1. CPU Installation
The motherboard supports Intel Pentium 4 processor in the 478 pin package. The motherboard uses
a CPU socket called PGA478 for easy CPU installation. When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooling fan attached on the right to prevent overheating. If you do not find the cooling fan, contact your dealer and make sure to install them before turning on the computer.
Step1:Step1:
Step1:Step1:
Step1: Pull the lever sideways away from the socket and then raise the lever up to a 90-
degree angle.
Step2:Step2:
Step2:Step2:
Step2: Look for the white dot/cut edge. The white dot/cut edge should point towards the
lever pivot. The CPU will fit only in the correct orientation.
Step3:Step3:
Step3:Step3:
Step3: Hold the CPU down firmly, and then close the lever. Step4: Step4:
Step4: Step4:
Step4: Put the CPU fan on the CPU and buckle it. Connect the CPU fan power cable to the
JCFAN1. This completes the installation.
2 Central Processing Unit: CPU
These fan headers support cooling fans built in the computer. Orient the fans to make the heat sink
fins to allow air flow to go across the onboard heat sinks instead of the expansion slots. The fan wiring and plug may be different according to the fan manufacturer. Connect the fan fable to the connector while matching the black wire to the ground pin.

3. Installing DDR Module
1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward. Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the break on the slot.
2. Insert the DIMM firmly and vertically into the slot until the retaining chip snap back in place and the Dimm is properly seated.
4. How to set up Jumpers?
The illustration shows how to set up jumpers. When the Jumper cap is placed on pins, the jumper is “close”. If no jumper cap is placed on the pins, the jumper is ”open”. The illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1and 2 are “close” when jumper cap is placed on these 2 pins.

The motherboard has a 32-bit Enhanced PCI IDE Controller that provides PIO Mode 0~4, Bus
Master, and Ultra DMA 33/ 66/ 100/ 133 functionality. It has two HDD connectors IDE1 (primary)
and IDE2 (secondary).
The IDE connectors can connect a master and a slave drive, so you can connect up to four hard disk
drives. The first hard drive should always be connected to IDE1.

Connecting USB Devices
Your computer is equipped with four standard USB 2.0 ports as the figure 3.5 shown. The USB 2.0 connector is backward compatible with the USB1.1. You can obtain USB-compatible devices such as USB mouse, USB keyboard, digital camera, scanner, flash disk...etc. Any device that supports this standard can be connected to this port.
* Have the symbol of USB connector facing up. * Insert the connector to the USB port. * The OS will automatically detect the device and install the driver for the device. * If the operating system does not have the driver for your device, install the driver from the driver CD
that is provided by the device manufacturer.

Connecting IEEE1394 Devices
Your computer is equipped with two IEEE1394 connectors as the figure 3.6 shown, which enhance the connectivity of the computer and allow users to connect more electronics devices such as desktop digital cameras, digital VCRs, high resolution color printers, scanners, set-top boxes, and more. The IEEE 1394 devices also support "hot plugging," eliminating the need to power down or restart the computer when attaching a new peripheral like USB devices.
* Match the shape of the IEEE 1394 connector to the IEEE 1394 port. * Insert the connector, and make sure that it is connected. * The OS will start running and automatically install the driver for the device. * If the OS does not have the driver for your device, install the driver from the driver CD that is provided
by the device manufacturer.

* A problem behaves erratically or refuses to accept user input:
* Wait a while. The problem might be busy processing data or waiting for some event, such as network
activity.
* If possible, use the task bar to switch to other problems, save any documents that might be open, and
close other programs. Then attempt to close the program that is misbehaving.
* If a problem does not close, press the Ctrl + Alt + Del keys together only once. The computer will
give you the option of ending the task or waiting longer. If you press Ctrl + Alt + Del a second time,
the computer restarts if it can.
* As a last resort, if the computer totally ignores the mouse, keyboard and power button, you can
unplug the power cable; wait a moment; and then plug the power cable back in. This forces the
computer to restart.
* If the problem persists, contact your computer dealer for technical support and service.
