1.4. System Health Monitor Functions
The mainboard is capable of monitoring the following health conditions of your
system:
1. Processor temperature. It has an overheat alarm.
2. VCORE/3.3V/5V/12V/-12V voltages and failure alarm.
3. Processor and chassis fan speeds. It has a failure alarm for these fans.
4. Read back capability that display s te mperature, voltage and fan speed.
Note:
1.4.1. Hardware Monitoring System Utility
The mainboards both come with the Hardware Monitoring System utility
contained on the CD. It is capable of monitoring the system’s hardware
conditions such as the temperature of the proc essor , voltage, and the spe ed of
both the CPU and chassis fans. You are allowed to manually set a range to the
items being monitored. If the values are over or under the set range a warning
message will automatically pop up. We recommend that you use the Default
Settings, which are the ideal settings that will maintain the system in a good
working condition.
Only use this utility in Windows ® 95 or Windows ® 98 operating systems.

1.4.2. Installation
To install this utility, pleas e insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive. The auto run
screen (Driver Utility) w ill automatically appear. Click the Hard w are Mo nito ring
button, choose the chipset, mod e l number and the OS that is installe d . Ple a s e
refer to the CD “Readme” f ile for fur ther installation instructions.
1.5. System Intelligence
Dual Function Power Button
Depending on the setting in the Soft-Off By Power-Button field of the Power
Management Setup, this switch allows the system to enter the Soft-Off or
Suspend mode.
External Modem Ring-on (Optional)
The Modem Ring-on feature allows the system that is in the Suspen d mode or Soft Power
Off mode to wake-up/power-on to respond to incoming calls. This feature supports the
external modem only.
RTC Timer to Power-on the System
The RTC installed on the system board allows your system to automatically
power-on at a set date and time.
Wake-On-LAN Ready
The Wake-On-LAN function allows the network to remotely wake up a Soft
Power Down (Soft-Off) PC. Your LAN card must support the remote wakeup
function. The 5V SB power source of your power supply must be at least
720mA.
ACPI Ready
The mainboard is designed to meet the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and
Power Interface) specification. ACPI has energy saving features that support
OS Direct Power Management (OSPM) for ro und the clo ck PC oper ation.

2.4. CPU, Memory and Expansion Slots
2.4.1. Installation of the CPU
To install your processor, please complete the following set of instructions
1. Locate a small dot marked on the to p of the CPU. This mark indicate s
Pin 1 of the CPU.
2. Locate Pin 1 for the Socket on the mainboard.
3. There is a lever on the side of the socket. First push this lever sideways and then lift it to a 90-degree angle.
4. Insert the CPU into the Socket. Please make sure that Pin 1 for the
CPU is inserted into Pin 1 of the Socke t.
5. When the CPU is installed correctly push the lev er bac k into place .
6. Install a proper heat sink with cooling fan for prope r heat dissi-
pation. Failing to ins tall a heat sink with coo ling fan may cause overheating which will burnout your CPU and damage your mainboard.

2.4.2. Memory Modules
The P4M mainboards have two 184-pin DDR DIMM slots and are able to
support a maximum of 1GB of DDR200/266 memory. The DDR DIMM slots
are located on the right hand side of the board. To install the DIMM’s into
these slots, make sure the white lever at each side of the slot has been pulled
down to an angle of approximately 45°. Make sure that the DIMM is in the
correct orientatio n. Plac e the DI MM o n the s lo t and push down firmly.The white
levers will come back up and lock the module in place.
Important: The DIMM’s can only be fitted into the slots in one orientation. Make sure that the DIMM’s are in the correct orientation and
the pins are correctly ali gned before you insert them.
