Thermal Solutions
As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance, thermal management
becomes increasingly crucial when building computer systems. Maintaining the proper
thermal environment is key to reliable, long-term system operation. The overall goal in
providing the proper thermal environment is keeping the processor below its specified
maximum case temperature. Heatsinks induce improved processor heat dissipation through
increased surface area and concentrated airflow from attached fans. In addition, interface
materials allow effective transfers of heat from the processor to the heatsink. For optimum
heat transfer, Intel recommends the use of thermal grease and mounting clips to attach the
heatsink to the processor.
When selecting a thermal solution for your system, please refer to the website below for
collection of heatsinks evaluated and recommended by Intel for use with Intel processors.

2-3-1 About PentiumIII & Celeron™ 370-pin CPU
This motherboard supports both Pentium III & Celeron 370 pins CPU.
The way to recognize the specification of CPU from the packing Pentium III 370 pins
FC-PGA
On the surface of the CPU as shown on the right picture, under the word of “PENTIUM III”
the code is:

10
RB 80526 P2 866 256
RB :
FC–PGA packing
P2 :
P2–133MHz front side bus frequency
PY–100MHz front side bus frequency
866 :
CPU internal frequency, where here is
866MHz
256 :
the size of L2 cache, where here is 256K
Celeron FC–PGA
On the surface of the CPU as shown on the right picture, under the word of “Celeron” the
code is:
566/128/66/1.5V
566 :
CPU internal frequency, where here is 566MHz
128 :
the size of L2 cache, where here is 128K
66 :
front side bus frequency, where here is 66MHz
1.5V : the voltage for the CPU
2-3-2 Setting CPU Bus Clock & Memory Clock Jumper
Setting the front side bus frequency and SDRAM frequency
The motherboard uses jumper JP16, JP17 and J5 for the front side bus frequency and SDRAM
frequency setting as shown from the table below:
CPU/SDRAM (MHz) J16 JP17 J5
66/100 2-3 2-3 2-3
100/100 1-2 2-3 2-3
133/100 1-2 1-2 1-2
Example: Using a PentiumIII 866 CPU with front side bus frequency of 133MHz
and PC-133 SDRAM module, the setting of JP16, JP17 and J5 will be all 1-
2. Will form CPU BUS CLOCK be 133MHz and SDRAM CLOCK be
100MHz.
For experience user looking for over clocking, please refer to sec 2-3-4
2-3-3 Install CPU

11
This motherboard provides a ZIF socket 370. The CPU that comes with the motherboard
should have a cooling FAN attached to prevent overheating. If this is not the case, then
purchase a correct cooling FAN before you turn on your system.
WARNING! Be sure that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor’s
heatsink and CPU cooling FAN is working correctly, otherwise it may
cause the processor and motherboard overheat and damage, you may install
an auxiliary cooling FAN, if necessary.
To install a CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover. Locate the ZIF socket and
open it by first pulling the level sideways away from the socket then upward to a 90-degree
angle. Insert the CPU with the correct orientation as shown below. The notched corner
should point toward the end of the level. Because the CPU has a corner pin for two of the
four corners, the CPU will only fit in the orientation as shown.

2-3-4 Over clock Running
WARNING! This section is for experienced motherboard installer only. Over clocking
can result in system instability or even shortening life of the processor.
After setting the Jumper JP16, JP17 and J5 you can choose over clock running by BIOS
CMOS SETUP UTILITY. When you entered CMOS SETUP UTILITY, choose “Frequency/
Voltage control” you will see the screen as below then.

suggest user running over clock.
2-4 Install Memory
This motherboard provides two 168-pin DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES (DIMM)
sites for memory expansion available from minimum memory size over 32MB to maximum
memory size of 512MB SDRAM.
Valid Memory Configurations Total Memory
DIMM1 DIMM2

NOTE! Make sure the total installed memory does not exceeds 512MB, otherwise the
system may hang during startup.
Generally, installing SDRAM modules to your motherboard is very easy, you can refer to
figure 2-4 to see what a 168-Pin PC100 & PC133 SDRAM module looks like.

NOTE! When you install DIMM module fully into the DIMM socket the eject tab should be
locked into the DIMM module very firmly and fit into its indention on both sides.
WARNING! For the SDRAM CLOCK is set at 133MHz, use only PC133-compliant DIMMs.
When this motherboard operate at 133Mhz, most system will not even boot if
non-compliant modules are used because of the strict timing issues, if your
DIMM are not PC133-compliant, set the SDRAM clock to 100MHz to ensure
system stability.
2-5 Expansion Cards
WARNING! Turn off your power when adding or removing expansion cards or other
system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both
your motherboard and expansion cards.
2-5-1 Procedure For Expansion Card Installation
1. Read the documentation for your expansion card and make any necessary hardware or
software setting for your expansion card such as jumpers.
2. Remove your computer’s cover and the bracket plate on the slot you intend to use.
3. Align the card’s connectors and press firmly.
4. Secure the card on the slot with the screen you remove above.
5. Replace the computer system’s cover.
6. Set up the BIOS if necessary.
7. Install the necessary software driver for your expansion card.
2-5-2 Assigning IRQs For Expansion Card
Some expansion cards need an IRQ to operate. Generally, an IRQ must exclusively assign to
one use. In a standard design, there are 16 IRQs available but most of them are already in use.

Onboard USB 0 Shared
Onboard USB 1 Shared
IMPORTANT! If using PCI cards on shared slots, make sure that the drivers support
“Shared IRQ” or that the cards don’t need IRQ assignments. Conflicts will
arise between the two PCI groups that will make the system unstable or
cards inoperable.
2-5-4 TV OUT Slot
This Slot require an option LCD/TV-out card. Installing the LCD/ TV-out card you can
connect to LCD Monitor or TV. By this card can let you have the same screen in both VGA
monitor and LCD monitor or TV and VGA monitor.

the full power will not come into the system board until the front panel switch is
momentarily pressed. Press this switch again will turn off the power to the system
