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 insta lling 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.

11

2.1 Installing the CPU

1. Before you insert the 1718-Pin CPU into the socket , please check if the PnP cap is on the
socket, if the CPU surface is unclean , or if there are any bent pins in the socket. Do not
force to in sert the CPU into the socket if above situation is found. Otherwise, the CPU
will be seriously damaged.

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

Carefully place the CPU in as at as

possible. Do not drop it.

Make sure the CPU is aligned with the

socket before locking it into place.

14

Make sure the black cover plate

is always in place until it pops o

when closing the socket lever.

Please save the cover if the processor is removed. e cover must be placed if you wish to
return the motherboard for aer service.

2.2 Installing the CPU Fan and Heatsink

Aer you install the CPU into this motherboard, it is necessary to install a larger

heatsink and cooling fan to dissipate heat. You also need to spray thermal grease

between the CPU and the heatsink to improve heat dissipation. Make sure that the

CPU and the heatsink are securely fastened and in good contact with each other.

Please turn o the power or remove the powe r cord before changing a CPU or heatsink.

2.3 Installing Memory Modules (DIMM)

is motherboard provides four 288-pin DDR5 (Double Data Rate 5) DIMM slots,

and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology.

1. For dual channel conguration, you always need to instal l identical (the same brand ,

speed , size and chip-type) DDR5 DIMM pairs.

2. It is unable to activate Dual Channel Memor y Technology with only one or three me mory

module installed.

3. It is not allowed to in stall a DDR, DDR2 , DDR3 or DDR4 memor y module into a DDR5

slot; otherw ise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged .

4. e DIMM only ts in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent damage to the

motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the sl ot at incorrec t orientation.

CLRCMOS1 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 CLRCMOS1 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.

ASRock BIOS Flashback feature al lows you to update BIOS wit hout powering on the system, even
without CPU.

Before u sing the BIOS Flashback function, please suspend BitLocke r and any encry ption
or security relying on the TPM. Make sure that you have already stored and backup-ed
the recovery key. If the recovery key is missing while e ncryption is active, the d ata will stay
encrypted and the system will not boot into the operating system. It is recommended to dis­able f TPM before updating the BIOS. Otherwise an unpre dictable failure may occur.

To use the USB BIOS Flashback func tion, Please fol low the steps below.

1. Download the latest BIOS le from ASRock 's website : http://www.asrock.com.

2. Copy t he BIOS le to your USB a sh drive. Please make sure the le system of

your USB ash drive must be FAT32.

3. Extract BIOS le from the zip  le.

4. Rename the le to “creative.rom” and save it to t he root directory of X: USB ash drive.

5. Plug the 24 pin power con nector to the mot herboard. en turn on the power supply's AC
switch.
*ere is no need to power on t he system.

6. en plug your USB drive to the USB BIOS Flashback por t.

7. Press the BIOS Flashback Switch for about three seconds. en the LED starts to blink.

8. Wait unti l the LED stops blinking, indicating that BIOS ashing has been completed.
*If the LED light turns solid green, this means that the BIOS Flashback is not
operating properly. Please ma ke sure that you plug t he USB drive to the USB BIOS Flashback
port.
**If the LED does not light up at a ll then please disconnect power from the system and remove/
disconnect t he CMOS battery from the motherboard for several minutes. Reconnect power
