=Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. =Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. =Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

=Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help.

Notice 1

The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Notice 2

Shielded interface cables and A.C. power cord, if any, must be used in order to comply with the emission limits.

MSI Reminds You...

1.Please note that users cannot install OS, either WinME or Win98, in their SATA hard drives. Under these two OSs, SATA can only be used as an ordinary storage device.

2.To create a bootable RAID volume for a Windows 2000 environment, Microsoft’s Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (SP4) is required. As the end user cannot boot without SP4, a combination installation CD must be created before attempting to install the operating system onto the bootable RAID volume.

Label (optional)

MSI Reminds You...

1. Each board will be given a unique 1394 GUID from the manufacturer’s default settings in the system BIOS.

2. Use the flash utility or Live Update from MSI’s website for BIOS update. The 1394 GUID address is burnt in the BIOS core. If the 1394 GUID address is lost due to an unpredictable event, such as replacing a new BIOS chip, users can use the utility from MSI’s website by entering the 1394 GUID address to recover its original one.

Hardware Setup

Central Processing Unit: CPU

The mainboard supports AMD® Athlon64 processor. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called Socket-939 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 have the heat sink and cooling fan, contact your dealer to purchase and install them before turning on the computer.

For the latest information about CPU, please visit http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_cpu_support.php.

MSI Reminds You...

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 the ATX power supply or unplug the power supply’s power cord from grounded outlet first to ensure the safety of CPU.

CPU Installation Procedures for Socket 939

1.Please turn off the power and unplug the power cord before installing the CPU.

2.Pull the lever sideways away from 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 socket and can not be seen. Please note that any violation of the correct installation procedures may cause permanent damages to your mainboard.

Installing AMD Athlon64 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.

MSI Reminds You...

Mainboard photos shown in this section are for demonstration of the cooler installation for Socket 939 CPUs only. The appearance of your mainboard may vary depending on the model you purchase.

1.Detach the shield off the backplate’s

paster.

2.Turn over the mainboard, and install the backplate to the proper position.

3.Turn over the mainboard again, and place the mainboard on the flat surface. Locate the two screw holes of the mainboard.

4.Align the retention mechanism and the backplate.

Fix the retention mechanism and the backplate with two screws.

Hardware Setup

Memory

The mainboard provides 4 slots for 184-pin DDR DIMM (Double In-Line Memory Module) modules and supports the memory size up to 4GB. You can install DDR 333/ 400 modules on the DDR DIMM slots (DIMM 1~4).

DIMM1~DIMM4

(from left to right)

DIMM Module Combination

Install at least one DIMM module on the slots. Each DIMM slot supports up to a maximum size of 1GB. Users can install either single- or double-sided modules to meet their own needs. Users may install memory modules of different type and density on different-channel DDR DIMMs. However, memory modules of the same type and density are required while using dual-channel DDR, or instability may happen.

MSI Reminds You...

- In dual-channel mode, make sure that you install memory modules of the same type and density on DDR DIMMs.

- To enable successful system boot-up, always insert the memory modules into the DIMM1 slots first.

- This mainboard DO NOT support the memory module installed with more than 18 pieces of IC (integrated circuit).

- Do not support three memory modules.

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 24-Pin Power Connector: ATX1

This connector allows you to connect an ATX 24-pin power supply. To connect the ATX 24-pin power supply, make sure the plug 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.

You may use the 20-pin ATX power supply as you like. If you’d like to use the 20-pin ATX power supply, please plug your power supply along with pin 1 & pin 13 (refer to the image at the right hand). There is also a foolproof design on pin 11, 12, 23 & 24 to avoid wrong installation.
