Section 6. Installation and Setup

In this section, you will learn how to install the CPU, DDR
Module, and also how to set up jumpers and all the information
about the components on the motherboard. Not only can you find
the installation steps, but also the details and locations of the
components on the motherboard.

1. CPU Installation1. CPU Installation

1. CPU Installation

1. CPU Installation1. CPU Installation

The motherboard supports the Intel Pentium® Socket-478 processor. 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: Pull the lever sideways away from the socket and then raise the

lever up to a 90-degree angle.

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: Hold the CPU down firmly, and then close the lever.
Step4: Put the CPU fan on the CPU and buckle it. Connect the CPU fan

power cable to the JCFAN1. This completes the installation.

(1) Floppy Disk Connector: FDD1

The motherboard provides a standard floppy disk connector that supports

360K, 720K, 1.2M, 1.44M and 2.88M floppy disk types. This connector

supports the provided floppy drive ribbon cables.

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.

(3) Peripheral Component Interconnect Slots: PCI1-3

This motherboard is equipped with 3 standard PCI slots. PCI stands for
Peripheral Component Interconnect, and it is a bus standard for expansion
cards. This PCI slot is designed as 32 bits.

(4) Accelerated Graphics Port Slot: AGP1

Your monitor will attach directly to that video card. This motherboard supports
video cards for PCI slots, but it is also equipped with an Accelerated Graphics
Port (AGP). An AGP card will take advantage of AGP technology to improve
video efficiency and performance, especially with 3D graphics.

(5) Communication Network Riser Slot: CNR1 (optional)

The CNR specification is an open Industry Standard Architecture, and it defines
a hardware scalable riser card interface, which supports modem only.

(6) Clear CMOS Jumper: JCMOS1

This jumper helps you to clear the Real Time Clock (R TC) Ram in CMOS. You
can erase the CMOS RTC Ram data to clear the CMOS memory of date, time,
and system setup parameters.

JCMOS1 Assignment
Pin 1-2 Close Normal Operation (default)

Pin 2-3 Close Clear CMOS Data

* Clear CMOS Procedures:

1. Remove AC power line.

2. Set the jumper to "Pin 2-3 Close".

3. W ait for five seconds.

4. Set the jumper to "Pin 1-2 Close".

5. Power on the AC.

6. Reset your desired password or clear the CMOS data.

(7) Wake On LAN Header: JWOL1/JWOM1 ( optional)

This connector allows you to connect to a LAN card with Wake On LAN
function. Y ou can wake up the computer by remote control through a local area
network.

but it can be booted from CD-ROM drive.

System only boots from CD-ROM. Hard
disk can be read and applications can be
used but booting from hard disk is
impossible.

Configuration" or "CMOS Failure."

SOLUTION

* Make sure power cable is securely

plugged in.* Replace cable.

* Contact technical support.

* Using even pressure on both ends of

the DIMM, press down firmly until the
module snaps back in places.

* Check cable running from disk to disk

controller board. Make sure both ends
are securely plugged in; check the drive
type in the standard CMOS setup.

* Backing up the hard drive is extremely

important. All hard disks are capable
of breaking down at any time.

* Back up data and applications files.

Reformat the hard drive. Re-install

Introduction

[ W arpSpeederTM ], 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, [ W arpSpeeder

speed that is either the original system speed or a suitable one.

Duck running => overclock percentage from 110% ~ 120%

Duck burning => overclock percentage from 120% ~ above

3. Voltage Panel

Click the Voltage button in Main Panel, the button will be highlighted and the
Voltage Panel will slide out to up as the following figure.

In this panel, you can decide to increase CPU core voltage and Memory voltage
or not. The default setting is "No". If you want to get the best performance of
overclocking, we recommend you click the option "Yes".

will be saved into system registry. If the testing fail, system will do a fail-safe rebooting.
After reboot, the [ WarpSpeeder

Note: Because the overclock, overvoltage, and hardware monitor features are
controlled by several separate chipset, [ W arpSpeederTM ] divide these features to
separate panels. If one chipset is not on board, the correlative button in Main
panel will be disabled, but will not interfere other panels' functions. This property
can make [ WarpSpeeder
