MSI Special Feature
Core Center
The Core Center is a new utility you can find in the CD-ROM disk. The utility is just like your PC doctor that can detect, view and adjust the PC hardware and system status during real time operation.
In the left side it shows the current system status including the Vcore, 3.3V, +5V and 12V. In the right side it shows the current PC hardware status such as the CPU & system temperatures and all fans speeds.
When you click the red triangles in the left and right sides, two sub-menus will open for users to adjust the thresholds of system to send out the warning messages.
1-6
Getting Started
Left-wing: Current system status
In the left sub-menu, you can configure the settings of FSB, Vcore, Memory Voltage and AGP Voltage by clicking the radio button next to each item and make it available (the radio button will be lighted as yellow when selected), use the “+” and “-” buttons to adjust, then click “OK” to apply the changes. Then you can click “Save” to save the values you just configured.
Also you may click “Auto” to start testing the maximum CPU overclocking value. The CPU FSB will automatically increase the testing value until the PC reboots. Or you may click “Default” to restore the default values.
Right-wing: PC hardware status during real time operation
In the right sub-menu, here you can configure the PC hardware status such as CPU & system temperatures and fan speeds. You may use the scroll bars to adjust each item, then click “OK” to apply the changes. The values you set for the temperatures are the maximum thresholds for the system for warnings, and the value for fan speeds are the minimum thresholds.

Hardware Setup
This chapter provides you with the information about hardware setup procedures. While doing the installation, be careful in holding the components and follow the installation procedures. For some components, if you install in the wrong orientation, the components will not work properly.
Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. Static elec tric ity may damage the components.

Hardware Setup
CPU (Central Processing Unit)
The mainboard supports Intel® Pentium 4 series processors. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called LGA775. When you are installing the CPU, make sure to install the cooler to prevent overheating. If you do not have the CPU cooler, contact your dealer to purchase and install them before turning on the computer.
For the latest information about CPU, please visit http://www.msi.com.tw/program/ products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_cpu_support.php
Important
1.Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system. Always make sure the cooling fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheating.
2.Make sure that you apply an even layer of heat sink paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation.
3.While replacing the CPU, always turn off the ATX power supply or unplug the power supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet first to ensure the safety of CPU.

CPU & Cooler Installation
When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooler attached on the top to prevent overheating. If you do not have the cooler, contact your dealer to purchase and install them before turning on the computer. Meanwhile, do not forget to apply some silicon heat transfer compound on CPU before installing the heat sink/ cooler fan for better heat dispersion.
Follow the steps below to install the CPU & cooler correctly. Wrong installation will cause the damage of your CPU & mainboard.
1.The CPU socket has a plastic cap on it to protect the contact from damage. Before you install the CPU, always cover it to protect the socket pin.
2.Remove the cap from lever hinge side (as the arrow shows).
3. The pins of socket reveal.
4. Open the load lever.
Important
1.Confirm if your CPU cooler is firmly installed before turning on your system.
2.Do not touch the CPU socket pins to avoid damaging.
3.The availability of the CPU land side cover depends on your CPU packing.
2-4
5.Lift the load lever up and open the load plate.
Hardware Setup
6.After confirming the CPU direction for correct mating, put down the CPU in the socket housing frame. Be sure to grasp on the edge of the CPU base. Note that the alignment keys are matched.
alignment key
7.Visually inspect if the CPU is seated well into the socket. If not, take out the CPU with pure vertical motion and reinstall.
8.Cover the load plate onto the package.
2-5
MS-7267 Mainboard
9.Press down the load lever lightly onto the load plate, and then secure the lever with the hook under retention tab.
11.Press the four hooks down to fasten the cooler. Then rotate the locking switch (refer to the correct direction marked on it) to lock the hooks.
locking switch
10.Align the holes on the mainboard with the heatsink. Push down the cooler until its four c lips get wedged into the holes of the mainboard.
12.Turn over the mainboard to confirm that the clip-ends are correctly inserted.
Important
1.Check the information in BIOS (Chapter 3) for the CPU temperature.
2.Whenever CPU is not installed, always protect your CPU socket pin with the plastic cap covered (shown in Figure 1) to avoid damaging.

Hardware Setup
Memory
The mainboard provides two 240-pin non-ECC DIMMs and supports dual-channel technology up to 2GB system memory.
For more information on compatible components, please visit http://www.msi.com.tw/ program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_trp_list.php

Dual-Channel: Channel A in GREEN; Channel B in ORANGE
Dual-Channel Memory Population Rules
Dual-Channel mode can enhance the performance of the system. Please refer to the following illustration for population rules under Dual-Channel mode.
DIMM1
DIMM2
Important
-DDRII modules are not interchangeable with DDR and the DDR2 standard is not backwards compatible. You should always install DDR2 memory modules in the DDR2 DIMM slots.
-In dual-channel mode, make sure that you install memory modules of the
same type and density in different channel DDR DIMM slots.
-To enable successful system boot-up, always insert the memory modules into the DIMM1 first.
-Due to the chipset resource deployment, the system density will only be detected up to 1+GB (not full 2GB) when each DIMM is installed with a 1GB memory module.
2-7
MS-7267 Mainboard
Installing DDR2 Modules
1.The memory module has only one notch on the center and will only fit in the right orientation.
2.Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the socket.
Important
You can barely see the golden finger if the module is properly inserted in the socket.
3. The plastic clip at each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close.

Power Supply
ATX 24-Pin Power Connector: ATX1
This connector allows you to connect an ATX 24-pin power supply. To connect the ATX 24-pin power supply, make sure the plug of the power supply is inserted in the proper orientation and the pins are aligned. Then push down the power supply firmly into the connector.
You may use the 20-pin ATX power supply as you like. If you’d like to use the 20-pin ATX power supply, please plug your power supply along with pin 1 & pin 13 (refer to the image at the right hand). There is also a foolproof design on pin 11, 12, 23 & 24 to avoid wrong installation.
