MS-7252 Mainboard
Central Processing Unit: CPU
1
The mainboard supports AMD® processor. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called Socket AM2 for easy CPU installation.
For the latest information about CPU, please visit http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/ pro_mbd_cpu_support.php
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.
Replacing the CPU
While replacing the CPU, always turn off theATX powersupply orunplug the power supply’s power cord from grounded outlet first to ensure the safety of CPU.
CPU Installation Procedures for Socket AM2
1.Please turn off the power and unplug the power cord before installing the CPU.
2. Pull the lever sideways awayfrom the socket. Make sure to raise the lever up to a 90-degree angle.
3.Look for the gold arrow of the CPU. The gold arrow should point as shown in the picture. The CPU can only fit in the correct orientation.
4. If the CPU is correctly installed, the pins should be completely embedded into the |
Gold arrow |
socket and can notbe seen. Please note that anyviolation of the correct installation |
|
procedures 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 intothe socket.
Correct CPU placement
Installing CPU Cooler Set
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 have the heat sink and cooling fan, contact your dealer to purchase and install them before turning on the computer.
Important
Mainboard photos shown in this section are fordemonstration of the cooler installation for Socket AM2 CPUs only. The appearance of yourmainboard 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 Fixed Lever the top of the retention mechanism. Locate the FixLeverand lift up it
.
3.Fasten down the lever.
4.Attach the CPU Fan cabletothe CPU fanconnectoron the mainboard.

Important
-DDRII modules are not interchangeable with DDR and the DDRII standard is not backward compatible, you should always install DDRII memory module in the DDRII DIMM slot and install DDR memory module in the DDR DIMM slot.
-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.
Installing DDR/ DDRII Modules
You can find the notch on the memory modules and the volt on the DIMM slots whetherDDR orDDRII. Follow the procedures below to install the DDR/ DDRII module properly.
1.The DDR/DDRII modules has only one notch on the center of module. The module 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 deeplyinserted in the socket.
3.The plastic clip at each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close.

Fan Power Connectors
The fan power connectors support system cooling fan with +12V. The CPU FAN supports Smart FAN function. When connect the wire to the connectors, always take 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 onboard, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of the fan control.

Floppy Disk Drive Connector (FDD connector)
The mainboard provides a standard floppy disk drive connector that supports 360K, 720K, 1.2M, 1.44M and 2.88M floppy disktypes.
6
ATA133 Hard Disk Connector (IDE connector)
A IDE connector can connect a Master and a Slave drive. You can connect CD-ROM/ Hard Driver and other IDE devices. The UltraATA133 interface boosts data transfer rates between the computer and the hard drive up to 133 megabytes (MB) per second. The new interface is one-third faster than earlier record-breaking UltraATA/100 technology and is backwards compatible with the existing Ultra ATA interface.
Important
If you install two hard disks on cable, you must configure the second drive to Slave mode by setting its jumper. Refer to the hard disk documentation supplied by hard disk vendors for jumper setting instructions.
