Intel Pentium 4 Processor Family
Cooling 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. Note, those heatsinks are
recommended for maintaining the specified Maximum T case requirement. In addition, this collection
is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of all heatsinks that support Intel processors.

2-3-2 About Intel Pentium 4 478-pin CPU
8

This motherboard provides a 478-pin surface mount, Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket,
referred to as the mPGA478B socket supports Intel Pentium 4 processor in the 478 Pin
package utilizes Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array (FC-PGA2) package technology.
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.
CPU ZIF mPGAB Socket
Colden Arrow
mPGA478B
When you put the CPU into the ZIF socket. No force require to insert of the CPU, then press
the level to Locate position slightly without any extra force.
2-4 Install Memory
This motherboard provides two 184-pin DDR DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES
(DIMM) sites for DDR memory expansion available from minimum memory size of 64MB to
maximum memory size of 2.0GB SDR SDRAM, or one 168-pin SDR DIMM sites for
SDRAM memory for maximum memory size of 1.0GB.

Generally, installing SDR/DDR SDRAM modules to your motherboard is very easy, you can
refer to figure 2-4 to see what a 168-pin SDR/184-pin DDR SDRAM module looks like.
DDR2 (BANK2+ BANK3
)
DDR1 (BANK0+ BANK1
)
SDR1 (BANK0+ BANK1)
Figure 2-4
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 SDR SDRAM CLOCK is set at 133MHz, use only PC133/DDR266-
compliant SDR/DDR Modules. 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 SDR/DDR Modules are not PC133/DDR266-compliant, set
the SDRAM clock to 100MHz to ensure system stability.
NOTE! It is only can install either SDRAM or DDR Module at one time. Don’t install
both DDR Module and SDR Module at same time, it will have risk to damage
your Memory and Motherboard.
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.
Standard Interrupt Assignments
IRQ Priority Standard function
0 N/A System Timer

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.

(12) Secondary IDE Connector (40-pin block): IDE2
This connector connects to the next set of Master and Slave hard disks. Follow the
same procedure described for the primary IDE connector. You may also configure two
hard disks to be both Masters using one ribbon cable on the primary IDE connector and

•Two hard disks can be connected to each connector. The first HDD is referred to as the
“Master” and the second HDD is referred to as the “Slave”.
•For performance issues, we strongly suggest you don’t install a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM
drive on the same IDE channel as a hard disk. Otherwise, the system performance on this
channel may drop.

2-7 Starting Up Your Computer
1. After all connection are made, close your computer case cover.
2. Be sure all the switch are off, and check that the power supply input voltage is set to
proper position, usually in-put voltage is 220V∼240V or 110V∼120V depending on your
country’s voltage used.
3. Connect the power supply cord into the power supply located on the back of your system
case according to your system user’s manual.
4. Turn on your peripheral as following order:
a. Your monitor.
b. Other external peripheral (Printer, Scanner, External Modem etc…)
c. Your system power. For ATX power supplies, you need to turn on the power supply
and press the ATX power switch on the front side of the case.
5. The power LED on the front panel of the system case will light. The LED on the monitor
may light up or switch between orange and green after the system is on. If it complies
with green standards or if it is has a power standby feature. The system will then run
power-on test. While the test are running, the BIOS will alarm beeps or additional
message will appear on the screen.
If you do not see any thing within 30 seconds from the time you turn on the power. The
system may have failed on power-on test. Recheck your jumper settings and connections
or call your retailer for assistance.
Beep Meaning
One short beep when displaying logo No error during POST
Long beeps in an endless loop No DRAM install or detected
One long beep followed by three short
beeps
Video card not found or video card memory
bad
High frequency beeps when system is
working
CPU overheated
System running at a lower frequency
6. During power-on, press <Delete> key to enter BIOS setup. Follow the instructions in
BIOS SETUP.
7. Power off your computer: You must first exit or shut down your operating system
before switch off the power switch. For ATX power supply, you can press ATX power
switching after exiting or shutting down your operating system. If you use Windows 9X,
click “Start” button, click “Shut down” and then click “Shut down the computer?”
The power supply should turn off after windows shut down.
