Thermal Solutions
As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance, thermal management becomes increasingly crucial when building computer systems. Maintaining the proper thermal environment is key to reliable, long-term system operation. The overall goal in providing the proper thermal environment is keeping the processor below its specified maximum case temperature. Heatsinks induce improved processor heat dissipation through increased surface area and concentrated airflow from attached fans. In addition, interface materials allow effective transfers of heat from the processor to the heatsink. For optimum heat transfer, Intel recommends the use of thermal grease and mounting clips to attach the heatsink to the processor.
When selecting a thermal solution for your system, please refer to the website below for collection of heatsinks evaluated and recommended by Intel for use with Intel processors.

When jumper setting Auto it only can support CPU/SDRAM frequency at 66/100,
100/100, 133/100 MHz, we recommend setting 133/133 manually when use F.S.B. 133MHz CPU to increase performance.
In “Miscellaneous Control” section of CMOS Setup Utility, you can increase the CPU clock step by step increase for over clocking possibility. Please refer to page
12 for more details.
2. Keyboard Power On Function setting (3-pin) : JK1
This allows you to disable the keyboard power on function. Set the jumper to enabled or disabled if you wish to use your keyboard (by pressing < >) to power on

To clear the CMOS, follow the procedure below:
1. Turn off the system and unplug the AC power
2. Remove ATX power cable from ATX power connector
3. Locate JBAT1 and short pins 2-3 for a few seconds
4. Return JBAT1 to its normal setting by shorting pins 1-2
5. Connect ATX power cable back to ATX power connector
Note: When should clear CMOS

2-3-1 Glossary
Chipset (core logic) - two or more integrated circuits which control the interfaces between the system processor, RAM, I/O devises, and adapter cards.
Processor socket - the socket used to mount the system processor on the motherboard. Slot (AGP, PCI, ISA, RAM) - the slots used to mount adapter cards and system RAM. AGP - Accelerated Graphics Port - a high speed interface for video cards; runs at 1X
(66MHz), 2X (133MHz), or 4X (266MHz). PCI - Peripheral Component Interconnect - a high speed interface for video cards, sound
cards, network interface cards, and modems; runs at 33MHz.
Serial Port - a low speed interface typically used for mouse and external modems. Parallel Port - a low speed interface typically used for printers. PS/2 - a low speed interface used for mouse and keyboards. USB - Universal Serial Bus - a medium speed interface typically used for mouse, keyboards,
scanners, and some digital cameras. Sound (interface) - the interface between the sound card or integrated sound connectors and
speakers, MIC, game controllers, and MIDI sound devices. BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) - the program logic used to boot up a computer and
establish the relationship between the various components. Driver - software, which defines the characteri stics of a device for use by another device or
other software. Processor - the "Central Processing Unit" (CPU); the principal integrated circuit used for
doing the "computing" in "personal computer"
Front Side Bus Frequency -
The working frequency of the motherboard, which is generated
by the clock generator for CPU, DRAM and PCI BUS.
CPU L2 Cache -
The fl as h me mo ry i ns i de th e C P U, no rm al l y Pe n ti um III CP U ha s 256K or
above, while Celeron CPU will have 128K.

The way to recognize the specification of CPU from the packing Pentium III 370 pins FC-PGA
On the surface of the CPU as shown on the right picture, under the word of “PENTIUM III” the code is:
RB 80526 P2 866 256 RB : P2 :
PY–100MHz front side bus frequency
866 :
866MHz
256 :
Celeron FC–PGA
On the surface of the CPU as shown on the right picture, under the word of “Celeron” the code is:
566/128/66/1.5V 566 : 128 : 66 :
1.5V :
FC–PGA packing P2–133MHz front side bus frequency
CPU internal frequency, where here is
the size of L2 cache, where here is 256K
CPU internal frequency, where here is 566MHz the size of L2 cache, where here is 128K front side bus frequency, where here is 66MHz the voltage for the CPU
2-3-2 Setting CPU Bus Clock & Memory Clock Jumper
Setting the front side bus frequency and SDRAM frequency
The motherboard uses jumper JS1 and JS3 for the front side bus frequency and SDRAM frequency setting as shown from the table below:
CPU/SDRAM (MHz) JS4 JS2 JS1 JS3
AUTO ON ON 1-2 1-2
66/100 100/100 OFF OFF 2-3 1-2 133/100 OFF OFF 1-2 1-2 133/133 OFF OFF 1-2 2-3
(default)
Example: Using a Pentium III 866 CPU with front side bus frequency of 133MHz and
PC-133 SDRAM module, the setting of JS1 will be 1-2, JS3 will be 2-3 and both JS2 & JS4 will be off. This sets both CPU BUS CLOCK and SDRAM CLOCK to be 133MHz.
For experience user looking for over clocking possibility, please refer to sec 2-3-4.

2-3-3 Install CPU
This motherboard provides a ZIF socket 370. The CPU that comes with the motherboard should have a cooling FAN attached to prevent overheating. If this is not the case, then purchase a correct cooling FAN before you turn on your system.
WARNING!
Be sure that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor’s heatsink and CPU cooling FAN is working correctly, otherwise it may cause the processor and motherboard overheat and damage, you may install an auxiliary cooling FAN, if necessary.
To install a CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover. Locate the ZIF socket and open it by first pulling the level sideways away from the socket then upward to a 90-degree angle. Insert the CPU with the correct orientation as shown below. The notched corner should point toward the end of the level. Because the CPU has a corner pin for two of the four corners, the CPU will only fit in the orientation as shown.

When you put the CPU into the ZIF socket. No forces require to insert of the CPU, then press the level to locate position slightly without any extra force.
2-3-4 Over clock Running
WARNING!
After setting the Jumper JS1, JS3 you can choose over clock running by BIOS CMOS SETUP UTILITY. When you entered CMOS SETUP UTILITY, choose “Miscellaneous Control” you will see the screen as below then.
This section is for experienced motherboard installer only. Over clocking can result in system instability or even shortening life of the processor.

WARNING!
The Design of this motherboard follows chipset and CPU vender’s design guideline. Any attempts to push beyond product specification are not recommended and you are taking your own risk to damage your system or important data. Before over clocking, you must make sure your components are able to tolerate such abnormal setting, especially CPU, memory, hard disks, and VGA cards.

2-4 Install Memory
This motherboard provides two 168-pin DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES (DIMM) sites for memory expansion available from minimum memory size of 32MB to maximum memory size of 512MB SDRAM.
Valid Memory Configurations

NOTE!
Make sure the total installed memory does not exceeds 512MB, otherwise the system may hang during startup.
Generally, installing SDRAM modules to your motherboard is very easy, you can refer to figure 2-4 to see what a 168-Pin PC100 & PC133 SDRAM module looks like.
DIMM1 (BANK0+ BANK1)
DIMM2 (BANK2+ BANK3)
Figure 2-4
NOTE!
When you install DIMM module fully into the DIMM socket the eject tab should be locked into the DIMM module very firmly and fit into its indention on both sides.
WARNING!
For the SDRAM CLOCK is set at 133MHz, use only PC133-compliant DIMMs. When this motherboard operate at 133Mhz, most system will not even boot if non-compliant modules are used because of the strict timing issues, if your DIMM are not PC133-compliant, set the SDRAM clock to 100MHz to ensure system stability.
2-5 Expansion Cards
13
WARNING!
Turn off your power when adding or removing expansion cards or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both your motherboard and expansion cards.
2-5-1 Procedure For Expansion Card Installation
1. Read the documentation for your expansion card and make any necessary hardware or software setting for your expansion card such as jumpers.
2. Remove your computer’s cover and the bracket plate on the slot you intend to use.
3. Align the card’s connectors and press firmly.
4. Secure the card on the slot with the screen you remove above.
5. Replace the computer system’s cover.
6. Set up the BIOS if necessary.
7. Install the necessary software driver for your expansion card.
2-5-2 Assigning IRQs For Expansion Card
Some expansion cards need an IRQ to operate. Generally, an IRQ must exclusively assign to one use. In a standard design, there are 16 IRQs available but most of them are already in use.
Standard Interrupt Assignments
