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:

(E) Notices for Assembling Computers:

1. Cases should be made of iron or other metal that has good electric conductivity.

2. Cylinders in a case should be made of metal, and as having a mainboard mounted
in a case, make sure screws are all utilized and fastened on a mainboard.

3. An I/O shielding should be contacted with I/O metallic parts of a mainboard.

4. Cables should appropriately be arranged and fixed in a case. Follow instructions:

Ø Leave IDE cables not crossed upon CPU and SDRAM;
Ø Leave power cables minimum in length, and not crossed upon a mainboard;
Ø Leave CPU fan cables minimum in length, and not near CPU;
Ø Leave cables on panels and other spare cables tied in a computer case.

5. Make sure an EMI shielding attached to a case has properly been installed.

6. Make sure a 5.25" or 3.5" FDD and screws are fastened to an EMI shielding.

7. Make sure a case is closely in contact with EMI connected points.

8. Make sure there is no cleft in a case which is not deformed.

9. Make sure a PCI or AGP door is bound to a case.

10. Make sure cables of other devices (fans or some others) are fixed in a case.

1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 To Different Users

First-Time DIY System Builder

Welcome to the DIY world! Building your own computer system is not as diffi­cult as you may think. To make your first computer DIY experience successful,
right from the start, we have designed the 3.1 Hardware Installation section
in a step-by-step fashion for all the first-time DIY system builders. Prior to instal­lation, we also suggest you to read the whole manual carefully to gain a com­plete understanding of your new Shuttle MK40V/MK40VN mainboard.

Experienced DIY User

Congratulate on your purchase of the Shuttle MK40V/MK40VN mainboard.
You will find that installing your new Shuttle MK40V/MK40VN mainboard is
just easy. Bundled with an array of onboard functions, the highly-integrated
MK40V/MK40VN mainboard provides you with a total solution to build the
most stable and reliable system. Refer to sections 3.2 Jumper Settings and
Chapter 4 Drivers/Software Utilities to find out how to get the best out of
your new mainboard. Chapter 5 BIOS Setup also contains the relevant infor­mation on how to tune up your system to achieve higher performance.

System Integrator

You have wisely chosen Shuttle MK40V/MK40VN to construct your system.
Shuttle MK40V/MK40VN incorporates all the state-of-the-art technology of
the KM400 chipset from VIA. It integrates the most advanced functions you
can find to date in a compact micro ATX board.

This manual is all-purpose for two kinds of mainboards: MK40V and
MK40VN. The main difference between them is that MK40VN is
equipped with an onboard LAN. In the manual, if there are some
standards, characteristics, equipment, or software adopted only by
MK40VN, it will be highlighted in brackets.

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 AthlonXP 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.

S

4. Slightly push the AMD AthlonXP 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 AthlonXP 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 hardware 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 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. Please refer to the following diagram.

- 12 -

Step 2.

Set Jumpers

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

2. CPU Frequency

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 any one or two
DIMM banks. Note that SDRAM modules are directional and will not go in the
DIMM banks if they are not properly oriented. After the module is fully inserted
into the DIMM bank, lift the clips of both sides of the DIMM bank 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 -

Step 5

Mount the Mainboard on the Computer Chassis

1. You may find there are a lot of mounting holes on your computer chassis
and mainboard. To match the holes on both properly, the key point is to
make the back panel of the mainboard in a close fit with your system case,as
shown below.

2. Position the studs between the chassis and the mainboard. The studs are
used to fix the mainboard and to keep a certain distance between the them,
for avoiding any electrical shorts in-between.

(If your computer case is already equipped with mounting studs, you need
to tighten the screws to attach the mainboard.)

Note: In most computer housings, you can find 4 or more holes to place studs

for fixing the mainboard. If there aren't enough matching holes, screw
at least 4 studs to ensure the proper attachment of the mainboard.
