Chapter 2 Installation

is is a Mini-ITX 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.
•
Failure to do so may cause physical injuries to you 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 Memory Modules (SO-DIMM)

is motherboard provides two 204-pin DDR3/DDR3L (Double Data Rate 3) SO-
DIMM slots. If only one SO-DIMM module is installed, please install it into DDR3_
A1.
It is not allowed to install a DDR or DDR2 memory module into a DDR3/DDR3L slot; otherwise, this motherboard and SO-DIMM may be d amaged.
e SO-DIMM only ts in one cor rect orientation. It w ill cau se permanent damage to the motherboard and the SO -DIMM if you force the SO-DIM M into the slot at incorrect orientation.

2.2 Expansion Slots (PCI Express Slots)

ere is 1 PCI Express slot and 1 mini-PCI Express slot 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 slot:
PCIE1 (PCIe 2.0 x1 slot) is used for PCI Express cards with x1 lane width cards.
mini-PCIe slot:
MINI_PCIE1 (mini-PCIe slot) is used for WiFi module.

2.3 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”. e illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1 and pin2 are “Short”
when a jumper cap is placed on these 2 pins.
Clear CMOS Jumper
(CLRMOS1)
(see p.5, No. 12)
CLRMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. To clear and reset the system
parameters to default setup, please turn o the computer and unplug the power
cord from the power supply. Aer waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper cap to
short pin2 and pin3 on CLRMOS1 for 5 seconds. However, please do not clear the
CMOS right aer you update the BIOS. 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. Please be noted that the password,
date, time, and user default prole will be cleared only if the CMOS battery is
removed.

3.3 Enabling USB Ports for Windows® 7 Installation
Intel® Braswell and Skylake has removed their support for the Enhanced Host
Controller Interface (EHCI – USB2.0) and only kept the eXtensible Host Controller
Interface (XHCI – USB3.0). Due to that fact that XHCI is not included in the
Windows 7 inbox drivers, users may nd it dicult to install Windows 7 operating
system because the USB ports on their motherboard won’t work. In order for the
USB ports to function properly, please create a Windows® 7 installation disk with
the Intel® USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller (xHCI) drivers packed into the ISO
le.
Requirements
A Windows® 7 installation disk or USB drive
•
USB 3.0 drivers (included in the ASRock Support CD or website)
•
A Windows® PC
•
Win7 USB Patcher (included in the ASRock Support CD or website)
•
Scenarios
You have an ODD and PS/2 ports:
If there is an optical disc drive, PS/2 ports and PS/2 Keyboard or mouse on your computer,
you can skip the instructions below and go ahead to install Windows® 7 OS.
You only have an ODD (For Intel Skylake platforms only):
If there is an optical disc drive but no PS/2 ports on your computer, please enable the “PS/2
Simulator” option in UEFI SETUP UTILITY > Advanced > USB Conguration, which
allows the USB port to function as a PS/2 port, and then you can install the Windows® 7
OS. Please set PS/S Simulator back to disabled aer the installation.
You’ve got nothing:
If you do not have an optical disc drive, please nd another computer and follow the
instructions below to create a new ISO le with the “Win7 USB Patcher”. en use the new
patched Windows® 7 installation USB drive to install Windows® 7 OS.
