Static Electricity Precautions
Static electricity could damage components on this mainboard.
Take the following precautions while unpacking this mainboard
and installing it in a system.
1. Don’t take this mainboard and components out of their original
static-proof package until you are ready to install them.
2. While installing, please wear a grounded wrist strap if possible.
If you don’t have a wrist strap, discharge static electricity by
touching the bare metal of the system chassis.
3. Carefully hold this mainboard by its edges. Do not touch those
components unless it is absolutely necessary. Put this
mainboard on the top of static-protection package with
component side facing up while installing.

Install A CPU
This mainboard has a Socket 370 supporting FCPGA Celeron,
FCPGA Pentium III and Tualatin/Tualatin Celeron processors.
Do not support PPGA Celeron processor.
To ensure reliability, ensure that your processor has a
heatsink/cooling fan assembly.
Do not try to install a Socket 7 processor in the Socket-370. A
Socket 7 processor such as the Pentium-MMX, or the AMD K5/K6
does not fit in the Socket 370. Do not try to install PPGA
Celeron processor in Socket-370.
The following list notes the processors that are currently supported
by this mainboard.
Install a processor into the ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) Socket-370
on the mainboard.
1. Locate the Socket-370 and JFAN1. Pull the locking lever out
slightly from the socket and raise it to the upright position.

2: Mainboard Installation
Install Memory
This mainboard has two DIMM sockets for system memory
modules. You must install at least one memory module in order to
work out this mainboard.
DIMM2
DIMM1
For this mainboard, you must use 168-pin, 3.3V unbuffered PC100
or PC133 SDRAM memory modules. You can install any size
memory module from 32 MB to 512 MB, so the maximum
memory size is 2 x 512 MB = 1 GB.
Edge connectors on the memory modules have cut outs coinciding
with spacers in the DIMM sockets that memory modules can only
be installed in the correct orientation.
To install a module, push the retaining latches at either end of the
socket outwards. Position the memory module correctly and insert
it into the DIMM socket. Press the module down into the socket so
that the retaining latches rotate up and secure the module in place
by fitting into notches on the edge of the module.
