2-1 775-pin Prescott CPU and Socket LGA 775

2-1.1 To Identify a 775-pin Prescott CPU

The pin-pad side of 775 CPU

This yellow triangle denotes Pad 1 of CPU.

LGA 775 CPU (with heat glue on surface)

2-1.2 To install 775-pin Prescott CPU into Socket LGA 775

1. LGA 775 socket is safeguarded by a metal cover and a protective cap on top. Never remove the protective cap before CPU has already been installed into socket.

(Press down this tongue to turn up the cover.)

(The protective cap is protecting LGA 775 socket-pins from unnecessary exposure.)

The Heat Glue on surface is for better heat dispersion

The yellow triangle denotes location of Pad 1.

(The Protrusion for turning up the protective cover and cap.)

(Turn up the lever this way to unlock the metal cover.)

2. Pull sideway the socket lever and turn it up so as to unlock the metal cover from the socket base.

3. Since the metal cover together with the cap is unlocked from the socket base now, use a fingertip to pull at the protrusion at one end of cap so as to turn the cover and cap up.

4. The cover and the cap are turned open now, revealing the socket-pins. We should be aware that the pins are so delicate they are forbidden to be touched with anything other than a 775-pin CPU.

(The triangle here

(Turn open the cover and cap this way to reveal the socket pins.)

Attention: The pins are so delicate that they are forbidden to be touched with anything other than a 775-pin CPU.

(The socket pins)

denotes Socket Pin1 location.)

15

SL-915GPro-FGR

5. As soon as the Cover and Cap is lifted up, place down the 775 CPU gently into 775 Socket with Pad1 matching Socket Pin1.

(This triangle on socket denotes Socket Pin1 location.)

(This yellow triangle on CPU denotes Pad1of CPU.)

6. When you have made sure the 775-CPU is properly laid down, you should now return the Metal Cover to Socket so as to fix down the CPU.

7. After returning the Metal Cover to Socket, pull back the Socket Lever to Socket until it gets back to the latch.

8. Since the Metal Cover is returned to Socket, use a fingertip to lift and remove the protective Cap for the Cooling Fan installation.

(The Cap is lifted up away from the

(The 775 CPU)

Cover and can be removed now.)

(Attention: Never remove this Protective Cap if CPU is not in Socket.)

(Lever returned to Latch)

(The Metal cover)

(The 775-Socket)

9. CPU is installed, Metal cover fixed to socket, Protective Cap removed, we should install CPU Cooling Fan now.

(CPU installed, Metal Cover fixed to Socket, and Protective Cap removed, we should install CPU Cooling Fan now.)

( Cooling Fan Support Hole)

10. Insert the 4 Fan Supporters into the Support Holes on board, and then connect the Fan Power cable to the Fan Connector on board.

(The Fan cable is connected to Fan connector on board.)

(775 Cooling Fan Supporter)

CPU Fan and Fan Power cable are set up.

Chapter 2 Hardware Setup

2-1.3 775-Prescott CPU Installation with Hyper-threading

• 775-Prescott CPU also supports hyper-threading technology.

• After installation of 775-Prescott CPU, you should also install Win-

dows XP to enable Hyper-threading dual-in-one CPU function. Win98/

Me/2K do not support Hyper-threading dual-in-one CPU function.

GHz GHz

( If Hyper-threading CPU is installed successfully with O/S Win XP, the O/S will enable the dual-in-one CPU function.)

SL-915GPro-FGR

2-2 Memory Installation

2-2.1 To Install DDR SDRAM Module

• DDR DIMM slot has 184 pins and one notch. Insert a DDR SDRAM

vertically into the 184-pin slot with the notch-to-rib matching.

• This mainboard supports up to 4GB unbuffered Dual-channel DDR

400/333 SDRAM, with 4 DDR DIMM slots on board. Do not insert

other type of modules into these slots.

2-2.2 Dual Channel Memory Features

• Dual Channel Memory Configuration is formed by couple of identical

DDR SDRAMs.

• Matched DIMMs need to have identical density, DRAM technology,

DRAM bus width, and equal number of memory banks.

• This series supports up to 4GB unbuffered Dual Channel DDR 400/

333 SDRAM, with 4 DDR DIMM slots on board.

type of modules into these slots.

• The dual memory controller can double the DDR memory bandwidth

up to 6.4GB/s with DDR400, 5.4GB/s with DDR333..

2-2.3 To Remove a DIMM

Power off the system first, and then press down the holding latches on both sides of slot to release the module from the DIMM slot.

Do not insert other

2-3 IDEand IDE RAID Connectors Installation

To install IDE Connector, you may connect the blue connector of IDE cable toIDE1 on board, and then connect the gray connect to your slave device and the black connector to your master device.

To install IDE RAID Connector, you may connect the blue connector of IDE cable to the primary (IDE2) or secondary (IDE3) connector on board, and then connect the gray connector to your slave device and the black connector to your master device. If you install two hard disks, you must configure the second drive to Slave mode by setting its jumpers correctly. Please refer to your hard disk documentation for the jumper settings.

Attention: On this Mainboard, only are IDE2 and IDE3 supported by VT8212F to set up totally 4 RAID hard Disks.

ATX V2.03 Power Supply is strongly recommended for mainboard running with 2GHz or higher CPU.

To set up Power Supply on this mainboard:

1. Connect the on-board Main Power Connector (20-pin) to the Main Power Connector (20-pin) of an ATX Power Supply which can be of the latest version 2.03 model, and then connect the square-shaped +12V Power Connector on board to the square-shaped +12V Power Connector of the Power Supply.

Warning: Both the Main Power Connector and the +12V Power Connector should be connected to Power Supply; otherwise, the system may either not start or damaged.

2. This ATX Power Supply should be able to provide at least 720mA/ +5V standby power for Wake On Lan function.

2-7 Jumper Setting : How to set up jumper

How to tackle the Jumpers:

123

A 3-pin Jumper

If a pin-header (of 2 or more pins) is designed in such a way that its pins can be closed or linked together to set up a specific function, is called a jumper in this manual.

this header

A 2-pin Jumper Cap

The conductor inside the cap links two header-pins together.

• A Jumper is usually but not necessarily given a “JpX” legend.

• In the Jumper setting diagram, the jumper pins covered with

black marks stand for closed pins with jumper cap.

Pin 2-3 closed

Pin 1-2 closed

• Do not remove any jumper cap when power is on. Always make sure the power is off before changing any jumper settings. Otherwise, the mainboard will be damaged.

2-7.2 JBAT1: Clear CMOS

When you have problem with rebooting your system, you can clear CMOS data and restore it to default value. To clear CMOS with Jumper JBAT1, please follow the steps below:

1. Power off system.

2. Set JBAT1 to Pin 2-3 closed.

3. After 2 or 3 seconds, restore the JBAT1 setting to Pin1-2 closed.

4. CMOS data are restored to default now. Remember never clear CMOS when system power is on.

2-8.2 USB Ports and USB Pin-headers

This series provides four USB ports on board supporting various USB devices. In addition, two USB pin-headers are added on board to provide expansion of four more optional USB ports by using two additional USB cables. Users can order the optional USB cables from your mainboard dealer or vendor.

When plugging the USB cable to USB Header, users must make sure the red wire is connected to Pin 1. All 8 USB ports are compliant with 1.1 / 2.0 USB Bus. USB 2.0 supports Windows 2000 and up (no support for Windows 9X/ME). Please see Chapter 3 for USB2.0 Installation.

Chapter 2 Hardware Setup

2-8.8 External Audio Connector

This Mainboard is designed with an External Audio connector J1 which provides connection to your chassis.

1. When J1 is set to 5-6 closed and 9-10 closed, this default setting disables this connector and leaves the Back Panel Audio enabled.

2. To use this Front Panel Audio Connector, please open all pins of J1 and connect it to your chassis.

2-8.9 1394A Connector

• 2 IEEE 1394A ports supported by IEEE1394A controller VT6307

• Supporting 400/200/100 Mbits transfer rate.

• PCI-bus based open host controller, compliant with IEEE 1394a-2000

standard for high performance serial bus
