Series (MS-7519 v1.X) Mainboard

En-4

Central Processing Unit: CPU

The mainboard supports Intel® processor. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called
Socket 775 for easy CPU installation. If you do not have the CPU cooler, consult your
dealer 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 inad-

equate operation or beyond product specifications.

MS-7519 Mainboard

CPU & Cooler Installation Procedures for Socket 775

1. The CPU socket has a plastic cap on it to protect the contact from
damage. Before you have installed the CPU, always cover it to pro­tect the socket pin.

2. Remove the cap from lever hinge side.

3. The pins of socket reveal.

4. Open the load lever.

5. Lift the load lever up and open the load plate.

6. After confirming the CPU direction for correct mating, put down the
CPU in the socket housing frame. Be sure to grasp on the edge of the
CPU base. Note that the alignment keys are matched.

7. Visually inspect if the CPU is seated well into the socket. If not, take
out the CPU with pure vertical motion and reinstall.

8. Cover the load plate onto the package.

9. Press down the load lever lightly onto the load plate, and then
secure the lever with the hook under retention tab.

10.Align the holes on the mainboard with the cooler. Push down the
cooler until its four clips get wedged into the holes of the mainboard.

11.Press the four hooks down to fasten the cooler. Then rotate the
locking switch (refer to the correct direction marked on it) to lock the
hooks.

12.Turn over the mainboard to confirm that the clip-ends
are correctly inserted.

alignment key

Important

1. Read the CPU status in BIOS.

2. Whenever CPU is not installed, always protect your CPU socket pin with the

plastic cap covered to avoid damaging.

3. 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.

Important

- DDR2 memory modules are not interchangeable with DDR and the DDR2 stan

dard 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.

En-7

MS-7519 Mainboard

Installing Memory Modules

You can find the notch on the memory module and the volt on the DIMM slot. Follow the
procedures below to install the memory module properly.

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 memory 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.

Fan Power Connectors: CPUFAN1/ SYSFAN1/ SYSFAN2

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 on-board, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take
advantage of the fan control.

BIOS Setup

This chapter provides basic information on the BIOS Setup program and allows you to
configure the system for optimum use. You may need to run the Setup program when:

* An error message appears on the screen during the system booting up, and requests

you to run BIOS SETUP.

* You want to change the default settings for customized features.

Important

1.The items under each BIOS category described in this chapter are under con­tinuous update for better system performance. Therefore, the description may
be slightly different from the latest BIOS and should be held for reference only.

2.Upon boot-up, the 1st line appearing after the memory count is the BIOS
version. It is usually in the format:

A7519IMS V1.0 051508 where:
1st digit refers to BIOS maker as A = AMI, W = AWARD, and P = PHOENIX.
2nd - 5th digit refers to the model number.
6th refers to the Chipset vender as A = AMD, I = Intel, V = VIA, N = Nvidia, U = ULi.
7th - 8th digit refers to the customer as MS = all standard customers.
V1.0 refers to the BIOS version.
051508 refers to the date this BIOS was released.
