HARDWARE INSTALLATION
2.1 Central Processing Unit: CPU
The MS-5156 mainboard operates with Intel®Pentium® processors/
Pentium®processors with MMXTM technology, Cyrix®6x86/6x86L/
6x86MX and AMD®K5/K6 processors. It could operate with 2.8V to
3.52V processors. The mainboard provides a 321-pin ZIF Socket 7 for easy
CPU installation, a DIP switch (SW1) to set the proper speed for the CPU
and a Jumper block (JV2 - JV5) for setting the CPU voltage. The CPU
should always have a cooling fan attached to prevent overheating.
