Chapter 2: Setting up

2.1 Before you begin

This chapter explains how to install motherboard components
including CPUs, memory modules, and PCI cards. There are
also instructions in this section for installing SATA, SCSI, and
IDE hard drives.

Careful attention should be given to the precautions men­tioned in this section when setting up your system.

2.1.1 Work area

Make sure you have a stable, clean working environment.
Dust and dirt can get into components and cause malfunc­tions. Use containers to keep small components separated.
Putting all small components in separate containers prevents
them from becoming lost. Adequate lighting and proper tools
can prevent you from accidentally damaging the internal
components.

2.1.2 Tools

The following tools will be required to complete the installa­tions described in this chapter.

• A cross head (Phillips) screwdriver

• A grounding strap and/or anti static pad

Most of the electrical and mechanical connectors in your sys­tem can be disconnected using your fingers. It is recom­mended that you do not use needle-nosed pliers to remove
connectors as these can damage the soft metal or plastic
parts of the connectors.

2.1 Before you begin

12 Chapter 2: Setting up

2.1.3 Precautions

Components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged
by static electricity. Working on a system that is connected to
a power supply can be extremely dangerous. Follow the
guidelines below to avoid damage to the Transport TX46 or
injury to yourself.

• Disassembly of this system should only be attempted

by experienced engineers.

• Ground yourself properly before removing the top

cover of the system. Unplug the power from the
power supply and then touch a safely grounded
object to release static charge (i.e. power supply
case). If available, wear a grounded wrist strap. Alter­natively, discharge any static electricity by touching
the bare metal chassis of the unit case, or the bare
metal body of any other grounded appliance.

• Avoid touching motherboard components, IC chips,

connectors, memory modules, and leads.

• The motherboard is pre-installed in the system.

When removing the motherboard, always place it on
a grounded anti-static surface until you are ready to
reinstall it.

• Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do

not touch the components on the board unless it is
necessary to do so. Do not flex or stress circuit
boards.

• Leave all components inside the static-proof packag-

ing that they ship with until they are ready for installa­tion.

• After replacing optional devices, make sure all

screws, springs, or other small parts are in place and
are not left loose inside the case. Metallic parts or
metal flakes can cause electrical shorts.

• Always use the correct size screws and fixings when

installing or replacing components.

Note: All connectors are designed to fit

one way only, no force should be required to
make a connection.

2.2 Installing motherboard components

2.2 Installing motherboard components

Chapter 2: Setting up 15

4. Place the processor in the socket, making sure that pin 1
is correctly located.

Note: The processor will only fit in the

socket one way. No force should be required
to insert the processor.

5. Push the locking lever back down into the locked position
as shown.

6. Apply some thermal grease to the top of the processor

Note: It is essential that thermal grease

(heat sink compound) is applied to the pro­cessors before the heat sink is installed to
ensure that the heat sink works efficiently.

2.2 Installing motherboard components

16 Chapter 2: Setting up

7. Place the heat sink on top of the processor with the fan to
the rear of the chassis as shown.

Note: All heat sinks must be installed with

fans facing the rear of the chassis to ensure
efficient cooling.

8. Tighten the two screws on the heat sink to secure them in
place.

Note: Each heat sink should be secured

with two screws, each with a spring beneath
them. When installing or removing heat sinks
the two screws should be turned alternately,
a little at a time, to prevent the heat sink form
springing up on one side, or being tightened
down unevenly.

9. Connect the fan to the appropriate pin header as shown.

2.2 Installing motherboard components

Chapter 2: Setting up 17

2.2.3 Installing memory

Introduction

Your Transport TX46 (B4882) system includes a powerful
TYAN Thunder K8QS S4882 motherboard with Phoenix
BIOS on 4 MB LPC flash ROM.

The BIOS is the motherboard’s basic input/output system.
The BIOS contains all the settings required to control the key­board, display, disk drives, serial communications, and a
number of miscellaneous functions. This section of the
appendix describes the various BIOS settings that can be
used to configure your system.

BIOS setup utility

With the BIOS setup utility, you can modify BIOS settings and
control the special features of your computer. The setup util­ity uses a number of menus for making changes and turning
the special features on or off.

Note: All menus are based on a typical

system. The actual menus displayed on your
screen may be different and depend on the
hardware and features installed in your com­puter.

To start the BIOS setup utility:

1. Turn on or reboot your system.

2. Press <F2> during POST to start the BIOS setup utility.

Returning merchandise for service

If any problems occur during the product’s warranty period,
consult your system vendor or distributor before contacting
TYAN. The warranty covers normal customer use of the
product. The warranty does not cover damages sustained
during shipping or failure due to alteration, misuse, abuse, or
improper maintenance of the unit.

Note: A receipt or copy of your invoice,

marked with the date of purchase, is required
before any warranty service can be provided.
You may obtain service by calling the manu­facturer for a Return Merchandise Authoriza­tion (RMA) number. The RMA number
should be displayed prominently on the out­side of the shipping carton, and the package
should be mailed prepaid. TYAN will pay to
have the product shipped back to you.
