CHAPTER 2 HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Chapter 2
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
It is important to set jumpers correctly. Improper jumper setting
will cause system instability, destruction of components, and/or
system hang-up.
Step 1: Set the CPU US CLOCK and Core Frequency Ratio
(see “JC1 Jumper” section)
JC1 is used for CPU US CLOCK and bus to core
frequency ratio. Caution: If these jumpers aren’t set
correctly, it will cause the system to be unstable or system
hang-up, and it may reduce the life cycle of the CPU.
Step 2: Install CPU, VRM, DRAM, Expansion Card, and External
cables (see “Connectors” section)
Caution: All parts need to be set to avoid system board
malfunction.
Step 3: Turn Power on and setup IOS software (see “ IOS Setup”
section)
