Hardware Installation
2-1 Unpacking
This mainboardpackage shouldcontainthefollowing:
•The TX98 mainboard
•USER’S MANUAL for mainboard
•Cable set for IDE x1, Floppy x1, COM1 & COM2 x1, LPT & PS/2 Mouse x1,
VGA x1
•CD for Drivers PACK
The mainboard contains sensitive electronic components which can be easily
damaged by electron-static, so the mainboard shouldbeleft in its original packing
until itis installed.
Unpackingandinstallationshouldbedoneon a groundedanti-staticmat.
The operator should be wearing an anti static wristband, grounded at the same
pointas theanti-static mat.
Inspect the mainboard carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling may
cause damageto yourboard. Besuretherearenoshippingandhandlingdamages
on the board before proceeding.
After openingthemainboardcarton, extract the system board andplace it onlyon
a grounded anti-static surface component side up. Again inspect the board for
damage.
Press down on all of the socket IC’s to make sure that they are properly inserted.
Do thisonlyon with the board placed on a firm flatsurface.
Warning: Do not apply power to the board if it has been damaged.
You are now ready to install your mainboard. The mountinghole pattern on the
mainboardmatches the IBM-AT system board.
It is assumed that the chassis is designed for a standard IBM XT/AT mainboard
mounting. Place thechassison the anti-static mat andremove the cover.
Take the plastic clips, Nylon stand-off and screws for mountingthesystem board,
andkeep them separate.

This main board can be installed with 72 pin SIMM module DRAM, or 168 pins
DIMM module synchronous DRAM. The DRAM memory system on main board
consistsof BANK 0 & BANK1, for 72 pin SIMM socket was definedto be BANK0,
BANK1 and SDRAM1 & SDRAM2 to be BANK 0 & BANK 2 (SIMM1, SIMM2,
SIMM3 & SIMM4).
Becauseofthe 72-pinsSIMM moduleis 32 bits width using2pcs which can match

2-7 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The main board providesa 321-pinsZIF Socket 7. The CPU on mother board must
havea fan attachedto prevent overheating.
WARNING: Without a fan, the CPU will be overheated and cause damage to both the
CPU and the motherboard.

11
To install a CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover. Locate the ZIF
socket and open it by first pulling the lever sideways away from the socket then
upwardsto a90-degreerightangle. InserttheCPUwiththewhitedotasyourguide.
The whitedot shouldpointtowardstheendof thelevel. The CPU hasa corner pin
for three of the fourcorners, the CPU will only fitin the oneorientation as shown as
follow. With theaddedweightoftheCPUfan,noforceisrequiredto inserttheCPU.
Once completely inserted, hold down on the fan and close the socket’s lever.
IMPORTANT: You must set jumpers JP4 “DIP Switch for CPU Type” on page7 and jumper
