Hardware Setup
If your motherboard has already been installed in your computer you may still need
to refer to this chapter if you plan to upgrade your system's hardware.
This motherboard is electrostatic sensitive. Do not touch without
wearing proper safety gadget and make sure to disconnect the power
cable from the power source before performing any work on your
motherboard. Not doing so may result in electrical shock!
2-1 Installing a CPU Processor for Socket 478
The Intel® Socket 478, designed for the Pentium 4 processor, has been incorporated
as a standard motherboard specification. This motherboard will support Intel®
Pentium 4 CPUs with its embedded Hyper-Threading technology. To insert your
CPU into Socket 478 please follow the steps below:
1. Locate the 478-pin CPU socket on the motherboard.
2. Unlock the socket by pressing the lever sideways, and
then open it up to a 90-degree angle.
3. Locate a Gold Mark on the top surface of the CPU,
which is close to one of the CPU corners. The same
corner will also be cut off, leaving a noticeable notch
in the CPU's corner. These markings indicate Pin 1 on
the CPU.
4. Gently insert the CPU with Gold Mark/Pin 1 at the
same corner of Socket 478, which is located close to
the end of the lever. Allow the weight of the CPU to
push itself into place. Do not apply extra pressure as
doing so may result in damaging your CPU.
5. When the CPU is correctly inserted, close the lever
with your finger on to of the CPU to make sure the
CPU is properly embedded into the socket.
6. Insert an appropriate heat sink and fan for proper Heat
dispatch.
Installing a standard Intel® specified heat sink with cooling fan is
necessary for proper heat dissipation from your CPU. Failing to install
these items may result in overheating and possible burnout of your CPU.
In order to boot up with a newly installed CPU, AC Power must be
switched off before installation.

2-2 Setting your CPU’s Parameters
Intel “Hyper-Threading Technology”
To enabling the functionality of Hyper-Threading Technology for your computer
system you require ALL of the following platform components:
CPU: An Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor with HT Technology;
Chipset: An Intel® Chipset that supports HT Technology;
BIOS: A BIOS that supports HT Technology and has it enabled;
OS: An operating system that supports HT Technology.
Frequency Configuration:
With the latest technology this motherboard enables the user to setup a main board’s
CPU parameters through an easy-to-use BIOS setup procedure. It is no longer
necessary to make many jumper settings as on conventional motherboard.
After installing all your hardware into your PC system, you can manually configure
your CPU clock ratio and CPU clock according to your processor’s specifications.
After turning on your system’s power, enable the CMOS Setup Utility by pressing
[Delete] key when your BIOS identification screen appears. Then go to Frequency/
Voltage control option and select your CPU clock ratio and CPU clock speed (please
refer to Chapter 3 for more details).
If you install a CPU on this motherboard, you must set the [External Clock
Frequency] JP3 according to your processor types (See Section 2.4).
How to Derive your CPU Core Speed?
CPU Core Speed = CPU Clock ＊ Core/Bus Ratio
You do not need to change any voltage settings because this board will
automatically set your CPU voltage.
Overclockability:
This motherboard is designed to support overclocking ability. However,
please make sure your components are able to tolerate such abnormal
setting, while CPU clock speed is overclocked. Any attempt to operate
beyond product specifications is not recommended. We are not
responsible for damages caused by inadequate operation or settings
beyond product specifications.

2-3 Main Memory Configuration
This motherboard provides 2 184pin Double Data Rate (DDR) Dual Inline Memory
Modules (DIMM) slots, which supports PC 1600/PC2100/2700 DDR SDRAM
modules up to 2GB. Install at least one DIMM module on the slots. Memory
modules can be installed on the slots in any order. You can install either single- or
double-sided modules to meet your own needs.
To install your DDR Modules please follow the following steps:
1. Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing the retaining clips outward. The DDR
Modules has only one notch at the center of module. The DDR module will only
fit in the right position.
2. Insert the DDR Module vertically into the DIMM slot, with the correct alignment.
Then push it in until the golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted
into the socket.
3. The plastic clip on each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close to hold the
DDR Modules in place.

2-4 Connector and Jumper Settings
Connectors are used to link the system board with other parts of the system,
including power supply, keyboard, and the various controllers on the front panel of
the system case.
The power supply connector is the last connection to be made while
installing a motherboard. Before connecting the power supply, please
make sure it is not connected to the power source.
All cables that provided by CHAINTECH come with a security-proof.
PW 1 / 2 (ATX Power Supply Connector):
The power cord leading from the system's power supply to the external power
source must be the very last part connected when assembling a system. The ATX
power supply provides a single 20-pin connector interface, which incorporates
standard +/-5V, +/-12V, optional 3.3V and Soft-power signals. The Soft power signal,
a 5V trickle supply is continuously supplied when AC power is available. When the
system is in the Soft-Off mode, this trickle supply maintains the system in its
minimum power state.
The ATX 12V power supply has a new +12V (4-pin) and +5V / 3.3V (6-pin)
auxiliary power connector to enable the delivery of more +12 VDC and + 5/ 3.3V
VDC current to the motherboard.
Power-On By Modem:
While in Soft-Off state, if an external modem ring-up signal occurs, the system will
be activated and therefore can be remotely accessed. You may enable this function in
BIOS's Power Management Setup menu. (See section 3. 5)

Chapter 2
Blinking LED in Suspend Mode:
While in Suspend mode, the LED light on the front panel of your computer will
flash. Suspend mode is entered by pressing the Green Override Power Button
on
your ATX case, or by enabling the Power Management and Suspend Mode options
in BIOS's Power Management menu. (See section 3.5)
Poly-fuse Over Current Protection:
The poly-fuse protects the system from dangerous voltages that the system might be
exposed to via keyboards or USB connectors. In case of such an exposure, the
poly-fuse will immediately be disconnected from the circuit just like a normal fuse.
After being disconnected for a certain period of time, the poly-fuse will return to its
normal state. Then the keyboard or USB connector can function properly again.
Unlike conventional fuses, the poly-fuse does not have to be replaced, relieving the
user from such inconveniences.
CN1A (Front Panel Connector):
1. PWR-SW (Over-ride Power Button Connector):
The power button on the ATX chassis can be used as a normal power switch as
well as a device to activate Advanced Power Management Suspend mode. This is a
power-saving mode when the computer is idle for long periods of time. The
Soft-OFF by PWR-BTTN function in BIOS's Power Management Setup menu
must be set to [Delay 4 Sec.] to activate this function.
When the Soft-OFF by PWR-BTTN function is enabled, pressing the power button
rapidly will switch the system to Suspend mode. Any occurrence of external
activities such as pressing a key on the keyboard or moving the mouse will bring
the system back to Full-On. Pushing the button while in Full-On mode for more
than [4 seconds] will switch the system completely off. See Over-ride Power
