Thermal Solutions
As processor technology pushes to faster speed and higher performance,
thermal management becomes increasingly crucial to computer systems.
Maintaining the proper thermal environment is the key to reliable, long-term
system operation. The overall goal in providing the proper thermal environment is
keeping the processor's temperature 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.

of 133MHz processors and PC-100/PC-133 SDRAM. The BN860T motherboard
offers ULTRA DMA 66/100 (ATA 100) to provide higher data transfer rate to HDD
and to boost the overall system performance.
The BN860T also has an integrated AC'97 2.1 CODEC on board which is fully
competitive with Sound Blaster Pro that gives you the best sound quality and
ompatibility. VIA VT8601T chipset also includes integrated 3D Graphic Acceleration
to provide a lower-cost solution for video display.
With USB control as well as capability of expanding to 4 USB devices,
the BN860T meets future USB demand. Moreover, it has built-in hardware
monitor function which can monitor and protect your computer.

Hardware installation
2-1 Hardware installation Steps
2-1 Hardware installation Steps
Before using your computer, you had better complete the following steps:
1. Check motherboard jumper setting
2. Install CPU and Fan
3. Install System Memory (DIMM)
4. Install Expansion cards
5. Connect IDE and Floppy cables, Front Panel /Back Panel cable
6. Connect ATX Power cable
7. Power-On and Load Standard Default
8. Reboot
9. Install Operating System
10. Install Driver and Utility
2-2 Checking Motherboard’s Jumper Setting
(1) CMOS RAM Clear (3-pin): JB1
A battery must be used to retain the motherboard configuration in CMOS
RAM short pin1 and pin2 of JB1 to store the CMOS data.
To clear the CMOS, follow the procedure below:
1. Turn off the system and unplug the AC power
2. Remove ATX power cable from ATX power connector
3. Locate JB1 and short pin2 and pin2 for a few seconds
4. Return JB1 to its normal setting by shorting pin1 and pin2
5. Connect ATX power cable back to ATX power connector
Note: Do not clear CMOS unless
1. Trouble-shooting
2. You forget the password
3. You fail over-clocking system

11
2-3-2 Install CPU
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 theCPU cooling FAN is working correctly; otherwise, it may cause
overheating and damage the processor and motherboard. You may install
an auxiliary cooling FAN, if necessary.
Before installing a CPU, first of all, turn off your system and remove its cover.
Locate the ZIF socket and open it by pulling the lever sideways up away from
the socket then upward to a 90-degree angle. Insert the CPU with the
correct orientation as shown below.

12
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
fit only in the orientation as shown.
2-4 Install Memory
This motherboard provides two 168-pin DUAL INLINE MEMORY
MODULES (DIMM) sites for memory expansion from 32MB to 1GB SDRAM.
NOTE!
Make sure the total installed memory size does not exceed 1GB;
otherwise, the system may hang during startup.

13
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!
If the SDRAM CLOCK is set at 133MHz, you must use PC133-compliant
DIMMs. When this motherboard operates at 133Mhz, most system will not even
boot if nonPC133-compliant SDRAM modules are used because of
the strict timing issues. If your DIMMs are not PC133-compliant, set the SDRAM
clock at 100MHz to ensure system's stability.
2-5 Expansion Cards
WARNING!
Turn off the 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 of your expansion card and make any necessary
hardware or software setting, such as jumpers, for your expansion card.
2. Remove the chassis cover and the bracket plate on the slot you intend to use.
3. Align the card with slot and insert the card firmly.
4. Secure the card in the slot with the screen you remove above.
5. Replace the chassis cover.
6. Set up the BIOS if necessary.
7. Install the necessary software driver for your expansion card.
2-5-2 Assign IRQs For Expansion Card
Some expansion cards need an IRQ to operate. Generally, an IRQ must be
exclusively
assigned to one. In a standard design, there are 16 IRQs but most of them are
already in use.
Standard Interrupt Assignments
IRQ Priority Standard function
0 1 System Timer
1 2 Keyboard Controller
2 N/A Programmable Interrupt

2-7 Start Up Your Computer
1. After all the connections are made, close the chassis cover.
2. Be sure all the switches are off and check if the power supply input voltage is
set at the proper position. Usually the in-put voltage is 220V~240V or
110V~120V, depending the country.
3. Connect the power supply cord into the power supply located on the back of
your system case according to the user's manual of your system.
4. Turn on your peripherals as the following orders:
a. Your monitor.
b. Other external peripherals (Printer, Scanner, External Modem etc...)
c. Your system power. For ATX power supplies, you need to turn on the
power supply and press theATX power switch which is on the front panel
of the case.
5. The power LED on the front panel of the system case will be lit. The LED on
the monitor may be lit or switch between orange and green colors after the
system is on. If it complies with green standards or if it has the power stand-by
feature, the system will run the Power-on test. While the tests are running,
the BIOS will alarm beeps or additional message will appear on the screen.
