Chapter 2 Installation

is is a Micro ATX form factor motherboard. Before you install the motherboard,

study the conguration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard ts into it.

Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components

or change any motherboard settings.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard

•

components. Failure to do so may cause physical injuries and damages to motherboard

components.

In order to avoid damage from static electricity to the motherboard’s components,

•

NEVER place your motherboard directly on a carpet. Also remember to use a grounded

wrist strap or touch a safety grounded object before you handle the components.

Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.

•

Whenever you uninstall any components, place them on a grounded anti-static pad or

•

in the bag that comes with the components.

When placing screws to secure the motherboard to the chassis, please do not over-

•

tighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

2.1 Installing the CPU

1. Before you insert the 120 0-Pin CPU into the socket, please check if the PnP ca p
is on the socket, if the CPU sur face is unclean, or if th ere are any b ent pins in the
socket. Do not force to insert the CPU into the socket if above situ ation is found.
Other wise, the CPU wil l be seriously d amaged.

2. Unplug all power cables be fore installing the CPU.

2.3 Installing Memory Modules (DIMM)

is motherboard provides two 288-pin DDR4 (Double Data Rate 4) DIMM slots,

and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology.

1. For dual channel conguration, you always need to install identica l (the same

brand, speed , size and chip-type) DDR4 DIMM pairs.

2. It is unable to activate Dual Channel Memor y Technology with only one memory
module instal led.

3. It is not allowed to install a DDR, DDR2 or DDR3 memory module into a DDR4
slot; otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged.

e DIMM only ts in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent dam age to
the mothe rboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the slot at incor rect
orientation .

2.4 Expansion Slots (PCI Express Slots)

ere are 3 PCI Express slots on the motherboard.

Before installing an ex pansion card, please make sure that the power supply is
switched o or the power cord is unplugged. Plea se read the documentation of the
expan sion card and mak e necessary hardware settings for the card before you start
the installation.

PCIe slots:

PCIE1 (PCIe 3.0 x16 slot) is used for PCI Express x16 lane width graphics cards.

PCIE2 (PCIe 3.0 x1 slot) is used for PCI Express x1 lane width cards.

PCIE3 (PCIe 3.0 x1 slot) is used for PCI Express x1 lane width cards.

2.5 Jumpers Setup

e illustration shows how jumpers are setup. When the jumper cap is placed on

the pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap is placed on the pins, the jumper is

“Open”.

English

Clear CMOS Jumper

(CLRMOS1)

(see p.6, No. 21)

CLRMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. e data in CMOS includes

system setup information such as system password, date, time, and system setup

parameters. To clear and reset the system parameters to default setup, please turn

o the computer and unplug the power cord, then use a jumper cap to short the

pins on CLR MOS1 for 3 seconds. Please remember to remove the jumper cap aer

clearing the CMOS. If you need to clear the CMOS when you just nish updating

the BIOS, you must boot up the system rst, and then shut it down before you do

the clear-CMOS action.

If you clear the CMOS, the case open may be detec ted. Please adjust the BIOS option
“Clear Status” to clear the record of previou s chassis intrusion status.

2-pin Jumper

Short: Clear CMOS

Open: Default

2.6 Onboard Headers and Connectors

SPE AKE R

Onboard headers and connectors are NOT jumpers. Do NOT place jumper caps over
these header s and connectors. Placing jumper caps over the headers and connectors
will cause permanent damage to the motherboard.

B460M-HDV

System Panel Header

(9-pin PANEL1)

(see p.6, No. 12)

PWRBTN (Power Button):

Connec t to the power button on the chassi s front panel. You may congure the way
to turn o your system using the powe r button.

RESET (Reset Button):

Connec t to the reset button on the chassi s front panel. Press the reset button to
restar t the computer if the computer freezes and fails to perform a nor mal restart.

PLED (Syste m Power LED):

Connec t to the power status indicator on the chassis front panel. e LED i s on when
the system is ope rating. e LED keeps blinking when the system i s in S1/S3 sleep
state. e LED is o when the system is in S4 sleep state or powered o (S5).

HDLED (Ha rd Drive Activity LED):

Connec t to the hard drive ac tivity LED on the chassis front panel. e LED is on
when the hard drive i s reading or writing data.

e front panel de sign may dier by chassis. A front pane l module mainly consists
of power button , reset button, power LED, hard dr ive activity LED, speaker and etc.
When connecting your chassis front panel module to this head er, make sure the wire
assig nments and the pin assig nments are matched correctly.
