CHAPTER 2: HARDWARE INST ALL ATION

2.1 CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT (CPU)

Step 1: Pul l the lever sideways away from the socket and then raise the

lever up to a 90-degree angl e.

Step 2: Look for the white dot/cut edge. T he white dot/cut edge shoul d

point wa rds th e lever pi vot. The CPU will fit onl y in t he c orrect
ori entati on.

Step 3: Hol d the CPU down firmly, and then close the lever to compl ete

the i nstalla ti on.

Step 4: Put th e CP U Fan on the CPU and bu c kl e it. Conn ec t t he CP U

FAN power cable to the JCFAN1. This completes the installation.

2.3 MEMORY MODULE INSTALLATION

1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining cl ips outward. Align a
DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the

break on the Sl ot.

2. Insert the DIMM vertically and fi rmly into the slot until the retaining
chip snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.

Note:

To assur e th e syste m safe ty, i f y ou n eed to cha n g e DDR m odul e s, fir stly,
please unplug the 20-pin power cable with the power conn ector, and

the n y ou can ch ang e the m odu le s. A fter war ds, plug i n the ca ble th e
power connect or ag ain, and finally you can boot up the system.

2.4 CONNECTO RS AND SLOTS

Floppy Disk Connector: FDD1

The motherboard provi des a standard fl oppy disk connector that
supports 360K, 720K, 1.2M, 1.44M and 2.88M floppy di sk types. This

connector supports the provided floppy dri ve ribbon cabl es.

Hard Disk Connectors: IDE1/IDE2

The motherboard has a 32-bi t Enhanced PCI IDE Control ler that
provides PIO Mode 0~5, Bus Master, and Ultra DMA 33/ 66/ 100

functio nalit y . It has two HDD c onn ectors IDE 1 (prima ry ) 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.

Peripheral Component Interconnect Slots: PCI 1~5

This motherboard is equi pped with 5 standard PCI slots. PCI stands for
Peripheral Com ponent Interconnect, and it i s a bus standard for

expansion cards. This PCI slot i s designated as 32 bits.

Accelerated Graphics Port Sl ot: AG P1

Your m onitor wi ll attach directly to that video card. Thi s motherboard
supports video cards for PCI slots, but i t i s also equipped with an

Accele rate d Graphics Port (AGP). An AGP ca rd will take advantage of
AGP technology for improved video efficiency and performance,

especially with 3D graphics.

CHAPTER 5: WAR PSPEEDER

5.1 INTRO DUCTION

[WarpSpeeder™], a new powerful control utility, features three user-fri endly
functions i ncluding Overclock Manager, Overvoltage Manager, and

Hardware Monitor.
With the Overclock M anager, users can easi l y 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 vol tage. The cool Hardware M onitor smartly indicates
the tem peratures, voltage and CPU fan speed as well as the chipset

information. Also, in the About panel , you can get detail descripti ons about
BIOS model and chipsets. In addition, the frequency status of CPU,

memory, AGP and PCI al ong with the CPU speed are synchronically shown
on our ma in panel.

Moreover, to protect users' com puter systems if the setting is not
appropriate when testing and resul ts in system fail or hang,

[WarpSpeeder™] technol ogy assures the sy stem stability by automati cally
rebooting the computer and then restart to a speed that i s ei ther the original

system speed or a suitable one.
