Step 1
CPU Installation:
This mainboard supports Intel Pentium 4/Celeron , Socket 478 series CPU.
Please follow the step as below to finish CPU installation.
Be careful of CPU orientation when you plug it into CPU socket.
1. Pull up the CPU socket lever and up to 90-degree angle.
2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for a black dot or cut edge on the CPU
upper interface. Match Pin 1 and cut edge, then insert the CPU into the
socket.
CPU pin 1 and cut edge
CPU socket lever up to
90 degree

- 13 -
3. Press down the CPU socket lever and finish CPU installation.
Note: If you do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and CPU cut edge
well, it may damage the CPU.
4. The Intel Pentium 4/Celeron processor requires a set of heatsink/fan to en
sure proper cooling of the processor. If heatsink/fan have not been already
bundled with your CPU, you must purchase the heatsink/fan separately and
have it installed. Plug the cable through the heatsink/fan in the CPU fan
power connector located nearby. Note that there are several types of CPU
fan connectors. Normally, if your mainboard supports the hard ware moni
toring function, a 3-pin fan power connector should allow your system to
detect the CPU fan's speed. The CPU fan can also run with a 2-pin fan
power connector, however, detection of CPU fan's speed is not supported.
Another type of CPU fan may feature a large 4-pin fan power connector,
which does not support CPU fan's speed detection and must be directly
connected to the system's power supply unit.

- 14 -
Step 2.
Set Jumpers
This mainboard is jumperless! The default jumper settings have been set for the
common usage standard of this mainboard. Therefore, you do not need to reset
the jumpers unless you require special adjustments as any of the following cases:
1. Clear CMOS
2. LAN Enable/Disable
For first-time DIY system builders, we recommend that you do not change the
default jumper settings if you are not totally familiar with the mainboard con-
figuration procedures. The factory-set default settings are tuned for optimum
system performance. For the advanced users who wish to customize their sys-
tem, section 3.2 Jumper Settings will provide detailed information on how to
configure your mainboard manually.
Step 3
Install Dual Channel DDR System Memory
To install memory, insert DDR-SDRAM memory module(s) in any one or two
DIMM banks. Note that SDRAM modules are directional and will not go in the
DIMM banks if they are not properly oriented. After the module is fully inserted
into the DIMM bank, lift the clips of both sides of the DIMM bank to lock the
module in place.

- 15 -
Step 4
Install Internal Peripherals in System Case
Before you install and connect the mainboard into your system case, we rec-
ommend that you first assemble all the internal peripheral devices into the com-
puter housing, including but not limited to the hard disk drive (IDE/HDD), floppy
disk drive (FDD), CD-ROM drive, and ATX power supply unit. This will greatly
facilitate in making the connections to the mainboard described below.
To install IDE & FDD drives, follow this procedure:
1. Set the required jumpers on each device according to the instructions pro-
vided by the manufacturer. (IDE devices, HDD, and CD-ROM, have to set
jumpers to Master or Slave mode depending on whether you install more
than one device of each kind.)
2. Connect IDE cable and FDD cable on the back-panel of the internal periph-
eral devices to the corresponding headers on board. Note that the cable
should be oriented with its colored stripe (usually red or magenta) connected
to pin#1 both on the mainboard IDE or FDD connector and on the device as
well.
3. Connect an available power cable from your system power supply unit to
the back-panel of each peripheral device. Note that the power cable is
directional and cannot fit in if not properly positioned.

- 16 -
Step 5
Mount the Mainboard on the Computer Chassis
1. You may find that there are a lot of different mounting hole positions
both on your computer chassis and on the mainboard. To choose correct
mounting holes, the key point is to keep the back-panel of the mainboard
in a close fit with your system case, as shown below.
2. After deciding on the proper mounting holes, position the studs between
the frame of the chassis and the mainboard. The studs are used to fix the
mainboard and to keep a certain distance between the system chassis and
the mainboard, in order to avoid any electrical shorts between the board
and the metal frame of the chassis. (If your computer case is already equipped
with mounting studs, you will need to tighten screws to attach the mainboard.)
Note: In most computer housings, you will be able to find 4 or more
attachment points to install mounting studs and then fix the
mainboard. If there aren't enough matching holes, then make
sure to install at least 4 mounting studs to ensure proper attach-
ment of the mainboard.
