CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Essential Handling Precautions
IMPORTANT. Read this page before unpacking your motherboard!
• Power Supply
Be careful! Always ensure that the computer is disconnected from the power supply when
working on the motherboard and its components.
• Static
Static electricity may cause damage to the delicate integrated circuit chips on your motherboard.
Before handling the motherboard outside of its protective packaging, ensure that there is no
static electric charge in your body. To avoid this risk, please observe these simple precautions
while handling the motherboard and other computer components:
1. If possible, wear an anti-static wrist strap. This fits around your wrist and is connected to
a natural earth ground.
2. Touch a grounded or anti-static surface, or a metal fixture such as a pipe or the chassis of
your system, before touching the motherboard.
3. When you have removed the motherboard from its anti-static packaging, try to hold it only
by the edges, without touching any components.
4. Avoid contacting the components on add-on cards, motherboards, and modules with the
golden fingers (gold-colored connectors) which plug into the expansion slots.
5. It is safest to handle system components only by their mounting brackets.
6. Keep components which are not connected to the system in the anti-static packaging
whenever possible.
These precautions help to reduce the risk of static build-up and ensure any static discharge is
harmless to your equipment.
••
• Battery Replacement
••
The battery which holds the system settings memory on your motherboard should not
require replacement for at least five years, and probably much longer. In picture 2.2, it is
located near the bottom right hand corner.
2 INTRODUCTION
Please replace your battery only with the same type, or a similar type recommended by the
manufacturer. If the battery is replaced incorrectly, there is a risk of a short circuit or explosion.
Used batteries should disposed of according to the manufacturers instructions.
••
• Electric Screwdrivers
••
To reduce the risk of damage to the motherboard due to excessive torque, avoid setting
electric screwdrivers above 7.5 kg/cm.
1.2 Checklist: Hardware Required for Setup
It is advisable to have all of these items of hardware available before you unpack your
motherboard from its anti-static packaging and start building your system.
- Computer case and chassis with appropriate power supply.
- (Optional) Internal Peripherals: modem, LAN cards.
1.3 Package Contents

2.3 CPU (Central Processing Unit) Installation
So far you have familiarized yourself with the handling precautions, checked you have all of
the necessary hardware for building your system, inspected the motherboard package contents
and looked at the layout of the motherboard. This chapter will take you step by step through
the process of installing the different hardware devices onto it.
Caution
1. Remember to always make sure the system power is off before installing or removing
any devices.
2. Dont forget the static electricity precautions.
3. Be careful ! Inserting hardware onto your motherboard incorrectly can damage it.
The motherboard has a ZIF Socket 370 which houses the CPU. A fan is necessary for the
CPU to prevent overheating. If there is no fan on it, please purchase one before you turn on
your system.
WARNING! Be sure that sufficient air circulation is available across the processors
passive heatsink. Without sufficient circulation, the processor could overheat and
damage both the processor and the motherboard. You may install an auxiliary fan, if
necessary.
Please follow the steps below to install the CPU:
Step1:
To install the CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover. Locate the ZIF socket and
open it by first pulling the lever sideways away from the socket then upwards to a 90-degree
right angle. Insert the CPU in the correct direction as shown below. The picture below is for
reference only. You should have a CPU fan to cover the face of the CPU. With the added
weight of the CPU fan, no force is required to insert the CPU. Once completely inserted, close
the sockets lever while holding down the CPU.

Step2:
Next, according to the CPU type you install, set JP15 to short pin1 & pin2 for Intel
®
Celeron
TM
and Pentium ® III FC-PGA series CPU, or set JP15 to short pin2 & pin3 for CYRIX Joshua
series CPU. Connect the CPUs fan cable to the CPU-FAN connector indicated on the diagram
below. Ensure that the cable is connected correctly! It will be obvious which way it fits.

2.4 66/100/133MHz System Configuration
The (JP20) allows you to set the FSB (Front Side Bus) to either AUTO/66/100/133MHz
configurations. And through CPU Host/PCI Clock of Frequency/Voltage Control in the
BIOS Setup menu (please refer to page 47). When JP3 is set to 66MHz, you can select the
system bus frequency from 66MHz to 75MHz. When JP3 is set to 100MHz, you can select the
system bus frequency from 100MHz to 150MHz.
This function makes the Keyboard Power Up the system. Set this jumper to Enable if you
would like your Keyboard to Power Up your computer. Then, go to the Integrated Peripherals
in the BIOS Setup Menu (please refer to page 37), and choose the setting you prefer.

2.7 Primary / Secondary IDE Connectors (Two 40-1-pin IDE)
This motherboard supports two 40-pin IDE connectors marked as IDE1 (primary channel)
and IDE2 (secondary channel). Each channel supports two IDE devices, making a total of
four devices.
Connect your Hard Disk (the main one if you are using more than one) to the Master connector
(at the end of the cable) and connect it to the IDE1 (see important note below). If your HDD
supports Ultra DMA/66, you must use an 80-wire cable, otherwise the HDD wont be able to
reach this speed.
If you intend to operate two IDE devices from the same channel, one device must be set to
master mode, the other to slave mode. A Hard Disk, CD ROM or other IDE device can
have either setting, depending on devices jumper. Please refer to the devices manual for
more information.
NOTE:
The Connectors must be attached to the IDE channels the right way round. Make
sure that the red stripe on one edge of the ribbon cable (this may be faint and could
also be a dotted line) is the nearest to PIN 1 (on the left as the motherboard is shown
in the picture below).

2.8 Floppy Disk Drive Connector (34-pin FDC)
This connector supports the floppy disk drive ribbon cable which is one of the items in your
motherboard package. After connecting the single end to the board, connect the two plugs at
the other end to the floppy drives. Remember, as in the last section, the red stripe on the
edge of the ribbon cable must be the nearest to PIN 1, otherwise your connection wont work.
This means it be on the left as the motherboard is shown below.

2.9 Fan Power Connectors
There are three fan power connectors on the motherboard: CPU-FAN, POWER-FAN, and
CASE-FAN. Each connector provides +12V power. The cables can only be attached a certain
way: If you try to put them in the wrong way, they wont fit. These connectors support cooling
fans of 500 mA (6W) or less.

2.10 Wake-on-LAN Connector (3-pin WOL)
This connector connects to LAN cards with a Wake-on-LAN output. The system can be
Powered Up when a wakeup packet or signal is received from the LAN card.
NOTE:This function requires that the Wake-Up by PCI & WOL function in the Power
Management Setup is set to Enabled and that your system has an ATX power supply
with at least 720mA +5V standby power.
The IrDA connector can be configured to support a wireless infrared module. With this module
and application software such as Laplink or Win95 Direct Cable Connection, users can transfer
files to or from laptops (notebooks), PDAs and printers. You must also configure the setting
through UART Mode Select in the Integrated Peripherals (please refer to page 39) to
select IrDA. Connect the Standard IR (SIR) device to the onboard SIR connector according
to the pin definitions. An optional Consumer Infrared (CIR) set connects to the CIR and SIR
connectors simultaneously for both wireless transmitting and remote control functions through
one external infrared module.
