Special BIOS Functions

Appendix

Warning:

1. Attach the CPU and heatsink using silica gel to ensure full contact.

2. It is suggested to select high-quality, certified fans in order to avoid
damage to the motherboard and CPU due high temperatures.

3. Never turn on the machine if the CPU fan is not properly installed.

4. Ensure that the DC power supply is turned off before inserting or
removing expansion cards or other peripherals, especially when
you insert or remove a memory module. Failure to switch off the DC
power supply may result in serious damage to your system or

memory module.

Warning:

We cannot guarantee that your system will operate normally while
over-clocked. Normal operation depends on the over-clock capacity
of your device.

Attention:

Since BIOS programs are upgraded from time to time, the BIOS
description in this manual is just for reference. We do not guarantee
that the content of this manual will remain consistent with the actual
BIOS version at any given time in the future.

Attention:

The pictures of objects used in this manual are just for your reference.

Notes:

Take note of the following precautions before you install components or
change settings.

1. Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object,
such as an attached power supply, before handling components
to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.

2. Unplug the power cord before opening your chassis or touching
any component.

3. Hold components by their edges to avoid touching any exposed
integrated circuits (ICs).

4. Whenever you uninstall a component, place it on a grounded
antistatic pad or into the antistatic bag that it came in.

Installation of CPU Fan

New technology allows processors to run at higher and higher frequencies. To
avoid problems arising from high-speed operation, for example, overheating, you
need to install the proper fan. The following procedures are provided for refer­ence only, please refer your CPU fan user guide to install it.

1. Locate the CPU retention mecha­nism base (surrounds the CPU
socket).

3. Attach the fan to the base.

2. If required, apply a light coating
of silica gel to the top of the CPU.

NOTE: The CPU heatsink may have a
pre-applied thermal compound. In that
case, the silica gel is not required.

4. Connect the power fan’s power

cable to the appropriate 3-pin

connector on the motherboard.

12

Note :

Excessive temperatures will severely damage the CPU and
system. Therefore, make sure that the cooling fan works normally at
all times in order to prevent overheating and damaging to the CPU.

865M06 Series User Manual

Chapter 2 Installation Instructions

Attention:

1.Position the fan with the retention mechanism on top of the
heat sink. Align and snap the four hooks of the retention
mechanism to the holes on each corner of the module base.

2.Make sure that the fan and retention mechanism assembly
perfectly fits the heatsink and module base, otherwise you
cannot snap the hooks into the holes.

Starting up for the first time

1. After making all the connections, replace the system case cover.

2. Be sure that all switches are off.

3. Turn on the devices in the following order.

a. Monitor
b. External SCSI devices (starting with the last device on the chain)
c. System power

4. After applying power LED on the system front panel case lights up. For ATX

power supplies, the system LED lights up when you press the ATX power
switch. If your monitor complies with green standards or if it has a power
standby feature, the monitor LED may light up or switch between orange

and green after the system LED turns on. The system then runs the power-

on tests. While the tests are running, the BIOS beeps or additional

messages appear on the screen. If you do not see anything within 30

seconds from the time you turned on the power, the system may have failed

a power-on test. Check the jumper settings and connections or call your

retailer for assistance.

5. At power on, hold down <Delete> to enter BIOS Setup. Follow the instructions

in Chapter 3.

Powering off the computer

1. Using the OS shut down function
If you use windows 98/ME/2000/XP, click the start button, click Shut Down, then
click the OK button to shut down the computer. The power supply should turn off
after Windows shuts down.

2.Using the dual function power switch
While the system is ON, pressing the power switch for less than 4 seconds puts
the system to sleep mode or to soft-off mode, depending on the BIOS setting.
Pressing the power switch for more than 4 seconds lets the system enter the soft­off mode regardless of the BIOS setting.
