Safety information
Safety information
Electrical safety
● To prevent electrical shock hazard, disconnect the power cable from the electrical outlet before
relocating the system.
● When adding or removing devices to or from the system, ensure that the power cables for the
devices are unplugged before the signal cables are connected. If possible, disconnect all
power cables from the existing system before you add a device.
● Before connecting or removing signal cables from the mainboard, ensure that all power cables
are unplugged.
● Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension cord. These devices can
interrupt the grounding circuit.
● Set your power supply to the correct voltage in your area. If you are not sure about the voltage
of the electrical outlet you are using, contact your local power company.
● If the power supply is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact a qualified service
technician or your retailer.
Operational safety
● Before installing the mainboard and adding devices on it, carefully read all the manuals that
came with the package.
● Before using the product, make sure all cables are correctly connected and the power cables
are not damaged. If you detect any damage, contact your dealer immediately.
● To avoid short circuits, keep paper clips, screws, and staples away from connectors, slots,
sockets, and circuitry.
● Avoid dust, humidity, and temperature extremes. Do not place the product in any area where it
can get wet.
● Place the product on a stable surface.
● If you encounter technical problems with the product, contact a qualified service technician or
your retailer.

1 Product introduction
1 Product introduction
This chapter describes the features of this mainboard. It includes brief explanations of the special
attributes of the mainboard and the new technology it supports.
1.1 Special features
1.1.1 Product highlights
AMD Athlon. 64 processor support
The mainboard comes with a 754-pin surface mount, Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket that supports
the AMD Athlon. 64 processor. With an integrated low-latency high-bandwidth memory controller
and a highly scalable HyperTransport technology-based system bus, the mainboard provides a
powerful platform for your diverse computing needs. HyperTransport features a 16-bit/1.6 GHz data
transfer rate between the processor and the system chipset for a total 6.4 GB/s bandwidth. This
speeds up the link between computer peripherals and optimizes overall system performance.
VIA K8M800 and VT8237 chipset
The VIA K8M800 northbridge is a 128-bit processor controller that uses the HyperTransport bus link
to interconnect with the AMD64 processor. The K8M800 features the S3 Graphics UniChrome Pro
integrated graphics processor (IGP) to run the latest 3D and digital media applications without an
external AGP graphics card.
The VT8237 southbridge employs the VIA DriveStation Controller Suite that enables multiple drive
configuration through native Serial ATA, RAID, and Parallel ATA133 support.
DDR400 support
The mainboard features a single memory architecture for up to 2 GB system memory. Two 184-pin
DIMM sockets are available for installation of unbuffered non-ECC PC3200/2700 DDR DIMMs.
Integrated 10/100 Mbps LAN
Onboard is a Realtek 8201CL LAN PHY that works with the integrated MAC in the VT8237
southbridge to fully support 10BASE-T/ 100BASE-TX Ethernet networking.

1 Product introduction
6-channel and digital audio solution
Providing high-quality, 6-channel audio solution is the Realtek ALC655 Audio CODEC.
AGP 8X support
AGP 8X (AGP 3.0) is the next generation VGA interface specification that enables enhanced
graphics performance with high bandwidth speeds of up to 2.12 GB/s.
USB 2.0 technology
The mainboard implements the new Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 specification that increases the
connection speed from 12 Mbps on USB 1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps.
The higher bandwidth of USB 2.0 allows connection of devices such as high resolution video
conferencing cameras, next generation scanners and printers. USB 2.0 is backward compatible with
USB 1.1.

1 Product introduction
1.2 Before you proceed
Note the following precautions before you install mainboard components or change any mainboard
settings.
● Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.
!
1.2.1 Onboard LED
The mainboard comes with a standby power LED. When lit, this green LED (SB_PWR) indicates
that the system is ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode. This is a reminder that you should shut
down the system and unplug the power cable before removing or plugging in any mainboard
component.
● Discharge any static electricity by touching the metal surface of the system chassis.
● Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
● Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or in
the bag that came with the component.
● Before you install or remove any component, switch off the ATX power supply or
detach the power cord from the power supply. Failure to do so can cause severe
damage to the mainboard, peripherals, and/or components.

!
Do not overtighten the screws! Doing so can damage the mainboard.
1.4 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
1.4.1 Overview
The AMD Athlon. 64 processor has a gold triangle in one corner. This mark indicates the processor
Pin A1 that should match a specific corner of the CPU socket.
K8V-MX Socket 754
Incorrect installation of the CPU into the socket can bend the pins and severely damage
