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.

The mainboard supports Intel® Pentium® 4 processor. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called Socket 478 for easy CPU installation. Make sure that the CPU has a Heat Sink and a cooling fan attached to prevent overheating. If you do not find the Heat Sink and cooling fan, contact your dealer or purchase them before turning on the computer.
1.Pull the lever sideways away from the socket. Then, raise the lever up to a 90-degree angle.
2.Look for the dot/cut edge. The dot/cut edge should point towards the lever pivot. 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 WARNING! properly to protect the CPU from overheating.

Hardware Setup
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 locked in the holes of the retention mechanism.
4.Press the two levers down to fasten the fan. Each lever can be pressed down in only ONE direction.

Overclocking
This motherboard is designed to support overclocking.
However, please make sure your components are able to WARNING! 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.

Hardware Setup
The mainboard provides 2 sockets for 168-pin SDRAM DIMM (Double In-Line Memory Module) modules and supports a maximum memory size of 2GB.
DIMM Slots
(DIMM 1~2)
Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) 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.

Note: As 845 chipset does not properly support the PC100 memory, it is strongly recommended to install PC133 DIMM modules for better system performance and stability. We do not guarantee the system stability when installing PC 100 DIMM modules.
1.The DIMM slot has 2 Notch Keys “VOLT and DRAM”, so the DIMM memory module can only fit in one direction.
