly so that the CPU is fully inserted
correctly into the socket.
c. Locate the two CPU lock switches, which are on the top, one on each side of the
CPU just above its respective bracket. With the CPU fan facing you, use both hands
and grasp the CPU, placing each thumb on top of each lock switch. Then, at the
same time “flip”each lock switch outward in opposite directions (both away from
the CPU fan). You should hear two “click”sounds, one from each switch. This
indicates the CPU is secured into place.
d. To release CPU, grasp the CPU (in the same manner in “c”above) and push both
lock switches inward (toward the CPU fan). You should hear two “click”sounds,
one from each switch. Lift CPU upward and out of the socket.
For Pentium III/Celeron processors:
