To protect the global environment and as an environmentalist, MSI must remind you that...
Under the European Union (“EU”) Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment,

Directive 2002/96/EC, which takes effect on August 13, 2005, products of “electrical and
electronic equipment” cannot be discarded as municipal waste anymore and manufacturers
of covered electronic equipment will be obligated to take back such products at the end of
their useful life. MSI will comply with the product take back requirements at the end of life
of MSI-branded products that are sold into the EU. You can return these products to local
collection points.

This chapter provides you with the information about hardware setup
procedures. While doing the installation, be careful in holding the com

­ponents 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.

CPU (Central Processing Unit)

When installing the CPU, make sure that you install the cooler to prevent over­heating. If you do not have the CPU cooler, consult your dealer before turning on
the computer.

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 power supply or unplug the power

supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet rst to ensure the safety of CPU.

Introduction to LGA 1155 CPU

The surface of LGA 1155 CPU. Remember to apply some thermal paste on it for
better heat dispersion.

Hardware Setup MS-S0391

CPU Installation

When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooler attached on
the top to prevent overheating. Meanwhile, do not forget to apply some thermal
paste on CPU before installing the heat sink/cooler fan for better heat disper­sion.

Open the load lever and remove the
plastic cap.

1. Lift the load lever up to fully open
position.

2.

After con󰘰rming 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.

3.

Engage the load lever while pressing
down lightly onto the load plate.

4.

Alignment Key

Important

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

2-5

Secure the load lever with the hook
under the retention tab.

5. Make sure the four hooks are in proper
position before you install the cooler.
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.

6.

Press the four hooks down to fasten
the cooler. Turn over the mainboard
to con󰘰rm that the clip-ends are
correctly inserted.

7.

Finally, attach the CPU Fan cable
to the CPU fan connector on the
mainboard.

8.

Important

Conrm if your CPU cooler is rmly installed before turning on your system.

Do not touch the CPU socket pins to avoid damage.

Whenever CPU is not installed, always protect your CPU socket pins with the plastic
cap covered.

Please refer to the documentation in the CPU cooler package for more details about
the CPU cooler installation.

Read the CPU status in BIOS.

Installing Memory Modules

The memory module has only one notch on the center and will only 󰘰t in the
right orientation.

Insert the memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until
the golden 󰘰nger 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.

Manually check if the memory module has been locked in place by the DIMM
slot clips at the sides.

You can barely see the golden nger if the memory module is properly inserted

in the DIMM slot.

Connector

Fan Power Connector: CPUFAN1, SYSFAN1~2

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
onboard, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take
advantage of the CPU fan control.

should be displayed on the screen to the serial COM port for display on the
terminal screen. Besides, all data received from the serial port is interpreted
as keystrokes from a local keyboard.

Console Redirection Settings

Terminal Type

To operate the system’s console redirection, you need a terminal supporting
ANSI terminal protocol and a RS-232 null modem cable connected between

Bootup NumLock State

This setting is to set the Num Lock status when the system is powered on. Set

to [Off] will allow users to use the arrow keys on the numeric keypad.

Fast Boot

This BIOS feature determines if the BIOS should hide the normal POST mes

­sages with the motherboard or system manufacturer’s full-screen logo.

When it is enabled, the BIOS will display the full-screen logo during the boot-up
sequence, hiding normal POST messages.

When it is disabled, the BIOS will display the normal POST messages, instead
of the full-screen logo.

Please note that enabling this BIOS feature often adds 2-3 seconds of delay to
the booting sequence. This delay ensures that the logo is displayed for a suf

-

cient amount of time. Therefore, it is recommended that you disable this BIOS

feature for a faster boot-up time.
