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.

This motherboard use the newest Intel chipset, whose 133MHz front side bus & 133MHz
memory interface delivers a clear upgrade path to the future generation of 133MHz processors
and PC-133 SDRAM. It offers ULTRA DMA 100MB/sec (ATA 100) to provide speedier
HDD throughout that boosts overall system performance.
815EDA/815EDAL with integrated 3D Graphic Accelerator, makes this board lower cost
alternative to a video card. For those wanting even greater graphic performance, an AGP 4X
slot is included on the board. This AGP slot will support either a 1X, 2X, 4X AGP VGA card.
The 815EDAL/815EPDAL integrated PCI LAN controller supports IEE802.3 standard
provide 10/100 Mb/s data transfer rate for network.
The motherboard integrated AC’97 2.1 CODEC on board which is fully compatible with
Sound Blaster Pro that gives you the best sound quality and compatibility. With 2 USB
control as well as capability of expanding to 4 USB connectors, which guarantees this board
to meet future USB demand. Moreover, these motherboards have built-in hardware monitor
function that capable of monitor and protect your computer.
The motherboard also provides special function in BIOS Setup to setting CPU Host clock step
by step increasing let users to approach over clocking
.
This motherboard provides high performance & meets future specification demand. It is
really wise choice for your computer.

pins of JBAT to store the CMOS data.
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 JBAT and short pins 2-3 for a few seconds
4. Return JBAT to its normal setting by shorting pins 1-2
5. Connect ATX power cable back to ATX power connector

2-3-2 Setting CPU Bus Clock & Memory Clock Jumper
Setting the front side bus frequency and SDRAM frequency
The motherboard uses jumper JS1, JS2, JS3 and JS4 for the front side bus frequency and
SDRAM frequency setting as shown from the table below:
CPU/SDRAM (MHz) JS1 JS2 JS3 JS4
AUTO ON ON 1-2 1-2
66/100
100/100 OFF OFF 1-2 2-3
133/100 OFF OFF 1-2 1-2
133/133 OFF OFF 2-3 1-2
(Default)
OFF OFF 2-3 2-3
Example: Using a Pentium III 866 CPU with front side bus frequency of 133MHz and
PC-133 SDRAM module, the setting of JS3 will be 2-3 and JS4 will be 1-2.
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.

WARNING!
This section is for experienced motherboard installer only. Over clocking
can result in system instability or even shortening life of the processor.
After setting the Jumper JS1, JS2, JS3, JS4 you can choose over clock running by BIOS

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.

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.

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.
12
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
WARNING!
2-5-1 Procedure For Expansion Card Installation
1. Read the documentation for your expansion card and make any necessary hardware or
