Hardware Setup
This chapter provides you with the information about hardware setup
procedures. While doing the installation, be careful in holding the compo-
nents and follow the installation procedures. For some components, if you
install in the wrong orientation, the components will not work properly.
Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. Static
electricity may damage the components.
This chapter contains the following topics

CPU Installation Procedures
The mainboard operates with the whole series of new generation Intel®
Pentium® III (FC-PGA/FC-PGA2) processors. The mainboard uses a CPU
socket called Socket 370 for easy CPU installation. The CPU should always
have a Heat Sink and a cooling fan attached to prevent overheating.
1. Pull the lever sideways away
from the socket. Then, raise
the lever up to a 90-degree
angle.
2. Look for the gold arrow.
The gold arrow should point
towards the end of lever.
The CPU will only fit in the
correct orientation.
3. Hold the CPU down firmly,
and then close the lever to
complete the installation.

CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure
If CPU Clock = 100MHz
Core/Bus ratio = 8.5
then CPU core speed = Host Clock x Core/Bus ratio
= 100MHz x 8.5
= 850MHz
While replacing the CPU, always turn off the ATX
power supply or unplug the power cable of the ATX
power supply from grounded outlet first to ensure the
safety of CPU.
