Getting Help
Troubleshooting
Your Premio system is designed to provide years of trouble-free
performance. If you have a problem with your system, you may wish
to check the information in this section for a quick solution.
Monitor Does Not Work
If your monitor appears not to be working properly:
Check that the monitor’s power cable is securely attached to
the monitor and to an outlet that is receiving power.
Check that the monitor’s video cable is securely attached to the
monitor and to the system unit’s video card connector.
Check that the monitor’s power switch is on.
Adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast controls.
If possible, substitute another monitor that is in good working
order. If the substitute works, your monitor may need repair or
replacement.
10 Premio System Manual
Keyboard Does Not Work
If the NumLock indicator in the upper right corner of the keyboard
does not light when the system powers up, or the keyboard does not
work:
Check that the keyboard cable is securely attached to the
system unit’s keyboard connector.
If possible, substitute another keyboard that is in good working
order. If the substitute works, your keyboard may need
replacement.

move the mouse:
Check that the mouse cable is securely attached to the mouse
connector on the system unit.
Disassemble the mouse and clean the roller ball.
Getting Help 11
System Unit Problems
The fan inside the system unit should make a low, steady sound
when operating properly.
If the fan is totally silent:
Check that the system power cord is securely attached to the
back of the system unit and to a power outlet. Verify that the
outlet has power.
If possible, substitute another power cord that is in good
working order. If the substitute works, replace your power
cord.
If the fan makes excessive noise:
Turn off the system, open the system unit case, and inspect the
fan for any obstructions.
Turn on the system and listen closely to the fan. If the noise
comes from inside the fan housing, your power supply may
need replacement.
Hard Drive Problems
Your hard drive should make a slight whirring sound when operating
properly.
If the drive is totally silent:
Turn off the system, open the system unit case, and check that
the power cable between the power supply and the hard drive
is securely attached at both ends. If it is, your hard drive may
be defective.
If the hard drive makes excessive noise:
Turn off the system, open the system unit case, and remove the
hard drive power cable connector from the hard drive. Then
turn the system back on. If the noise disappears, your hard
drive may be defective.
If you have more than one hard drive, repeat the same
procedure for each drive.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Central Processing Unit: CPU
The mainboard operates with Intel® Pentium® 4 processor. The mainboard
uses a CPU socket called Socket 423 for easy CPU installation. The CPU
should always have a Heat Sink and a cooling fan attached to prevent
overheating.
3. Press the lever down to
complete the installation.
2 . Locate Pin 1 in the socket
and look for the white dot or

• CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure
The mainboard CPU Bus Frequency can be set through BIOS setup.

• Fan Power Connectors: CPUFAN/PSFAN/SYSFAN
These connectors support system cooling fan with + 12V. It supports three pin head connector. When connecting the wire to the
connector, 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 your mainboard has System Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially designed
fan with speed sensor to take advantage of this function.
For fans with fan speed sensor, every rotation of the fan will send out 2
pulses. System Hardware Monitor will count and report the fan rotation
speed.
Note: Always consult vendor for proper CPU cooling fan.
