Step 1

CPU Installation:

This mainboard supports Socket 775 Prescott/Tegas Processors (CPU).
To install, follow the steps outlined below. Note the CPU orientation carefully
when you insert it into the socket.

Caution : This 775 pin socket is fragile and easily damaged.

Always use extreme care when installing a CPU and limit the
number of times that you remove or change the CPU.

1. Remove the protective cover.

2. Unlock the socket lever and lift it to 90-degrees (be careful not to touch the

socket pins during this process).

- 12 -

3. Orientate the CPU and socket, aligning the yellow triangle on the corner of

the CPU with the triangle on the socket. Gently insert. Take care not to place
any sideways force on the CPU when inserting, as the socket is fragile and
easily damaged.

4. Lower the CPU socket lever and lock in place.

Note : The CPU might be damaged

if you do not match the CPU
socket Pin 1 and cut edge well.

5. The Socket 775 processor requires a heat sink and cooling fan to run effi-

ciently, cool and stable. If you do not receive a bundled heat sink and fan
when you purchase you CPU, it is essential that you acquire one.

- 13 -

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

Caution: If you did not place the battery apropriately, which may cause

risk of explosion. please pefer to the related rule for the dis­pose of used batteries.

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.

Do not remove memory modules while DIMM LED is on. It might cause short
or other unexpected damages due to the 2.6V stand by voltage. Remove memory
modules only when AC Power cord is disconnected.

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 pro-

vided 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 periph-

eral 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.

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 backpanel of
the mainboard in a close fit with your system
case.

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 : 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 6

Connect Front-Panel Switches/LEDs/
USBs/1394/Aux-In/Mic-In/Line-Out

You can find there are several different cables
already existing in the system case and origin
atinting from the computer's front-panel devic
es (HDLED, GLED, USB4/5, Aux-In, Mic-In,
Line-Out, 1394 devices etc.) These cables serve
to connect the HDLED, GLED, USB4/5, Aux-In,
Mic-In, Line-Out or 1394 connectors to the
mainboard's front-panel connectors group, 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 : 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 FORM­AT 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.

- 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 FS58 bundled CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.

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

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

3. Choose "Install SIS IDE Driver" and complete it.

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

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

6. Choose "Install Realtek Audio Driver" and complete it.

7. Choose "Install SIS USB2.0 Driver" and complete it.

8. Choose "Install DirectX9 Utility" and complete it.

9. Exit from the autorun drivers installation program.

A traditional ATX system remains in the power-off stage when AC power re­sumes from power failure. However, it is inconvenient for a network server or
workstation if there is not an UPS to execute power-on. Thus, this motherboard
supports an AC Power Auto Recovery function to solve this problem. You may
enable the function, "PWRON After PWR-Fail," in the sub-menu of "Power
Management Setup" within the BIOS setup program.

Note 1: The ATX power connector is directional and will not go in

unless the guides match perfectly, making sure that pin#1 is
properly positioned.

Note 2: Make sure the latch of the ATX power connector clicks into

place to ensure a solid attachment.

Note 3: Your ATX power supply must be supplied to ACPI+5V stand-

by power and at least 720mA compatible.

Note 4: Make sure your power supply have enough power for higher

speed processor installed.

5 BIOS SETUP

FS58 BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the
basic system configuration. This information is stored in battery-backed RAM
so that it retains the Setup information even if the system power is turned off.

The system BIOS is managing and executing a variety of hardware related func­tions in the system, including:

System date and time
Hardware execution sequence
Power management functions
Allocation of system resources

5.1 Enter the BIOS

To enter the BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) utility, follow these steps:

Step 1. Power on the computer, and the system will perform its

POST (Power-On Self Test) routine checks.

Step 2. Press <Del> key immediately, or at the following message:

Press DEL to enter SETUP”,or simultaneously press <Ctrl>,
<Alt>, <Esc> keys

Note 1. If you miss trains of words meationed in step2 (the message disa-

ppears before you can respond) and you still wish to enter BIOS
Setup, restart the system and try again by turning the computer
OFF and ON again or by pressing the <RESET>switch located
at the computer's front-panel. You may also reboot by simulta­neously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt>,<Del> keys.

Note 2. If you do not press the keys in time and system does not boot, the

screen will prompt an error message, and you will be given the
following options:

" Press F1 to Continue, DEL to Enter Setup "

Step 3. As you enter the BIOS program, the CMOS Setup Utility will

prompt you the Main Menu, as shown in the next section.
