Static Electricity Precautions
Components on this mainboard can be damaged by static
electricity. Take the following precautions when unpacking the
mainboard and installing it in a system.
1. Keep the mainboard and other components in their original
static-proof packaging until you are ready to install them.
2. During installation, wear a grounded wrist strap if possible. If
you don’t have a wrist strap, discharge static electricity by
touching the bare metal of the system chassis.
3. Handle the mainboard carefully by the edges. Avoid touching
the components unless it is absolutely necessary. During
installation put the mainboard on top of the static-protection
packaging it came in with the component side facing up.
Pre-Installation Inspection
1. Inspect the mainboard for damage to the components and
connectors on the board.
2. If you suspect that the mainboard has been damaged, do not
connect power to the system. Contact your mainboard vendor
and report the damage.

Mainboard Components
Use the diagram below to identify the major components on the
mainboard.
Note: Any jumper on your mainboard that do not appear in
the illustration above is for testing only.
I/O Ports
The illustration below shows a side view of the built-in I/O ports
on the mainboard.

2: Mainboard Installation
Install CPU
This mainboard has a Socket-A which supports AMD K7
processors.
To ensure reliability, ensure that your processor has a
heatsink cooling fan assembly.
Do not try to install a Socket-370/Socket-7 processor in the
Socket-462. A Socket-370/Socket-7 processor such as the PPGA
Celeron, FCPGA Pentium-III, Pentium-MMX, or the AMD K5/K6
does not fit in the Socket-462.
The following list notes the processors that are currently supported
by this mainboard.
Athlon: 650 MHz~1.4 GHz, FS : 200 MHz, 266 MHz
Duron: 550~950 MHz, FS : 200 MHz
Installing a Soc et-462 Processor
A processor installs into the ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) Socket-462
on the mainboard.
1. Locate the Socket-462 and CPUFAN. Pull the locking lever
out slightly from the socket and raise it to the upright position.
2. On the processor, identify the Pin-1 corner by its beveled edge.
3. On the Socket-462, identify the Pin-1 corner. The Pin-1 corner
is at the top of the locking lever when it locked.

CPUFAN Socket-462
Pin-1 Corner

Mainboard User’s Manual
4. Match the Pin-1 corners and insert the processor into the
socket. No force is required and the processor should drop into
place freely.
5. Swing the locking lever down and hook it under the catch on
the side of the socket. This secures the CPU in the socket.
6. All processors should be installed with a combination heatsink/
cooling fan, connect the cable from the fan to the CPU fan
power connector CPUFAN.
Install Memory
The mainboard has two 168-pin/184-pin DIMM sockets for
SDRAM/DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM system memory
modules. You must install at least one memory module in order to
use the mainboard, and you can only use one of the both
SDRAM and DDR SDRAM at the same time.
DDR SDRAM provides 800 M ps or 1 G ps data transfer
depending on whether the bus is 100 MHz or 133 MHz. It doubles
the rate to 1.6 G ps and 2.1 G ps by transferring data on both the
rising and falling edges of the clock. DDR SDRAM uses additional
power and ground lines and requires 184-pin 2.5V unbuffered
DIMM module reather than the 168-pin 3.3V unbuffered DIMMs
used by SDRAM.
For this mainboard, the maximum memory size is 1G .
The edge connectors on the memory modules have cut outs, which
coincide with spacers in the DIMM sockets so that memory
module can only be installed in the correct orientation.

2: Mainboard Installation
To install a module, push the retaining latches at either end of the
socket outwards. Position the memory module correctly and insert
it into the DIMM socket. Press the module down into the socket so
that the retaining latches rotate up and secure the module in place
by fitting into notches on the edge of the module.

Setting Jumper Switches
Jumpers are sets of pins which can be connected together with
jumper caps. The jumper caps change the way the mainboard
operates by changing the electronic circuits on the mainboard. If a
jumper cap connects two pins, we say the pins are SHORT. If a
jumper cap is removed from two pins, the pins are OPEN.
Jumper JP1: Keyboard Power On Selector
If you enable the keyboard power on feature, you can use hot keys
on your keyboard as a power on/off switch for the system.
Note: The system must provide 1A on the +5VSB (+5V Standby)
signal before using the Keyboard Power On function.
Function Jumper Setting
Disable Keyboard Power On Short Pins 1-2
Enable Keyboard Power On Short Pins 2-3
Jumper JP4: Clear CMOS Memory
Use this j mper to clear the contents of the CMOS memory. Yo
may need to clear the CMOS memory if the settings in the Set p
Utility are incorrect and prevent yo r mainboard from operating. To
clear the CMOS memory, disconnect all the power cables from the
mainboard and then move the j mper cap into the CLEAR setting
for a few seconds.

2: Mainboard Installation
Install the Mainboard
Install the mainboard in a system chassis (case). The board is an
ATX size mainboard with a twin-tier of I/O ports. You can install
this mainboard in an ATX case. Ensure that your case has an I/O
cover plate that matches the ports on this mainboard.
Install the mainboard in a case. Follow the instructions provided by
the case manufacturer using the hardware and internal mounting
points on the chassis.
Connect the power connector from the power supply to the
ATX_PWR1 connector on the mainboard.
If there is a cooling fan installed in the system chassis, connect the
cable from the cooling fan to the SYSFAN fan power connector on
the mainboard.
Connect the cable from the PC speaker to the SPK1 header on the
mainboard.
Connect the case switches and indicator LEDs to the FP1 header.
If there are a headphone jack or/and a microphone jack on the front
panel, connect the cables to the FP_AUDIO1 header on the
mainboard. See the illustrations below for the guide to the FP1 and
FP_AUDIO headers pin assignments.

disk drive connector FDC.
IDE Devices
IDE devices include hard disk drives, high-density diskette drives,
and CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drives, among others.
The mainboard ships with an IDE cable that can support one or
two IDE devices. If you connect two devices to a single cable, you
must configure one of the drives as Master and one of the drives as
Slave. The documentation of the IDE device will tell you how to
configure the device as a Master or Slave device. The Master
device connects to the end of the cable.
Install the device(s) and connect power from the system power
supply. Use the cable provided to connect the device(s) to the
Primary IDE channel connector IDE1 on the mainboard.
If you want to install more IDE devices, you can purchase a second
IDE cable and connect one or two devices to the Secondary IDE
channel connector IDE2 on the mainboard. If you have two
devices on the cable, one must be Master and one must be Slave.
