1.1 XPC Introduction
The Shuttle XPC is the original high-performance Small Form Factor (SFF) computer.
Since the first model was introduced in 2001, the XPC has become the world’s best-
selling SFF computer brand.
Each Shuttle XPC is sold as a ”barebone” computer~chassis, power supply and
motherboard. The user must add his own processor, memory, drives and, as ap-
plicable, expansion cards. The XPC has been designed to be easily assembled and
configured directly by the end user. Consumers can choose to buy preconfigured,
ready-to-run XPC’s as well~a list of Shuttle-authorized value-added resellers can be
found at www.shuttle.com.
The Shuttle XPC owes its popularity to its unique combination of small-size, high-
performance and near universal component compatibility. However, unlike ordinary
desktop computers, Shuttle XPC’s have been engineered as complete systems.
The XPC concept can be summarized as:
Use of high-performance, industry-standard components; Minimum size possible,
while preserving component compatibility and system expansion; Focus on quality~a
commitment to quality construction, materials and industrial design.
To meet the above requirements, Shuttle has created and patented dozens of new
technologies, including the Integrated Cooling Engine (ICE), which extend and
enhance the personal computing experience while reducing heat, noise and space
requirements.
Thank you for choosing the Shuttle XPC!

Header JP4 can be used to provide operation status signals to the front daughterboard.
Note that this is an alternative header to the 50pins streamline header that also con-
nects the motherboard to the front daughterboard. Header JP5 is used to connect
cable to front panel connector mounted on front-panel or back-panel.
The front panel is where the hard drive activity lights, reset button, on/off button,
computer power on light, USB connectors, eSATA connectors, and audio headers,
are located.

2.2.2 Install the CPU
1. First unlock and raise the socket lever.
This 1366 pin socket is fragile and easily damaged. Always use extreme care when
installing a CPU and limit the number of times that you remove or change the CPU.
Before installing the CPU, make sure to turn off the computer and unplug the power
cord from the power outlet to prevent damage to the CPU.
Follow the steps below to correctly install the CPU into the motherboard CPU socket.
2. Unfasten the four ICE module
attachment screws and unplug
the fan connector.

4. Orientate the CPU and socket, aligning the yellow triangle on the corner of the CPU with
the triangle on the socket or you may align the CPU notches with the socket alignment
keys. Make sure the CPU is perfectly horizontal, insert the CPU into the socket.
2. Press Awith your thumb, then move it to the left Buntil it is released from the
retention tab. Lift the metal load plate on the CPU socket.

3. Remove the protective socket cover
from the CPU socket .
DO NOT touch socket contacts. To protect the CPU socket, always replace the
protective socket cover when the CPU is not installed.

2.3 Memory module Installation
2.3.1 Guidelines for Memory Configuration
Before installing DIMMs, read and follow these guidelines for memory configuration.
Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended that
memory of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used.
(Go to Shuttle's website for the latest memory support list.)
Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in
only one direction. If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.

(Red) Channel C, DIMM3
This motherboard provides four DDR3 memory sockets and supports Dual/ Triple Channel
Technology. After the memory is installed, the BIOS will automatically detect the specifi-
cations and capacity of the memory. Dual or Triple Channel memory mode may double
or triple the original memory bandwidth.
You may install varying memory sizes, the system maps the total size of the lower-sized
channel for the dual-channel or triple-channel configuration. Any excess memory from
the higher-sized channel is then mapped for single-channel operation.
