3.1 Step-by-Step Installation

Accessories Of MS51/MS51N

- 11 -

Step 1

CPU Installation:

This mainboard supports Intel ® Pentium ® 4 , 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.

- 12 -

3. Press down the CPU socket lever and finish CPU installation.

Note: If you do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and CPU cut

edge well, it may damage the CPU.

- 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

2. BIOS Write Protection

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.

4. Connect serial port cable to on board COM2 header. And install the other

side of CMOS cable to back-panel with a screw.

- 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 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 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 MS51/MS51N 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. (MS51N only)

6. Exit from the autorun drivers installation program.

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