Introduction
Introduction
1
The MS-6137 v5.X Micro-ATX WH1 mainboard is a high-performance
computer mainboard based on Intel® 810/810E chipset. It is designed for Intel
Celeron-TualatinTM, Pentium® III and VIA® C3, Samuel2 processors for inexpensive business/personal desktop markets.
The Intel® 810/810E chipset is the first generation Integrated Graphics
chipset for Intel® Celeron
erator architecture consists of dedicated multi-media engines executing in parallel to deliver high performance 3D, 2D and motion compensation video capabilities. An integrated centralized memory arbiter allocates memory bandwidth
to multiple system agents to optimize system memory utilization. A new chipset
component interconnect, the hub interface, is designed into the Intel® 810/
810E chipset to provide an efficient communication channel between the memory
controller hub and I/O controller hub.
The Intel® 810/810E chipset contains three core components. The GMCH
integrates 66/100/133MHz for 810 and 66/100/133 MHz for 810E, P6 family system bus controller, integrated 2D/3D graphics accelerator, 100MHz SDRAM
controller and high-speed hub interface for communication with the ICH0/ICH.
The ICH0/ICH integrates an Ultra ATA/33 (ICH0) or Ultra ATA/66 (ICH)
controller, USB host controller, LPC interface controller, FWH interface
controller, PCI interface controller, AC`97 digital controller and a hub interface
for communication with the GMCH/GMCHO. The Intel® 82802 Firmware Hub
(FWH) component is part of the Intel® 810E chipset. The FWH is key to enabling future security and manageability infrastructure for the PC platform.

PC Alert™ III
The PC AlertTM III is a utility you can find in the CD-ROM disk. The
utility is just like your PC doctor that can detect the following PC hardware
status during real time operation:
* monitor CPU & system temperatures
* monitor fan speed(s)
* monitor system voltage
* monitor chassis intrusion
If one of the items above is abnormal, the program main screen will be
immediately shown on the screen, with the abnormal item highlighted in red.
This will continue to be shown,until user disables the warning.
Note: Items shown on PC Alert III vary depending on your system’s
status.

Hardware Setup
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
electricity may damage the components.

Central Processing Unit: CPU
The mainboard supports Intel® CeleronTM/Pentium® III processors. The
mainboard uses a CPU socket called PGA370 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.
CPU Installation Procedures
1. Pull the lever sideways away
from the socket. Then, raise
the lever up to a 90-degree
angle.
2. Look for the gold arrow.
The gold arrow should point
towards the end of lever.
The CPU will only fit in the
correct orientation.
3. Hold the CPU down firmly,
and then close the lever to
complete the installation.
Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system,
always make sure the cooling fan can work properly to

CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure
If CPU Clock = 100MHz
Core/Bus ratio = 9
then CPU core speed = Host Clock x Core/Bus ratio
= 100MHz x 9
= 900MHz
Overclocking
This motherboard is designed to support overclocking.
WARNING!
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.

Memory Installation
Memory Bank Configuration
The mainboard supports a maximum memory size of 256MB (64-bit technology) or 512MB (128-bit technology for SDRAM). It provides two 168-pin
unbuffered DIMMs (Double In-Line Memory Module) slots. It supports 8 MB
to 128 Mbytes DIMM memory module.

Synchronous DRAM is a type of dynamic RAM memory chip that has
been widely used starting in the latter part of the 1990s. SDRAMs are based on
standard dynamic RAM chips, but have sophisticated features that make them
considerably faster. First, SDRAM chips are fast enough to be synchronized
with the CPU's clock, which eliminates wait states. Second, the SDRAM chip is
divided into two cell blocks, and data is interleaved between the two so that
while a bit in one block is being accessed, the bit in the other is being prepared
for access. This allows SDRAM to burst the second and subsequent, contiguous characters at a rate of 10ns, compared to 60ns for the first character.
SDRAM provides 800 MBps or 1 GBps data transfer depending on
whether the bus is 100MHz or 133MHz.

Memory Population Rules
1. Supports only SDRAM DIMM.
2. To operate properly, at least one 168-pin DIMM module must be installed.
3. This mainboard supports Table Free memory, so memory can be installed on
DIMM1 or DIMM 2 in any order.
4. Supports 3.3 volt DIMM.
1. The DIMM slot has 2 Notch Keys “VOLT and DRAM”, so the
DIMM memory module can only fit in one direction.

Power Supply
The mainboard supports ATX power supply for the power system. Before inserting the power supply connector, always make sure that all components are installed properly to ensure that no damage will be caused.
ATX 20-Pin Power Connector: JWR1
This connector allows you to connect to an ATX power supply. To
connect to the ATX power supply, make sure the plugs 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. The power connector supports
instant power on function which means that system will boot up immediately
when the power supply connector is inserted on the board.
