Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you work on your computer.

1. Unplug your computer when working on the inside.

2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case.

3. Hold components by the edges and try not touch the IC chips, leads or connectors, or other components.

4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components whenever the components are separated from the system.

5. Ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off before you plug in or remove the ATX

ower connector on the motherboard.

If the motherboard has mounting holes, but they don't line up with the holes on the base and there are no

slots to attach the spacers, do not become alarmed you can still attach the spacers to the mounting holes. Just

cut the bottom portion of the spacers (the spacer may be a little hard to cut off, so be careful of your hands).

In this way you can still attach the motherboard to the base without worrying about short circuits. Sometimes

you may need to use the plastic springs to isolate the screw from the motherboard PCB surface, because

the circuit wire may be near by the hole. Be careful, don't let the screw contact any printed circuit write or

parts on the PCB that are near the fixing hole, otherwise it may damage the board or cause board

malfunctioning.

Step 1-2 : CPU Cooling Fan Installation

1.Please use Intel approved cooling fan.

2.We recommend you to apply the thermal tape to provide better heat conduction

between your CPU and cooling fan.

(The CPU cooling fan might stick to the CPU due to the hardening of the thermal

paste. During this condition if you try to remove the cooling fan, you might pull the

processor out of the CPU socket alone with the cooling fan, and might damage the

processor. To avoid this from happening, we suggest you to either use thermal tape

instead of thermal paste, or remove the cooling fan with extreme caution.)

3.Make sure the CPU fan power cable is plugged in to the CPU fan connector, this

completes the installation.

Please refer to CPU cooling fan user's manual for more detail installation procedure.

2. Make sure the CPU fan is plugged to

the CPU fan connector, than install

complete.

1. Fasten the cooling fan supporting-base

onto the CPU socket on the

mainboard.

Before installing the CPU cooling Fan , adhere to the following warning:

Hardware Installation Process

English

Established on the existing SDRAM industry infrastructure, DDR (Double Data Rate) memory is a high performance and cost-effective solution that allows easy adoption for memory vendors, OEMs and system integrators. DDR memory is a sensible evolutionary solution for the PC industry that builds on the existing SDRAM infrastructure, yet makes awesome advances in solving the system performance bottleneck by doubling the memory bandwidth. DDR SDRAM will offer a superior solution and migration path from existing SDRAM designs due to its availability, pricing and overall market support. PC2100 DDR memory (DDR266) doubles the data rate through reading and writing at both the rising and falling edge of the clock, achieving data bandwidth 2X greater than PC133 when running with the same DRAM clock frequency. With peak bandwidth of 2.664GB per second, DDR memory enables system OEMs to build high performance and low latency DRAM subsystems that are suitable for servers, workstations, high-end PC's and value desktop SMA systems. With a core voltage of only 2.5 Volts compared to conventional SDRAM's 3.3 volts, DDR memory is a compelling solution for small form factor desktops and notebook applications.

DDR Introduction

1. The DIMM slot has a notch, so the DIMM

memory module can only fit in one direction.

2. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into

the DIMM slot. Then push it down.

3. Close the plastic clip at both edges of the DIMM

slots to lock the DIMM module. Reverse the installation steps when you wish to remove the DIMM module.

Step 3: Install expansion cards

1. Read the related expansion card's instruction document before install the expansion card into the computer.

2. Remove your computer's chassis cover, necessary screws and slot bracket from the computer.

3. Press the expansion card firmly into expansion slot in motherboard.

4. Be sure the metal contacts on the card are indeed seated in the slot.

5. Replace the screw to secure the slot bracket of the expansion card.

6. Replace your computer's chassis cover.

7. Power on the computer, if necessary, setup BIOS utility of expansion card from BIOS.

8. Install related driver from the operating system.

When an AGP 2x (3.3V) card is installed the 2X_DET will light up, indicating a non-

supported graphics card is inserted. Informing users that system might not boot up normally

due to AGP 2x (3.3V) is not supported by the chipset.

AGP Card

Please carefully pull out the small white- drawable bar at the end of the AGP slot when you try to install/ Uninstall the AGP card. Please align the AGP card to the onboard AGP slot and press firmly down on the slot .Make sure your AGP card is locked by the small white- drawable bar.
