ESD Precautions
Computer boards have integrated circuits sensitive to static electricity. To prevent chipsets from electrostatic discharge damage, please take care of the following jobs with precautions:
Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static packaging until you are
ready to install them.
Before holding the board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system
unit chassis for a few seconds. It discharges static electricity from your body.
Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component stores, when
handling boards and components.

Hardware Installation 21
Chapter 3
Hardware Installation
Before installing the processor, please access Intel® website for more detail information of Processor Integration Video (LGA1155):
http://www.intel.com/support/tw/processors/sb/CS-030860.htm .
3.1 Installing the Processor
The LGA1155 processor socket comes with a cover to protect the processor. Please install the processor into the CPU socket step by step as below:
Step1 Opening the socket:
Disengage load lever by releasing down and out on the hook. This will clear retention tab. Rotate load lever to open position at approximately 135°. Rotate load plate to open position at approximately 150°.
Note: Apply pressure to corner with right-hand thumb when opening or closing load lever -
otherwise lever will bounce back (as a mouse trap) causing bent contacts.
Step2 Removing the socket protective cover:
Place thumb against the front edge of the protective cover and rest index finger on the rear
grip to maintain control of the cover.
Lift the front edge of the protective cover to disengage from the socket. Keep control of the
cover by holding the rear grip with index finger.
Lift protective cover away from the socket, being careful not to touch the electrical
contacts.
MANO873 Series All-In-One Mini ITX Board
22 Hardware Installation
Note: Vertical removal is NOT recommended, as it requires higher force and can lead to
socket contact damage.
Caution: Never touch fragile socket contacts to avoid damage and do not touch
processor sensitive contacts at any time during installation.
Step3 Processor installation:
Lift processor package from shipping media by grasping the substrate edges.
Scan the processor package gold pads for any presence of foreign material. If necessary,
the gold pads can be wiped clean with a soft lint-free cloth and isopropyl alcohol.
Locate connection 1 indicator on the processor which aligns with connection 1 indicator
chamfer on the socket, and notice processor keying features that line up with posts along socket walls.
MANO873 Series All-In-One Mini ITX Board
Hardware Installation 23
Grasp the processor with thumb and index finger along the top and bottom edges. (Do not
touch the orientation notches.) The socket will have cutouts for your fingers to fit into (see image below).
Carefully place the processor into the socket body vertically (see image below).
Note: Tilting or roughly shifting it into place can damage socket contacts.
Caution: Do not use a vacuum pen for installation.
MANO873 Series All-In-One Mini ITX Board
24 Hardware Installation
Verify that package is within the socket body and properly connected to orientation keys.
Close the socket (see image below):
1. Gently lower the load plate.
2. Make sure load plate's front edge slides under the shoulder screw cap as the lever is lowered.
3. Latch the lever under the top plate's corner tab, being cautious not to damage the motherboard with the tip of the lever.
Step4 Fan heatsink handling:
1. Orientate the CPU cooling fan to fixing holes on the board.
MANO873 Series All-In-One Mini ITX Board
Hardware Installation 25
2. Screw the CPU cooling fan onto the board.
3. Make sure the CPU fan is plugged to the CPU fan connector.
Step5 Removing the processor:
Open the socket:
1. Disengage the load lever.
2. Open the load plate
Remove the Processor package, holding along the top and bottom edges, or by using a
vacuum pen.
Maintain Processor horizontal and remove Processor with a vertical motion to avoid
damaging the socket contacts.
Place the processor in a specially designed tray or ESD retainer for storage. Do not place
directly on table resting on gold lands
MANO873 Series All-In-One Mini ITX Board
26 Hardware Installation
Assemble LGA1155 socket protective cover:
1. Hold protective cover at 45 degree angle to the LGA1155 Socket.
2. Carefully lower protective cover on hinge side first, to contact with the outside wall of
the LGA1155 Socket:
3. Engage protective cover retention features to outside of LGA1155 Socket, AND align 2
cover corners to socket corners (This step is critical to avoid Bent Contact Damage!).
4. Lower protective cover to attach to the LGA1155 Socket on Shoulder screw side.
Perform Visual and Tactile verification that protective cover is properly seated in the
LGA1155 Socket: Hold cover and move gently side by side to feel the play within the cover and the
LGA1155 Socket.
Close the socket load plate and engage the load lever (see image below).

3.2 Installing the Memory
The board supports two 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM memory sockets with maximum memory capacity up to 16GB.
Note: A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR2 SO-DIMM but is
notched differently to prevent installation on a DDR2 SO-DIMM socket.
Please follow steps below to install the memory modules:
Push down latches on each side of the SO-DIMM socket. Align the memory module with the socket that notches of memory module must match the
socket keys for a correct installation.
Install the memory module into the socket and push it firmly down until it is fully seated.
The socket latches are levered upwards and clipped on to the edges of the SO-DIMM.
Install any remaining SO-DIMM modules.

AMI BIOS Setup Utility
The AMI UEFI BIOS provides users with a built-in setup program to modify basic system configuration. All configured parameters are stored in a flash chip to save the setup information whenever the power is turned off. This chapter provides users with detailed description about how to set up basic system configuration through the AMI BIOS setup utility.
5.1 Starting
To enter the setup screens, follow the steps below:
1. Turn on the computer and press the <Del> key immediately.
2. After you press the <Del> key, the main BIOS setup menu displays. You can access the other setup screens from the main BIOS setup menu, such as the Advanced and Chipset menus.
Note: If your computer can not boot after making and saving system changes with Setup,
you can restore BIOS optimal defaults by setting JP1 (see section 2.3.1) .
It is strongly recommended that you should avoid changing the chipsets defaults. Both AMI and your system manufacturer have carefully set up these defaults that provide the best performance and reliability.
5.2 Navigation Keys
The BIOS setup/utility uses a key-based navigation system called hot keys. Most of the BIOS setup utility hot keys can be used at any time during the setup navigation process. These keys include <F1>, <F2>, <Enter>, <ESC>, <Arrow> keys, and so on.
Note: Some of the navigation keys differ from one screen to another.

Before you begin the SATA configuration, please prepare:
Two SATA hard drives (to ensure optimal performance, it is recommended that you use
two hard drives with identical model and capacity). If you do not want to create RAID with the SATA controller, you may prepare only one hard drive.
An empty formatted floppy disk. Windows XP setup disk.
Please follow up the steps below to configure SATA hard drive(s):

To install the operating system onto a serial ATA hard disk successfully, you need to install the SATA controller driver during the OS installation. Without the driver, the hard disk may not be recognized during the Windows setup process. First of all, please format a blank floppy disk. Secondly, follow up these steps below to produce a SATA driver disk.
Users can insert the driver DVD and the formatted blank floppy disk in another system. And then, please copy all of file of the f6flpy-x32 folder in the driver DVD to a floppy disk.
Note: Please copy all of file of the f6flpy-x64 folder, if installing 64-bit Windows
Operating System.
5. Installing the SATA controller driver during the OS installation
Now, the SATA driver disk is ready, and BIOS settings configured, you can proceed to install Windows 2000/XP onto your SATA hard drive using the SATA driver. Here is an example for Windows XP installation.
