Hardware Setup

Central Processing Unit: CPU

The mainboard supports Intel® Pentium® 4/Celeron Northwood/Prescott proc­essor in the 478 pin package. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called PGA478 for
easy CPU installation. When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a
heat sink and a cooling fan attached on the top to prevent overheating. If
you do not find the heat sink and cooling fan, 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

Example of CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure

If CPU Clock = 133MHz

Core/Bus ratio = 23

then CPU core speed = Host Clock x Core/Bus ratio

MSI Reminds You...

Overheating

Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system, always make
sure the cooling fan can work properly to protect the CPU from
overheating. If the system shuts down automatically, please unplug
the power cord and check the cooling fan.

Replacing the CPU

While replacing the CPU, always turn off the ATX power supply or
unplug the power supply’s power cord from grounded outlet first to

ensure the safety of CPU.

CPU Installation Procedures for Socket 478

1. Please turn off the power and

unplug the power cord before
installing the CPU.

2. Pull the lever sideways away

from the socket. Make sure to
raise the lever up to a 90-de­gree angle.

3. Look for the cut edge. The cut
edge should point towards the
lever pivot. The CPU can only fit
in the correct orientation.

4. If the CPU is correctly installed,
the pins should be completely
embedded into the socket and
can not be seen. Please note
that any violation of the correct
installation procedures may
cause permanent damages to
your mainboard.

Installing the CPU Fan

As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance,
thermal management becomes increasingly important. To dissipate heat, you need to
attach the CPU cooling fan and heatsink on top of the CPU. Follow the instructions
below to install the Heatsink/Fan:

1. Locate the CPU and its retention

mechanism on the motherboard.

retention mechanism

2. Position the heatsink onto the reten­tion mechanism.

3. Mount the fan on top of the heatsink.
Press down the fan until its four clips
get wedged in the holes of the re­tention mechanism.

5. Connect the fan power cable from
the mounted fan to the 3-pin fan
power connector on the board.

MSI Reminds You...

If your Intel Pentium 4 proces­sor supports 3.0GHz (and

up), please be sure to use a
multi-direction fan to make the heatsink
exhausts air towards the voltage regu­lators on the board easier. Multi-direc­tion fan has better performance in CPU
overheating.

MS-7031 Micro ATX Mainboard

Memory

The mainboard provides 4 slots for 184-pin, 2.5V DDR DIMM with 8 memory
banks. You can install DDR266 / DDR333 / DDR400 SDRAM modules on the DDR DIMM
slots (DIMM 1~4). To operate properly, at least one DIMM module must be installed.

DDR DIMM Slots

(DIMM 1~4, from left to right)

Channel A: DIMM1 & DIMM2 (green)

Channel B: DIMM3 & DIMM4 (purple)

Introduction to DDR SDRAM

DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM, but doubles
the rate by transferring data twice per cycle. It uses 2.5 volts as opposed to 3.3 volts
used in SDR SDRAM, and requires 184-pin DIMM modules rather than 168-pin DIMM
modules used by SDR SDRAM. Please note that the DDR SDRAM does not support
ECC (error correcting code) and registered DIMM.

DDR Population Rules

Install at least one DIMM module on the slots. Each DIMM slot supports up to a
maximum size of 1GB. Users can install either single- or double-sided modules to
meet their own needs. Please note that each DIMM can work respectively for

single-channel DDR, but there are some rules while using dual-channel
DDR (Please refer to the suggested DDR population table on p.2-7). Users may install

memory modules of different type and density on different-channel DDR DIMMs.
However, the same type and density memory modules are necessary while
using dual-channel DDR, or instability may happen.

MSI Reminds You...

For the tested & compatible memory modules, please go to MSI
global website (http://www.msi.com.tw) for the updated details.

2-6

Hardware Setup

Please refer to the following table for detailed dual-channel DDR. Other
combination not listed below will function as single-channel DDR.

DIMM1 (Ch A) DIMM2 (Ch A) DIMM3 (Ch B) DIMM4 (Ch B) System Density

128MB~1GB 128MB~1GB 256MB~2GB

128MB~1GB 128MB~1GB 256MB~2GB

128MB~1GB 128MB~1GB 128MB~1GB 128MB~1GB 512MB~4GB

MSI Reminds You...

1. Dual-channel DDR works ONLY in the 3 combinations listed in the
table above.

2. Due to the South Bridge resource deployment, the system density
will only be detected up to 3+ GB (not to full 4GB) when each DIMM
is installed with an 1GB memory module.

Installing DDR Modules

1. The DDR DIMM has only one notch on the center of module. The module 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.

MSI Reminds You...

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.
