Hardware Setup
2-1
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.
Besides, please use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer
components. Static electricity may damage the components.

Central Processing Unit: CPU
The mainboard supports AMD® DuronTM / Athlon processors. The
mainboard uses a CPU socket called Socket A for easy CPU installation.
Make sure that the CPU has a Heat Sink and a cooling fan attached to
prevent overheating. If you do not find the Heat Sink and cooling fan,
contact your dealer or purchase them before turning on the computer.
Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and
system. After inserting the Heat Sink and cooling fan
, check if the cooling fan can work properly to protect
the CPU.
!
WARNING!
1. Pull the lever sideways away
from the socket. Then, raise the
lever up to a 90-degree
angle.
2. Look for the cut edge. The
cut edge should point
towards the lever pivot. The
CPU will only fit in the
correct orientation.
3. Hold the CPU down firmly,
and then close the lever to
complete the installation.

OVERCLOCKING
he motherboard are designed to support overclocking.
Make sure your components are able to tolerate such
abnormal setting while doing overclocking. Any attempt to
operate beyond product specifications is not recommended.
We do not guarantee the damages or risks caused by
inadequate operation or beyond product specification.
!
WARNING!
CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure
The mainboard can not automatically set the CPU Host Bus Frequency
Clock. Please refer to 2-22 SW1 for the manual setting.
If CPU Clock = 100MHz (set by SW1)
Core/Bus ratio = 7
then CPU core speed = Host Clock x Core/Bus ratio
= 100MHz x 7
= 700MHz

Memory Installation
The mainboard provides 2 sockets for 184-pin single or double side
DDR memory modules. To operate properly, at least one DDR module must be
installed. The mainboard supports the memory size from 32MB to 2 GB.

You can install memory modules in any combination as follows
Socket Memory Module Total Memory
Socket 1 (Bank 0 & Bank 1) 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB 32MB~512MB
Socket 2 (Bank 2 & Bank 3) 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB 32MB~512MB
Total System Memory 32MB~2GB

Hardware Setup

Installing DDR Module
1. The DDR slot has 2 Notch Keys VOLT and DRAM, so the DDR
memory module can only fit in one direction.
2. Insert the DDR memory module vertically into the DDR slot. Then
push it in.
3. The plastic clip at the side of the DDR slot will automatically close.

Power Supply
ATX 20-Pin Power Supply
This connector allows you to connect to an ATX power supply. To
connect to the ATX power supply, make sure the plugs of the power supply
insert in the proper orientation and the pins are aligned. Then push down the
power supply firmly into the connector.
The mainboard supports ATX power supply for the power system. As
the mainboard has the instant power on function, make sure that all compo-
nents are installed properly before inserting the power supply connector to
ensure that no damage will be done.
