IntroductionChapter 1
1: Introduction
The mini P4 barebone is a high-performance personal computer
barebones system that supports the Intel® Pentium® 4
processor. The barebone’s motherboard has one DIMM
memory socket that accommodates 200/266 MHz DDR
SDRAM (without AGP slot version) or 200/266/333MHz DDR
SDRAM (with AGP slot version).
The without AGP slot model uses the latest Intel® 845GV chipset
or the Intel® 845GE chipset (with AGP slot version)
to integrate all system control functions.
Features of this system include support for:
• Intel® Pentium® 4 processor
• 533/400 MHz system bus
• Up to 1GB DDR SDRAM
• One 32-bit PCI/33 MHz slot (without AGP slot version)

This chapter describes installing components and devices
on the barebone’ motherboard. Please review each of
the following procedures before you start. For the location
and description of system components, please refer to
Appendix 1, Hardware Layout.
Getting Started
The package contains the motherboard/chassis assembly,
plus one box containing the Fan/Heatsink, and one box
containing accessories.
1. Unpacking the package.
2. Remove the two smaller boxes and place to one side.
3. Remove the motherboard/chassis assembly, and
4. Unscrew the three thumbscrews at the rear of the barebone

Selecting a Processor
This motherboard supports all Intel Pentium 4 processors.
The motherboard’s BIOS automatically detects the
required settings and configures the CMOS Setup Utility.
Installing the Processor
It is important to review all of the instructions before
beginning the installation procedure. Carefully handle the
processor by its edges, and take all precautions against
electrostatic discharge. The boxed Intel Pentium 4 processor comes with a Heatsink and Thermal Interface Material
applicator. Non-boxed processors follow the same procedures, but the accessories may have a different appearance. The following illustrations are a generic representation and may not show the components’ exact appearance.
Note that you install the CPU by reaching your hands and
fingers through the chassis frame to manipulate the CPU
and socket.

1. Unlock the socket by pressing the lever sideways, then
lift it up to a vertical angle.
Step 1
User’s Manual
2. Position the CPU above the socket such that its
marked corner matches the base of the socket lever.
Step 2
3. Press it firmly on the socket while you push down the
socket lever to secure the CPU.

Mini P4 Barebone Series Chapter 2
4. After installing the CPU you need to apply the Thermal Interface Material (TIM) to the top of the installed
CPU (Fig. 2) and remove the piece of tape from the
Heatsink. The TIM is supplied in an applicator with
the boxed Pentium 4 processors. The TIM secures the
Fan/Heatsink to the CPU. However, if the Fan/
Heatsink already has a patch of TIM on its underside,
you won’t need to apply additional TIM to the CPU
(Fig. 1).
Step 4
The heatsink may have thermal interface material attached to the bottom as shown in
Fig.1, or you may need to apply the thermal interface material using a syringe as
shown in Fig.2.

is important to make sure the Fan/Heatsink does not
rotate or twist on the processor. Securing the Fan/
Heatsink while closing the clip lever will ensure the
thermal interface material (TIM) is not damaged and
the processor will operate correctly. The TIM is
attached to the heatsink.

incorrectly. The BIOS recognizes the installed memory
and configures the CMOS Setup Utility automatically.
Installing Memory Modules
To install memory modules:
1 Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing the retaining clips
outward.
2 Align the “notch” on the memory module to the
“break” on the socket.

Installing Internal Peripherals
After installing the CPU, Fan/Heatsink, and memory
modules, you can install internal peripherals such as a
hard disk drive (IDE/HDD), and CD-ROM drive. You
may have to set the jumpers of each internal peripheral to
either Master or Slave mode depending on whether you
install more than one peripheral.
Important: Make sure the 110/220 switch on the back
panel is set to the appropriate voltage.
Installing an IDE drive
To install an IDE drive:
1 Set the required jumpers on the IDE drive according to
the instructions of the manufacturer.

BIOS SetupChapter 4
4: BIOS Setup
After you have installed peripherals, configured the
motherboard and assembled the system, you can power up
the system.
The system uses the Award BIOS utility. The setup
instructions for configuring the system’s BIOS
(Basic Input Output System) are contained on this chip.
The Award BIOS Utility lets you set system parameters,
which are stored in nonvolatile CMOS RAM. This
information is retained by battery backup when the system
is powered off. The values stored in the CMOS configures
the system each time the system is powered on.
Running the BIOS Utility
The BIOS Utility does not depend on an operating system
to run. You run the utility by typing the <Del> or Delete
key before the operating system boots up. The BIOS
Utility Main Menu appears. You navigate the BIOS Utility
using keyboard commands that are listed on the lower
right portion of each screen.
Once you have fully configured the BIOS Utility you will
rarely need to configure it again.

ATX12V Power Connectors
The two power connectors let you attach two leads from
an ATX12V power supply to the motherboard. The
ATX12V standard requires a 20-pin ATX connector plus a
4-pin ATX12V connector.
Insert the 20-pin lead of the ATX12V power supply into
the first 20 holes of the JATXPWR2 power connector
leaving the last four empty. Insert the 4-pin ATX12V lead
into the JATXPWR1 power connector.
