Step 1
CPU Installation:
This mainboard supports Intel Pentium 4/Celeron, Socket 478 series CPU.
Please follow the step as below to finish CPU installation.
Be careful of CPU orientation when you plug it into CPU socket.
1. Pull up the CPU socket lever and up to 90-degree angle.
CPU socket lever up to
90 degree
2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for a black dot or cut edge on the
CPU upper interface. Match Pin 1 and cut edge, then insert the CPU into
the socket.
CPU pin 1 and cut edge
- 12 -
3. Press down the CPU socket lever and finish CPU installation.
Note: Note:
Note: If you do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and CPU cut edge
Note: Note:
well, it may damage the CPU.
4. The Intel Pentium 4/Celeron processor requires a set of heatsink/fan to en
sure proper cooling of the processor. If heatsink/fan have not been already
bundled with your CPU, you must purchase the heatsink/fan separately and
have it installed. Plug the cable through the heatsink/fan in the CPU fan
power connector located nearby. Note that there are several types of CPU
fan connectors. Normally, if your mainboard supports the hard ware moni
toring function, a 3-pin fan power connector should allow your system to
detect the CPU fan's speed. The CPU fan can also run with a 2-pin fan
power connector, however, detection of CPU fan's speed is not supported.
Another type of CPU fan may feature a large 4-pin fan power connector,
which does not support CPU fan's speed detection and must be directly
connected to the system's power supply unit.

Step 2.
Set Jumpers
This mainboard is jumperless! The default jumper settings have been set
for the common usage standard of this mainboard. Therefore, you do not
need to reset the jumpers unless you require special adjustments as any of
the following cases:
1. Clear CMOS
For first-time DIY system builders, we recommend that you do not change
the default jumper settings if you are not totally familiar with the mainboard
configuration procedures. The factory-set default settings are tuned for
optimum system performance. For the advanced users who wish to
customize their system, section
information on how to configure your mainboard manually.
3.2 Jumper Settings3.2 Jumper Settings
3.2 Jumper Settings will provide detailed
3.2 Jumper Settings3.2 Jumper Settings
Step 3
Install DDR SDRAM System Memory
To install memory, insert DDR SDRAM memory module(s) in DIMM slot(s).
Note that DDR SDRAM modules are directional and will not go in the DIMM
slots unless properly oriented. After the module is fully inserted into the
DIMM slots, lift the clips of both sides of the DIMM slot to lock the module in
place.
DDR SDRAM

Step 4
Install Internal Peripherals in System Case
Before you install and connect the mainboard into your system case, we
recommend that you first assemble all the internal peripheral devices into
the computer housing, including but not limited to the hard disk drive (IDE/
HDD), floppy disk drive (FDD), CD-ROM drive, and ATX power supply unit.
This will greatly facilitate in making the connections to the mainboard described below.
To install IDE & FDD drives, follow this procedure:
1. Set the required jumpers on each device according to the instructions
provided by the manufacturer. (IDE devices, HDD, and CD-ROM, have to
set jumpers to Master or Slave mode depending on whether you install
more than one device of each kind.)
2. Connect IDE cable and FDD cable on the back-panel of the internal
peripheral devices to the corresponding headers on board. Note that the
cable should be oriented with its colored stripe (usually red or magenta)
connected to pin#1 both on the mainboard IDE or FDD connector and on
the device as well.
3. Connect an available power cable from your system power supply unit
to the back-panel of each peripheral device. Note that the power cable is
directional and cannot fit in if not properly positioned.
- 15 -
Step 5
Mount the Mainboard on the Computer Chassis
1. You may find that there are a lot of different mounting hole positions
both on your computer chassis and on the mainboard. To choose
correct mounting holes, the key point is to keep the back-panel of the
mainboard in a close fit with your system case, as shown below.
2. After deciding on the proper mounting holes, position the studs between
the frame of the chassis and the mainboard. The studs are used to fix
the mainboard and to keep a certain distance between the system's
chassis and the mainboard, in order to avoid any electrical shorts
between the board and the metal frame of the chassis. (If your computer
case is already equipped with mounting studs, you will need to tighten
screws to attach the mainboard.)
Note:Note:
Note:In most computer housings, you will be able to find 4 or more
Note:Note:
attachment points to install mounting studs and then fix the
mainboard. If there aren't enough matching holes, then make sure
to install at least 4 mounting studs to ensure proper attachment of
the mainboard.

Connect Front Panel Switches/LEDs/Speaker/USB
You can find there are several different cables already existing in the system
case and originatinting from the computer's front-panel devices (HDD LED,
Power LED, Reset Switch, or USB devices etc.) These cables serve to
connect the front-panel switches, LEDs, and USB connectors to the
mainboard's front-panel connectors group (JP6, JP7, JP12), as shown
below.

Step 12
First Time System Boot Up
To assure the completeness and correctness of your system installation, you
may check the above installation steps once again before you boot up your
system for the first time.
1. Insert a bootable system floppy disk (DOS 6.2x, Windows 95/98/NT, or
others) which contains FDISK and FORMAT utilities into the FDD.
2. Turn on the system power.
3. First, you must use the FDISK utility to create a primary partition of the
hard disk. You can also add an extended partition if your primary
partition does not use all of the available hard disk space. If you choose
to add an extended partition, you will have to create one or more logical
partitions to occupy all the space available to the extended partition. The
FDISK utility will assign a drive letter (i.e., C:, D:, E:,...) to each partition
which will be shown in the FDISK program. After FDISK procedure,
reboot your system by using the same system floppy disk.
Note:Note:
Note:DOS 6.2x and Windows 95A can only support up to 2.1GB of
Note:Note:
HDD partition. If you use the FDISK utility with one of the operating
systems mentioned above, you can only install your HDD into
partitions no larger than 2.1GB each.
4. Now, use the FORMAT utility to format all the partitions you've created.
When formatting the primary partition (C:), make sure to use the FORMAT C: /S command.
Note:Note:
Note:FORMAT C: /S can transfer all the necessary system files into the
Note:Note:
primary partition of your hard disk. Then, your HDD will become
a bootable drive.
5. Install all the necessary drivers for CD-ROM, Mouse, etc.
6. Setup the complete operating system according to your OS installation
guide.
- 22 -
Step 13
Install Drivers & Software Components
Please note that all the system utilities and drivers are designed for Win 9x/
2000/ME/XP/NT operating systems only. Make sure your operating system
is already installed before running the drivers installation CD-ROM programs.
1. Insert the FB51 bundled CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. The
autorun program will display the drivers main installation window on
screen.
2. Choose "Install Intel Chipset Driver" and complete it.
3. Choose "Install Intel Ultra ATA Driver" and complete it.
4. Choose "Install VGA Device Driver" and complete it.
5. Choose "Install Audio Driver" and complete it.
6. Choose "Install USB2.0 Driver" and complete it.
7. Choose "Install LAN Driver" and complete it.
8. Exit from the autorun drivers installation program.
Several hardware settings are made through the use of mini jumpers to connect jumper pins on the mainboard. Pin #1 could be located at any corner of
each jumper, you just find the location with a white right angle which stands
for pin 1#. There are several types of pin 1# shown as below:
3-pin and multi (>3) pin jumpers shown as following:
Pin #1 to the left:
Pin #1 on the top:
Pin #1 to the right:
Pin #1 on the bottom:
Jumpers with two pins are shown as for Close [On] or for
Open [Off]. To Short jumper pins, simply place a plastic mini jumpers over
the desired pair of pins.
Caution!Caution!

Advanced Chipset Features
This section allows you to configure the system based on the specific
features of the installed chipset. This chipset manages bus speeds and access
to system memory resources, such as DRAM and the external cache. It also
coordinates communications between the conventional ISA bus and the PCI
bus. It states that these items should never need to be altered.
The default settings have been chosen because they provide the best
operating conditions for your system. If you discovered that data was being
lost while using your system, you might consider making any changes.
