2.1INSTALLING CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT (CPU)
PU |
Step 1: Pull the lever sideways away from the socket and then raise the lever up to a 90-degree angle.
Step 2: Look for the white dot/cut edge. The white dot/cut edge should point wards the lever pivot. The CPU will fit only in the correct orientation.
Step 3: Hold the CPU down firmly, and then close the lever to complete the installation.
Step 4: Put the CPU Fan on the CPU and buckle it. Connect the CPU FAN power cable to the JCFAN1. This completes the installation.

4.2EXTRA INFORMATION
A. BIOS Update
After you fail to update BIOS or BIOS is invaded by virus, the Boot-Block function will help to restore BIOS. If the following message is shown after boot-up the system, it means the BIOS contents are corrupted.
In this Case, please follow the procedure below to restore the BIOS:
1.Make a bootable floppy disk.
2.Download the Flash Utility “AWDFLASH.exe” from the Biostar website: www.biostar.com.tw
3.Confirm motherboard model and download the respectively BIOS from Biostar website.
4.Copy “AWDFLASH.exe” and respectively BIOS into floppy disk.
5.Insert the bootable disk into floppy drive and press Enter.
6.System will boo-up to DOS prompt.
7.Type “Awdflash xxxx.bf/sn/py/r” in DOS prompt.
8.System will update BIOS automatically and restart.
9.The BIOS has been recovered and will work properly.

P4M80-M4
B. CPU Overheated
If the system shutdown automatically after power on system for seconds, that means the CPU protection function has been activated.
When the CPU is over heated, the motherboard will shutdown automatically to avoid a damage of the CPU, and the system may not power on again.
In this case, please double check:
1.The CPU cooler surface is placed evenly with the CPU surface.
2.CPU fan is rotated normally.
3.CPU fan speed is fulfilling with the CPU speed.
After confirmed, please follow steps below to relief the CPU protection function.
1.Remove the power cord from power supply for seconds.
2.Wait for seconds.
3.Plug in the power cord and boot up the system.
Or you can:
1.Clear the CMOS data.
