WARNING

Thermal issue is highly essential for processors with a speed of 600MHz and above.

Hence, we recommend you to use the CPU fan qualified by AMD or motherboard

manufacturer. Meanwhile, please make sure CPU and fan are securely fastened well.

Otherwise, improper fan installation not only gets system unstable but also could

damage both CPU and motherboard because insufficient thermal dissipation.

If you would like to know more about thermal topic please see AMD website for

detailed thermal requirement through the address:

SO CKET 462

ASSE MBLED I N MALAYS IA

Lever

Blank

SOCKET462

Install the CPU:

1. Locate the CPU ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) socket on the upper-right sector of your mainboard (between the back-panel connectors and the

DIMM memory slots).

2. Pull the CPU ZIF socket lever slightly sideways away from the socket to unlock the lever, and then bring it to an upwardly vertical position.

3. Place your AMD 462 Athlon/Duron processor in the socket A. Note that the CPU’s edges have been purposely designed non-symmetrically to prevent from inserting the processor in the wrong direction. The following diagram demonstrates the correct placement of the CPU in the ZIF socket. You can see that the two blunt-edged corners should face towards the socket-lever.

4. Slightly push the AMD 462 Athlon/Duron processor into the socket without applying excessive force while making sure there is no gap between CPU and socket. Then lower the socket-lever all the way down to its horizontal position and lock it to secure the CPU in place.

5. The AMD 462 Athlon/Duron processor requires a set of heatsink/fan to ensure proper cooling of the processor. If heatsink/fan have not been already mounted on your CPU, you must purchase the heatsink/fan separately and have it installed. Plug the cable throught 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 monitoring 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 2pin 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. Please refer to the following diagram.

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:

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 3.2 Jumper Settings will provide detailed information on how to configure your mainboard manually.

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.

- 14 -

Page 18

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 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: In most computer housings, you will be able to find 4 or more

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.

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 parti-

tion 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: DOS 6.2x and Windows 95A can only support up to 2.1GB of

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 FORM-

AT C: /S command.

Note: FORMAT C: /S can transfer all the necessary system files into the

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.

- 20 -

Page 24

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 FS40 bundled CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. The

autorun program will display the drivers main installation window on screen.

2. Choose "Install SIS Chipset Driver" and complete it.

3. Choose "Install Audio Device Driver" and complete it.

4. Choose "Install VGA Device Driver" and complete it.

5. Choose "Install LAN Driver" and complete it.

6. Exit from the autorun drivers installation program.

# Please refer to section Chapter 4 Software Utility to install driver.

3.2 Jumper Settings

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!

1. Do not remove the mainboard from its antistatic protective packaging until you are ready to install it.

2. Carefully hold the mainboard by its edges and avoid touching its components. When putting the mainboard down, place it on top of its original packaging film, on an even surface, and components side up.

3. Wear an antistatic wrist strap or take other suitable measures to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) whenever handling this equipment.

User Set CPU Fan

Enable you to choose one or both specific fan for further setting. " The choice: Fan1, Fan2, Fan3, or Fan1 & Fan3.

Fan Speed Up When CPU Temp

Enable 3 phase smart control to the Selected fan. This feature ranges from 40°C to 52°C, in an increment of 4°C. The default temperature is at 48°C.

" The choice: 40°C, 44°C, 48°C, or 52°C.

Take our default Setting for example, 1st and 2nd phase Variable Fan Speed and CPU temperature Control is as defined by "Fan Speed Up When CPU Temp". If actual CPU temp (reported by Bios) stays below

¡C

C then CPU fan speed will run at a quiet mode (1st phase) of

approximately 2000 RPM.

But when the actual CPU temp goes above the pre-selected 48°C temperature threshold, then CPU fan speed will automatically engage into normal mode (2nd phase) of about 3000 RPM. Automated by the Smart Bios feature, this increase of fan rotation speed will effectively cool down the CPU temperature. And when the CPU temperature drops back below the 48°C temperature threshold, CPU fan speed will again automatically shift back to the quiet mode (1st phase) of about 2000 RPM in order to reduce fan noise level.

- 75 -

Page 79

Fail-safe mode (3rd phase) Variable Fan Speed and CPU temperature Control is as predefined at 56°C. Where in the event of system and CPU operating under extreme working conditions, and if CPU temperature is raised above 56°C then the Smart Bios will engage the CPU fan in Fail-safe mode to rotate at about 4500 RPM. Please note that the higher the fan speed, the fan cooler will be become slightly noisier in order to compensate for the increase in CPU temperature.

Note: Please disable CPU Fan AutoGuardian feature, if you wish to use

other K7 cooler, allowing the CPU fan to run at its default speed.
