Hardware Setup
CPU (Central Processing Unit)
The mainboard supports AMD® Phenom/ Athlon/ Sempron processors in Socket AM2/ AM2+. The Socket AM2/ AM2+ offer a easy CPU installation. W hen 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 have 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://global.msi.com.tw/index. php?func=cpuform
Important
Overheating
Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system. Always make sure the cooling fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Make sure that you apply an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation.
Replacing the CPU
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.
Overclocking
This mainboard is designed to support overclocking. However, please make sure your components are able to tolerate such abnormal setting, while doing overclocking. Any attempt to operate beyond product specifications is not recommended. We do not guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate operation or beyond product specifications.

CPU Installation Procedures for Socket AM2/ AM2+
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-de- gree angle.

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 proc edures may cause permanent damages to your mainboard.
5.Press the CPU down firmly into the socket and close the lever. As the CPU is likely to move while the lever is being closed, always close the lever with your fingers pressing tightly on top of the CPU to make sure the CPU is properly and completely embedded into the socket.

Installing CPU Cooler Set
W hen 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 have the heat sink and cooling fan, contact your dealer to purchase and install them before turning on the computer.
Important
1.Read the CPU status in BIOS (Chapter 3).
2.Mainboard photos shown in this section are for demonstration of the CPU/ cooler installation only. The appearance of your mainboard may vary depending on the model you purchase.
1.Position the cooling set onto the retention mechanism.
Hook one end of the clip to hook first.
2.Then press down the other end of the clip to fasten the cooling set on the top of the retention mechanism. Locate the Fix Lever and lift up it .

3. Fasten down the lever.
4.Attach the CPU Fan cable to the CPU fan connector on the mainboard.

Dual-Channel Memory Population Rules
In Dual-Channel mode, the memory modules can transmit and receive data with two data bus lines simultaneously. Enabling Dual-Channel mode can enhance the system performance. The following illustrations explain the population rules for Dual-Channel mode.

Important
-DDR2 memory 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 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 7+GB (not full 8GB) when each DIMM is installed with a 2GB memory module.
2-6
Hardware Setup
Installing Memory Modules
1.The memory module has only one notch on the center and will only fit in the right orientation.
2.Insert the memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the DIMM slot. The plastic clip at each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close when the memory module is properly seated.
Important
You can barely see the golden finger if the module is properly inserted in the DIMM slot.
3.Manually check if the memory module has been locked in place by the DIMM slot clips at the sides.

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.

Hardware Setup
Important
1.Make sure that all the connectors are connected to proper ATX power supplies to ensure stable operation of the mainboard.
2.Power supply of 450 watts (and above) is highly recommended for system stability.
Important Notification about Power Issue
NForce chipset is very sensitive to ESD (Electrostatic Discharge), therefore this issue mostly happens while the users intensively swap memory modules under S5 (power-off) states, and the power code is plugged while installing modules. Due to several pins are very sensitive to ESD, so this kind of memory-replacement actions might cause system chipset unable to boot. Please follow the following solution to avoid this situation.
Unplug the AC power cable (shown in figure 1) or unplug all power connectors on the mianboard (shown in figure 2) before the 1st installation or during system upgrade procedure.

Unplug the AC power cable

Mouse/Keyboard
The standard PS/2® mouse/keyboard DIN connector is for a PS/2® mouse/keyboard.
DVI-D Port
The DVI-D (Digital Visual Interface-Digital) connector allows you to connect a LCD monitor. It provides a high-speed digital interconnection between the computer and its display device. To connect an LCD monitor, simply plug your monitor cable into the DVI connector, and make sure that the other end of the cable is properly connected to your monitor (refer to your monitor manual for more information.)
1394 Port
The IEEE1394 port on the back panel provides connection to IEEE1394 devices.
LAN
The standard RJ-45 LAN jack is for connection to the Local Area Network (LAN). You can connect a network cable to it.

Connectors
IDE Connector: IDE1 / IDE2
This connector supports IDE hard disk drives, optical disk drives and other IDE devices.
IDE1
IDE2 |
IDE1 (Primary IDE Connector)
The first hard drive should always be connected to IDE1. IDE1 can connect a Master and a Slave drive.
IDE2 (Secondary IDE Connector)
IDE2 can also connect a Master and a Slave drive.
Important
If you install two IDE devices on the same cable, you must configure the drives separately to master / slave mode by setting jumpers. Refer to IDE device’s documentation supplied by the vendors for jumper setting instructions.

Hardware Setup
Fan Power Connectors: CPUFAN, SYSFAN1/ 2/ 3/ 4
The fan power connectors support system cooling fan with +12V. When connecting the wire to the connectors, always note that the red wire is the positive and should be connected to the +12V; the black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If the mainboard has a System Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of the CPU fan control.
