ensure that all power cables are unplugged.
•
Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension
cord. These devices could interrupt the grounding circuit.
•
Make sure that your power supply is set to the correct voltage in your
area. If you are not sure about the voltage of the electrical outlet you
are using, contact your local power company.
•
If the power supply is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact
a qualified service technician or your retailer.

Take note of the following precautions before you install components into
the system.
•
Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
•
Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or
a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling
components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.
•
Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
•
Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded
antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.
•
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX
power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from
the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the
motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
Onb oa rd LE D
The motherboard comes with a standby power LED that lights up to
indicate that the system is ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode.
This is a reminder that you should shut down the system and unplug
the power cable before removing or plugging in any motherboard
component. The illustration below shows the location of the onboard
LED.

1.2 Motherboard overview
P5VDC-TVM
®
Before you install the motherboard, study the conguration of your chassis
to ensure that the motherboard ts into it.
Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the
motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage
motherboard components.
1.2 .1 Pla ce me nt di re cti on
When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the
chassis in the correct orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the
rear part of the chassis as indicated in the image below.
1.2 .2 Scr ew h ole s
Place eight (8) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the
motherboard to the chassis.
Do not overtighten the screws! Doing so can damage the motherboard.

1.3 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for
the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor in the 775-land package.
• Your boxed Intel® Pentium® 4 LGA775 processor package should
come with installation instructions for the CPU, heatsink, and the
retention mechanism. If the instructions in this section do not
match the CPU documentation, follow the latter.
• Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the PnP cap
is on the socket and the socket contacts are not bent. Contact
your retailer immediately if the PnP cap is missing, or if you
see any damage to the PnP cap/socket contacts/motherboard
components. ASUS will shoulder the cost of repair only if the
damage is shipment/transit-related.
• Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process
Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the
motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA775 socket.
• The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket
contacts resulting from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or
misplacement/loss/incorrect removal of the PnP cap.
1.3 .1 Ins ta ll ing t he CP U
To install a CPU:
1. Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard.
Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing
towards you and the load lever is on your left.

1.3 .2 Ins ta ll ing t he CP U he ats in k and f an
The Intel® Pentium® 4 LGA775 processor requires a specially designed
heatsink and fan assembly to ensure optimum thermal condition and
performance.
• Install the motherboard to the chassis before you install the CPU fan
and heatsink assembly.
• When you buy a boxed Intel® Pentium® 4 processor, the package
includes the CPU fan and heatsink assembly.
• Your Intel® Pentium® 4 LGA775 heatsink and fan assembly comes in
a push-pin design and requires no tool to install it.
• Make sure that you use Intel®-certied multi-directional heatsink and
fan only.
• Make sure that you have installed the motherboard to the chassis
before you install the CPU fan and heatsink assembly.
To install the CPU heatsink and fan:
1. Place the heatsink on top of the
installed CPU, and make sure
that the four fasteners match
the holes on the motherboard.
Orient the heatsink and fan
assembly such that the CPU
fan cable is closest to the
CPU fan connector.
