Preface
About This Manual
This manual is written for system houses, PC technicians and
knowledgeable PC end users. It provides information for the installation and use of SUPER P6DKF/P6DKS/P6DKE/P6SKS/P6SKE
motherboard. SUPER P6DKF/P6DKS/P6DKE supports Pentium II
300/266/233 MHz. SUPER P6SKS/P6SKE supports 200/180/166/
150 MHz Pentium Pro and 300/266/233 MHz Pentium II processors.
The Pentium II processor with the Dual Independent Bus Architecture is housed in a new package technology called the Single Edge
Contact (S.E.C.) cartridge. This new cartridge package and its associated "Slot 1" infrastructure will provide the headroom for future
high-performance processors.
Manual Organization
Chapter 1, Introduction, describes the features, specifications and
performance of the SUPER P6DKF/P6DKS/P6DKE/P6SKS/P6SKE
system board, provides detailed information about the chipset, and
offers warranty information.
Refer to Chapter 2, Installation, for instructions on how to install the
Pentium II processor, the retention mechanism, and the heat sink
support. This chapter provides you with the instructions for handling static-sensitive devices. Read this chapter when you want to
install or remove SIMM memory modules and to mount the system
board in the chassis. Also refer to this chapter to connect the floppy
and hard disk drives, IDE interfaces, parallel port, serial ports, as
well as the cables for the power supply, reset cable, Keylock/Power
LED, speaker and keyboard.
