Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit
(IC) chips. T o 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 A TX power supply is switched off before you plug in or remove the A TX power
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.

Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor's specifications.
We don't recommend you to set the system bus frequency over the CPU's specification because
these specific bus frequencies are not the standard specifications for CPU, chipset and most of the
peripherals. Whether your system can run under these specific bus frequencies properly will
depend on your hardware configurations, including CPU, Chipsets, Memory, Cards...etc.

Step 1: Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Step 1-1: CPU Installation
Angling the
rod to 65
0
1. Angling the rod to 65-degree maybe
feel a kind of tight , and then continue
pull the rod to 90-degree when a noise
"cough" made.
2. Pull the rod to the 90-degree directly .

4. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and
look for a (golden) cut edge on the
CPU upper corner. Then insert
the CPU into the socket.

Before installing the processor, adhere to the following warning:
1.Please make sure the CPU type is supported by the motherboard.
2.If you do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and CPU cut edge well, it will
cause improper installation. Please change the insert orientation.

Step 1-2: CPU Cooling Fan Installation
1. Fasten the cooling fan supportingbase onto the CPU socket on the
motherboard.
Before installing the CPU cooling fan, adhere to the following warning:
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.

Before installing the memory modules, adhere to the following warning:
1.When RAM LED is ON, do not install / remove DIMM from socket.
2.Please note that the DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to
the one notch. Wrong orientation will cause improper installation.
Please change the insert orientation.
Step 2: Install Memory Modules
The motherboard has 2 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically
detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM
socket. The DIMM memory module can only fit in one direction due to the notch. Memory size can
vary between sockets.
DDR
Notch
Support Unbuffered DDR DIMM Sizes type:
64 Mbit (2Mx8x4 banks) 64 Mbit (1Mx16x4 banks) 128 Mbit (4Mx8x4 banks)
128 Mbit (2Mx16x4 banks) 256 Mbit (8Mx8x4 banks) 256 Mbit (4Mx16x4 banks)

DDR Introduction
Established on the existing SDRAM 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 great evolutionary solution for the PC industry that builds on the existing
SDRAM architecture, yet make the awesome advances in solving the system performance bottleneck
by doubling the memory bandwidth. Nowadays, with the highest bandwidth of 3.2GB/s of DDR400
memory and complete line of DDR400/333/266/200 memory solutions, DDR memory is the best
choice for building high performance and low latency DRAM subsystem that are suitable for servers,
workstations, and full range of desktop PCs.
1. The DIMM socket has a notch, so the DIMM memory
module can only fit in one direction.
2. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into the
DIMM socket. Then push it down.
3. Close the plastic clip at both edges of the DIMM sockets to lock the DIMM memory module.
Reverse the installation steps when you wish to remove the DIMM memory 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 , 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.
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.
