CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION

1-1

The MS-6178 MICRO ATX WH5 mainboard is a high-performance computer mainboard based on Intel

®

810 chipset. The MS-6178 is designed for the

Intel

®

CeleronTM (PPGA) processor for inexpensive business/personal

desktop markets.

The Intel

®

810 chipset is the first generation Integrated Graphics chipset for

the Intel

®

CeleronTM processor. The graphics accelerator architecture consists of dedicated multi-media engines executing in parallel to deliver high performance 3D, 2D, and motion compensation video capabilities. An integrated centralized memory arbiter allocates memory bandwidth to multiple system agents to optimize system memory utilization. A new chipset component interconnect, the hub interface, is designed into the Intel 810 chipset to provide an efficient communication channel between the memory controller hub and I/O hub controller.

The Intel

®

810 chipset contains three core components: the Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH), the I/O Controller Hub (ICH0) and the Firmware Hub (FWH). The GMCH integrates a 66/100MHz, P6 family system bus controller, integrates 2D/3D graphics accelerator, 100MHz SDRAM controller and high-speed hub interface for communication with the ICH0/ICH. The ICH0 integrates an Ultra ATA/33(ICH0),USB host controller,

LPC interface controller, FWHinterface controller, PCI interface controller,

AC’97 digital controller and a hub interface for communication with the GMCH.

The Intel

®

82802 Firmware Hub (FWH) component is part of the Intel® 810 chipset. The FWH is key to enabling future security and manageability infrastructure for the PC platform.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION

2.1 Central Processing Unit: CPU

The mainboard operates with Intel® CeleronTM processor. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called Socket 370 for easy CPU installation. The CPU should always have a Heat Sink and a cooling fan attached to prevent overheating.

3. Press the lever down to complete the installation.

2 . Locate Pin 1 in the socket

and look for the white dot or cut edge in the CPU. Match Pin 1 with the white dot/cut edge. Then, insert the CPU. It should insert easily .

The mainboard CPU Bus Frequency can be set through BIOS setup

If CPU Clock = 66MHz

Core/Bus ratio = 3. 5

then CPU core speed = Host Clock x Core/Bus ratio

= 66MHz x 3.5 = 233MHz

2.1-4 Fan Power Connector: CPUFAN

This connector support system cooling fan with + 12V. It supports three pin head connector. When connecting the wire to the connector, always take note that the red wire is the positive and should be connected to the +12V, the black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If your mainboard has System Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of this function.

For fans with fan speed sensor, every rotation of the fan will send out 2 pulses. System Hardware Monitor will count and report the fan rotation speed.

Note: 1. Always consult vendor for proper CPU cooling fan.

2. CPU FAN supports the FAN control. You can install PC Alert

utility . This will automatically control the CPU F AN Speed according to the actual CPU temperature.

When the 2-pin LED is connected to JGL1, the light will turn green, when system is On. During sleep mode, the 2-pin LED will change color from Green to Orange. For 3-pin LED, when LED is connected to JGL1, this will light when the system is On and blinks when it is in suspend/sleep mode. See page 3-19 (Power status LED) for further instruction.

SDRAM RAS-to-CAS Delay

This field lets you insert a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe signals, used when DRAM is written to, read from, or refreshed. Fast gives faster performance; and Slow gives more stable performance. This field applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. The settings are: 2 and 3.

SDRAM RAS Precharge Time

If an insufficient number of cycles is allowed for the RAS to accumulate its charge before DRAM refresh, the refresh may be incomplete and the DRAM may fail to retain data. Fast gives faster performance; and Slow gives more stable performance. This field applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. The settings are: 2 and 3.

1. Suspend Mode 2 . HDD Power Down

There are three selections for Power Management, two of which have fixed mode settings. Min. Power Saving Minimum power management. Suspend Mode = 1

hr., and HDD Power Down = 15 min.

Max. Power Saving Maximum power management — Suspend

Mode = 1 min., and HDD Power Down = 1 min.

User Defined (default) Allows you to set each mode individually.

When not disabled, each of the ranges are from 1 min. to 1 hr. except for HDD Power Down which ranges from 1 min. to 15 min. and disable.
