Step 1
CPU Installation:
This mainboard supports Intel Pentium 4/Celeron Socket 478 series CPU. Please follow the steps as follows to finish CPU installation.
Note the CPU orientation when you plug it into CPU socket.
1. Pull up the CPU socket lever to 90-degree angle.
CPU socket lever up to 90-degree angle
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, and insert the CPU into the
socket.
CPU Pin 1 and cut edge
3. Press down the CPU socket lever and finish CPU installation.
Note: The CPU might be damaged if you
do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and cut edge well.
4. Intel Pentium 4/Celeron processors require a set of heatsink and fan to cool down the processor. You need to purchase a heatsink and fan if they are not bundled with your CPU. Required is that install the set and plug its cable in the CPU fan power connector. Note that there are kinds of CPU fan connec­tors. Normally, if your mainboard supports a hardware monitoring function, a 3-pin fan power connector can have your system detect the CPU fan's spe­ed. A CPU fan with a 2-pin or 4-pin fan power connector does not support the detection of the CPU fan's speed, and must directly be 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 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), CD­ROM drive, and ATX power supply unit. This will greatly facilitate in making the connections to the mainboard described below.
To install IDE 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 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 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.

Page 19
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 : 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.

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. Turn on the system power then press "del" to enter BIOS. Please set "CD-ROM" as the first boot device. Insert the operating system setup CD disk into CD-ROM. Now you may save & exit the BIOS setup. System will restart automatically.
2. After restart, just choose start computer with CD-ROM support. Then the CD disk will bring up continuous message that teach you how to get your HDD ready for operating system setup such as HDD partition creation & format.
3. Once the C: disk's format is done, you can begin to install operating system.
4. Setup the complete operating system according to your OS installation guide.

3.2 Jumper Settings
Several hardware settings are made through the use of jumper caps to connect jumper pins to the mainboard. Pin #1 could be located at any corner of each jumper; you just find a location marked with a while right angle, which stands for pin1#. There are several types of pin 1# shown as below:
3-pin and multi-pin (>3) jumpers show as follows:
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 jumper cap 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 the top of its original packaging film and 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.

5 BIOS SETUP
FT62 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
Note1. If you miss trains of words mentioned in step2 (the message dis-
appears 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 simulta­neously.
Note2. 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.

@ 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.
Warning: Over CPU DDR clock,voltage or timing(O.C) may damage
hardware. Strongly recommend to set only for expert. Restore default setting to handle unstable system caused by O.C .If O.C cause system boot fail, you must clear cmos and load bios default setting to recovery system.
