NSTALLING CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT (CPU)
Special Notice:
Remo v e Pin Cap before installa tion, and m ake goo d preservation
for future use. When the CPU is remo ved, cov er the Pin Cap on the
empty so cket to ensure pin legs won’ t be da mag ed.
Pin-Cap
Step 1: Pull the socket locking lever out from the socket and then raise
the lever up to a 90-degree angle.

Motherboard Manual
Step 2: Look for the triangular cut edge on socket, and the golden dot on
CPU should point forwards this triangular cut edge. The CPU will
fit only in the correct orientation.
Step 2-1:
Step 2-2:
Step 3: Hold the CPU down firmly, and then lower the lever to locked
position to complete the installation.
Step 4: Put the CPU Fan and heatsink assembly on the CPU and buckle it
on the retention frame. Connect the CPU FAN power cable into
the JCFAN1. This completes the installation.

4.4 TROUBLESHOOTING
1. No power to the system at all
Probable Solution
Power light don’t illuminate, f an
inside power supply does not turn
on.
2. Indicator light on key board does
not turn on.
System inoperativ e. Keyboard lights
are on, power indicator lights are lit,
and hard driv e is spinning.
System does not boot from hard disk
driv e, can be booted f rom optical driv e.
System only boots f rom optical driv e.
Hard disk can be read and applic ations
can be used but booting from hard disk
is impossible.
Screen message says “Invalid
Configuration” or “CMOS Failure. ”
Cannot boot system after installing
second hard driv e.
1. Make sure power cable is
securely plugged in.
2. Replace cable.
3. Contact technical support.
Using even pressure on bot h ends of
the DIMM, press down firmly until the
module snaps into place.
1. Check cable running from disk to
disk controller board. Make sure
both ends are securely plugged
in; c hec k t h e d riv e ty p e i n t he
standard CMOS setup.
2. Backing up the hard driv e is
extremely important. All hard
disks are capable of breaking
down at any tim e.
1. Back up data and applic ations
files.
2. Ref ormat the hard driv e.
Re-install applications and data
using backup disks.
Review sy stem’s equipment. Make sur

CHAPTER 5: WARPSPEEDER™
5.1 INTRODUCTION
[WarpSpeeder™], a new powerful control utility, features three
user-friendly functions including Overclock Manager, Overvoltage
Manager, and Hardware Monitor.
With the Overclock Manager, users can easily adjust the frequency they
prefer or they can get the best CPU performance with just one click. The
Overvoltage Manager, on the other hand, helps to power up CPU core
voltage and Memory voltage. The cool Hardware Monitor smartly indicates
the temperatures, voltage and CPU fan speed as well as the chipset
information. Also, in the About panel, you can get detail descriptions about
BIOS model and chipsets. In addition, the frequency status of CPU,
memory, AGP and PCI along with the CPU speed are synchronically
shown on our main panel.
Moreover, to protect users' computer systems if the setting is not
appropriate when testing and results in system fail or hang,
[WarpSpeeder™] technology assures the sy stem stability by automatically
rebooting the computer and then restart to a speed that is either the
original system speed or a suitable one.
5.2 SYS TEM REQUIREMENT
OS Support: Windows 98 SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP
DirectX: DirectX 8.1 or above. (The Windows XP operating system
