Installation

To avoid damage to your Motherboard, follow these simple rules while handling
this equipment:

Before handling the Motherboard, ground yourself by grasping an unpainted
portion of the system's metal chassis.

Remove the Motherboard from its anti-static packaging. Hold it by the edges and
avoid touching its components.

Check the Motherboard for damage. If any chip appears loose, press carefully to
seat it firmly in its socket.

Installation

Install the Motherboard

Follow the steps below in order to perform the installation of your new
Motherboard.

SY-5SSM

Step 1. Install the CPU

To mount the Pentium® class processor that you have purchased separately, follow these
instructions.

CPU Mount Procedure

1 2

3 4

1. Lift the socket handle up to a vertical position.

2. Align the blunt edge of the CPU with the matching pinhole distinctive edge on the
socket.

3. Seat the processor in the socket completely and without forcing.

4. Then close the socket handle to secure the CPU in place.

Remember to connect the CPU Cooling Fan to the appropriate power
connector (CPUFAN) on the Motherboard. The fan is a key component that

will ensure system stability. The fan prevents overheating, therefore
prolonging the life of your CPU.

available for installation, and a database in HTML format with information on SOYO
Motherboards and other products.

Step 1. Insert the SOYO CD into the CD-ROM drive

The SOYO CD will auto-run, and the SOYO CD Start Up Menu will display as shown
below.

(Manual Selection Menu)

The user's manual files included on the SOYO CD are in PDF (Postscript Document)
format. In order to read a PDF file, the appropriate Acrobat Reader software must be
installed in your system.

Note:

The Start Up program automatically detects if the Acrobat Reader utility is already
present in your system, and otherwise prompts you on whether or not you want to install it.
You must install the Acrobat Reader utility to be able to read the user's manual file. Follow
the instructions on your screen during installation, then once the installation is completed,
restart your system and re-run the SOYO CD.

Step 3. Install Drivers and Utilities

Click the Install Drivers button to display the list of drivers software that can be installed
with your Motherboard. The Start Up program displays the drivers available for the
particular model of Motherboard you own. We recommend that you only install those
drivers.

(Driver Installation Menu)

A short description of all available drivers follows:

Quick Start Guide

Ø SiS 530 VGA drivers

The SiS VGA driver for windows 95/98 must be installed to make use of your on board
VGA function. (For WinNT read the instructions in back of the Manual)

Ø SOYO SpeedPro BusMaster Driver for Windows 95/98

Without the busmaster drivers the CPU will need to be involved every time data is read
from or written to the Harddisk. The busmaster drivers make use of DMA (Direct Memory
Access) to relieve the CPU of this burden, thus speeding up the system.

The SOYO SpeedPro driver makes use of an advanced caching algorithm, which gives it
an advantage over other busmaster drivers.

Note: If you install the SOYO SpeedPro busmaster drivers, you can NOT install

the SiS busmaster drivers.

Ø SiS 530 busmaster drivers

The SiS Busmaster drivers for Windows 95/98 will speed up your harddisk. Only install
ONE type of busmaster driver and first uninstall your previous busmaster drivers before
installing a new version. (For Windows NT read the instructions in the back of the Manual)

SY-5SSM Quick Start Guide

Ø ESS Windows NT drivers (for PCI)

These are the Windows NT drivers for the on board soundchip. Make sure to first install
these drivers before installing the ESS Soundtrack Program. For the Windows 95/98 ESS
drivers please read the installation steps in the back of this manual.

Ø ESS Soundtrack Program (for PCI)

With this application program the user can make use of the on board sound chip. Before
installing the ESS Soundtrack Program, you MUST first install the ESS drivers for
Windows 9x or NT.

Ø SOYO CD Xpress utility

This utility will enhance your CD-ROM Drive data-thoughput by using space on the
Harddisk as cache. This way application programs can access data faster. This utility is
suitable for Windows 95/98.

Select which driver you want to install and click
menu. When the installation program of a driver starts running the SOYO-CD will exit.
After finishing the installation, restart the SOYO-CD and install the next driver.

Note: Once you have selected a driver, the system will automatically exit the SOYO CD to begin the
driver installation program. When the installation is complete, most drivers require to restart your system
before they can become active.
