3. HARDWARE INSTALLATION
3.1. UNPACKING
The mainboard package should contain the following:
• The 5AMMC mainboard.
• USER’ S MANUAL for mainboard.
BIOS Configuration
• Cable set for IDE
¡B
Floppy (Com2 Cable is Optional) .
• Diskette for Mainboard Utility.
• ATI RAGE IIC AGP VGA DRIVER.
The mainboard contains sensitive electric components which can be easily
damaged by static electricity, so the mainboard should be left in its original packing
until it is installed.
Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat.
The operator should be wearing an anti static wristband, grounded at the same
point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the mainboard carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling may
cause damage to your board. Be sure there are no shipping and handling damage
on the board before proceeding.
After opening the mainboard carton, extract the system board and place it only on
a grounded anti-static surface component side up. Again inspect the board for
damage.
Press down on all of the socket IC’ s to make sure that they are properly seated. Do
this only on with the board placed on a firm flat surface.
M
DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED.
It is assumed that the chassis is designed for a standard ATX 2.0 mainboard
mounting. Place the chassis on the anti-static mat and remove the cover.
Take the plastic clips, Nylon stand-off and screws for mounting the system board,

3.4. SRAM INSTALLATION
Sync. SRAM (Pipeline Burst SRAM)
If Sync SRAM Chip is installed, it consists of Pipeline Burst 1 Pc 64 K x 64
512KByte.
3.5. DRAM INSTALLATION
The mainboard can be installed with 16 / 32 / 64 / 128 / 256 MB 168 pins DIMM
module DRAM, and the DRAM speed must be 67~100 MHz for SDRAM. The
DRAM memory system on mainboard consists of bank 0 & bank1 .
Because the 168 pins DIMM module is 64 bits width, using 1 PCS which can match
a 64 bits system. The total memory size is 8 MB ~ 512 MB DRAM. The DRAM
installation position refer to Figure 3.1, and notice the Pin 1 of DIMM module must
match with the Pin 1 of DIMM socket. Insert the DRAM DIMM module into the
DIMM socket at Vertical angle. If there is a wrong direction of Pin 1, the DRAM
DIMM module couldn't be inserted into socket completely.
3.6. CPU INSTALLATION AND JUMPERS SETUP
The system speed depends on the frequency of CLOCK GENERATOR. The user
can change SW selection to set up the system speed to 66 / 75 /83 /95 100MHz for
3.3V/2.5V Pentium Processor (133 / 166 / 200 MHz) ;MMX(166 / 200 / 233 MHZ) ,
AMD K6-(166 / 200 / 233 / 266 / 300 ; K6-2(266 / 300 / 333 / 350 /380 / 400) ,
Cyrix / IBM 6x86MX (PR166 / PR200 / PR233 / PR266 ) ; M¢º- PR300 / PR333 ,
IDT C6-(200 / 225 / 266).
The mainboard can use Pentium Processor, MMX , AMD-K6, AMD-K6-2, Cyrix /
IBM 6x86MX, Cyrix M¢º, IDT C6 CPU, and the CPU speed must match with the
frequency of CLOCK GEN. It will cause system hanging up if the CLOCK GEN.'S
frequency is faster than CPU's.
M
The CPU is a sensitive electric component and it can be easily damaged
by static electricity, so users must keep it away from metal surface when
the CPU is installed onto mainboard.
M
When the user installs the CPU on socket, please notice that the PIN 1 of
CPU is in the same corner as the PIN 1 of socket!
M
Before the CPU is installed, the mainboard must be placed on a flat
plane in order to avoid being broken by the pressure of CPU installation.

Built-in Real Time Clock (RTC) With 256B CMOS SRAM in M5819.
3.8. SPEAKER CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
There is a speaker in AT system for sound purpose. The 4 - Pins connector SPK is
used to connect speaker. The speaker can work well in both direction of connector
when it is installed to the connector SPK on mainboard.
3.9. HARDWARE RESET SWITCH CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
The RESET switch on panel provides users with HARDWARE RESET function
which is almost the same as power-on/off. The system will do a cold start after the
RESET switch is pushed and released by user. The RESET switch is a 2 PIN
connector and should be installed to RE on mainboard.
3.10. GREEN FUNCTION INSTALLATION
There is one jumper for the purpose of power saving, GN, to indicate the power
saving function . If the GD is lighted on, the system is in green mode. The GN
switch will force the system into green mode .
3.11. PERIPHERAL DEVICE INSTALLATION
After installation of the device and setup of the jumpers, the mainboard can be
mounted into the case and fixed by screw. To complete the mainboard installation,
the peripheral devices could be installed now. The basic system needs a display
interface card and a storage device.
If a PCI - Bus device is to be installed in the system, any one of three PCI - Bus
slots can be used for Slave or Master PCI - Bus device.
After installing the peripheral device, the user should check everything again and
prepare to power-on the system.

•
Memory
The category is display-only which is determined by POST (Power On Self
Test) of the BIOS.
Base Memory
The POST of the BIOS will determine the amount of base (or
conventional) memory installed in the system.
The value of the base memory is typically 512 K for systems with 512 K
memory installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for systems with 640K or
more memory installed on the
Motherboard.
Extended Memory
The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present during
the POST.
This is the amount of memory located above 1 MB in the CPU's
memory address map.
Expanded Memory
Expanded Memory in memory defined by the Lotus / Intel / Microsoft
(LIM) standard as EMS.
Many standard DOS applications can not utilize memory above 640,
the Expanded Memory Specification (EMS) swaps memory which not
utilized by DOS with a section, or frame, so these applications can
access all of the system memory.
Memory can be swapped by EMS is usually 64K within 1 MB or
memory above 1 MB, depends on the chipset design.
Expanded memory device driver is required to use memory as
Expanded Memory.
Other Memory
This refers to the memory located in the 640 to 1024 address space.
This is memory that can be used for different applications.
DOS uses this area to load device drivers to keep as much base
memory free for application programs. Most use for this area is
Shadow RAM.
