2.3Central Processing Unit (CPU)

2.3.1 Overview

The motherboard comes with a surface mount 478-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket designed for the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor. Take note of the marked corner (with

gold triangle) on the CPU. This mark should match a specific corner on the socket to ensure correct installation.

Notes on Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology

1. This motherboard supports Intel Pentium 4 CPUs with HyperThreading Technology.

2.Hyper-Threading Technology is supported under Windows XP and Linux 2.4.x (kernel) and later versions only. Under Linux, use the Hyper-Threading compliler to compile the code. If you are using any other operating systems, disable the Hyper-Threading Techonology item in BIOS to ensure system stability and performance.

3.It is recommended that you install WinXP Service Pack 1.

4.Make sure to enable the Hyper-Threading Technology item in BIOS before installing a supported operating system.

5.For more information on Hyper-Threading Technology, visit www.intel.com/info/hyperthreading.

To use the Hyper-Threading Technology on this motherboard:

1.Buy an Intel Pentium 4 CPU that supports Hyper-Threading Technology. Install the CPU.

2.Power up the system and enter BIOS Setup (see Chapter 4). Under the Boot Menu, make sure that the item Hyper-Threading Technology is set to Enabled. The item appears only if you installed a CPU that supports Hyper-Threading Technology.

3.Reboot the computer.

3. Position the CPU above the
socket such that its marked	Gold Mark
corner matches the base of the
socket lever.

4.Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place.

The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU into the socket to prevent bending the pins and damaging the CPU!

5.When the CPU is in place, push down the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab to indicate that it is locked.
