PC Alert™ 4
The PC AlertTM 4 is a utility you can find in the CD-ROM disk. The utility
is just like your PC doctor that can detect the following PC hardware status
during real time operation:
Ømonitor CPU & system temperatures
Ømonitor fan speeds
Ømonitor system voltages
If one of the items above is abnormal, the program main screen will be
immediately shown on the screen, with the abnormal item highlighted in red.
This will continue to be shown until the condition returns to the normal status.
Users can use the Adjusting Keys to change the minimum and maximum
threshold of each item for the system to send out a warning message. Click
Temperature to select the temperature modes of either Fahrenheit (℉) or Cel-
sius (℃). The PC Alert4 icon on the Status Area will show the current CPU
temperature.

MSI Reminds You...
The new feature COOLER XP will work only if your mainboard
supports AMD Athlon XP CPU.
Items shown on PC Alert 4 vary depending on your system’s status.
To better protect the CPU from overheating, a new feature, COOLER
XP, has been added to decrease the temperature of AMD Athlon XP CPU. To
do so, simply click COOLER XP and the screen will show the Cute skin (as
shown below) with information about the CPU and chipset. Right-click the
mouse to select the skin you want to switch to.

Setup
This chapter tells you how to install the CPU, memory
modules, and expansion cards, as well as how to setup the jump-
ers on the mainboard. Also, it provides the instructions on con-
necting the peripheral devices, such as the mouse, keyboard,
etc.
While doing the installation, be careful in holding the
components and follow the installation procedures.

CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure
If CPU Clock = 100MHz
Core/Bus ratio = 17
then CPU core speed = Host Clock x Core/Bus ratio
= 100MHz x 17
= 1.7 GHz
The mainboard supports Intel®Pentium®4 Williamette, Celeron,
Northwood processor in the 478 pin package. The mainboard uses a CPU
socket called PGA478 for easy CPU installation. When you are installing the
CPU, make sure the CPU has a heat sink and a cooling fan attached on
the top to prevent overheating. If you do not find the heat sink and cooling
fan, contact your dealer to purchase and install them before turning on the
computer.
MSI Reminds You...
Overheating
Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system, al-
ways make sure the cooling fan can work properly to protect
the CPU from overheating.
Replacing the CPU
While replacing the CPU, always turn off the ATX power sup-
ply or unplug the power supply’s power cord from grounded
outlet first to ensure the safety of CPU.

650GLMD Micro ATX Mainboard
CPU Installation Procedures for Socket 478
1. Please turn off the power and
unplug the power cord before
installing the CPU.
2. Pull the lever sideways away
from the socket. Make sure
to raise the lever up to a 90-
degree angle.
3. Look for the gold arrow. The
gold arrow should point to-
wards the lever pivot. The
CPU can only fit in the correct
orientation.
4. If the CPU is correctly
installed, the pins should be
completely embedded into the
socket and can not be seen.
Please note that any violation
of the correct installation
procedures may cause
permanent damages to your
mainboard.
5. Press the CPU down firmly
into the socket and close the
lever. As the CPU is likely to
move while the lever is being
closed, always close the lever
with your fingers pressing
tightly on top of the CPU to
make sure the CPU is
properly and completely
embedded into the socket.
