The following diagrams show the relative positions of the jumpers, connectors, major
components and memory banks on the motherboard.
NOTE
1) Be sure to check the cable orientation in order to match the colored strip to
the pin 1 end of the connector.

Jumper Settings
This chapter explains how to configure the motherboard’s hardware. Before using your
computer, make sure all jumpers and DRAM modules are set correctly. Refer to this
chapter whenever in doubt.
CPU Speed Selection
In this motherboard, jumperless feature is implemented such that no jumper is required to
be set for different type of CPU installed.
Notice:
1. Be sure to save the CMOS setting when exit the CMOS.
2. The CPU is frequency multiplier locked, no CPU speed change will be seen
even if the frequency multiplier setting in CMOS setup is changed.

To Install DIMMs
1. Locate the DIMM sockets.
2. Holding the DIMM by the edges, remove it from its antistatic package.
3. Make sure the clips at either end of the socket are pushed away from the socket.
4. Position the DIMM above the socket. Align the two small notches in the bottom
edge of the DIMM with the keys in the socket.
5. Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the socket.
6. When the DIMM is seated, push down on the top edge of the DIMM until the retaining
clips at the ends of the socket snap into place. Make sure the clips are firmly in
place.
Turn system power off before installing and removing any
device, otherwise you’ll cause the system damage.

Hardware Setup
Installing a New Processor
An upgrade processor can dramatically increase general system speed and performance.
Most microprocessor upgrade kits include the following items:
• Microprocessor chip
• Installation instructions and technical data
Your system may have these features built in, or support them as upgrades.
To Install a Processor to ZIF Socket
To install the processor, follow these steps:
1. If the system microprocessor is already on the motherboard socket, you need to
remove it from the motherboard socket. The socket is a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)
socketwhichhas a metal arm at one side. Carefully graspthisarm,moveit horizontally
away from the socket and lift it up. Eventually you will be able to lift the chip straight
up out of the socket. Be careful not to bend any pins.
Be careful not to bend any of the pins when removing the microprocessor
chip from its socket. The microprocessor chip can be permanently damaged.
2. Unpack the new microprocessor chip.
3. Carefully align the processor with the correct orientation to the socket on the
motherboard.
4. Carefully insert the processor into the socket, and move the metal arm downward to
replace it in its original position.
Connect the Processor Fan Connector
There is a fan attached the processor to prevent the overheating. Connect the
processor fan cable to the fan connector that located on the motherboard near the
processor and ensure the fan can operate. Otherwise the CPU can overheat and
cause damage to both CPU and motherboard.
Setting the Processor Speed
After you install the processor into the motherboard, set the processor speed by CMOS
setup.

Technical Reference Booklet
BIO etup
This chapter discusses Award’s Setup Program built into the ROM BIOS. The Setup
Program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This special information
is then stored in battery-backed RAM, which retains the setup information when the
power is turned off.
Starting Setup
The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you turn on the computer. The BIOS
reads the system information contained in the CMOS and begins the process of checking
out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating
system on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating
system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup Program can be activated :
1. By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or
2. By pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears briefly at
the bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self Test )
Press DEL to enter SETUP
If the message disappears before you can respond and you still wish to enter Setup,
restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the “RESET” button
on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt>,
and <Delete> keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does
not reset, an error message will be displayed and you will again be asked to ...
PRESS F1 TO CONTINUE, DEL TO ENTER SETUP
Getting Help
Press F1 to pop up a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and
the possible selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window press <Esc> or
the F1 key again.
In Case of Problems
If, after making and saving system changes with the Setup Program, you discover that
your computer does not reset, use the Award BIOS defaults to override the CMOS
settings.
