Chapter 2: Setting Up

2.0.1 Before you Begin

This chapter explains how to install the CPUs, CPU heatsinks, memory
modules, and hard drives. Instructions on inserting add on
cards are also given.

2.0.2 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.

2.0.3 Tools

The following procedures require only a few tools, including the
following:

 A cross head (Phillips) screwdriver
 A grounding strap or an anti-static pad

Most of the electrical and mechanical connections can be disconne-

-cted using your fingers. It is recommended that you do not use nee-

-dlenosed pliers to remove connectors as these can damage the soft
metal or plastic parts of the connectors.

Caution!

1. To avoid damaging the motherboard and associated

components, do not use torque force greater than

7kgf/cm (6.09 lb/in) on each mounting screw for

motherboard installation.

2. Do not apply power to the board if it has been
damaged.

30

http://www.tyan.com

2.0.4 Precautions

Components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by
discharges of 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 FT77C-B7079 or injury to yourself.

 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 packaging 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.

Chapter 4: Motherboard Information

You are now ready to install your motherboard.

How to install our products right… the first time

The first thing you should do is read this user‟s manual. It contains important

information that will make configuration and setup much easier. Here are some
precautions you should take when installing your motherboard:

(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the

antistatic bag. Unplug the power from your computer power supply and
then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power
supply case). For the safest conditions, MiTAC recommends wearing a
static safety wrist strap.

(2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the

board, or flex the board in any way.

(3) Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips, connectors,

memory modules, and leads.

(4) Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the antistatic

bag that the board was shipped in.

(5) Inspect the board for damage.

The following pages include details on how to install your motherboard into your
chassis, as well as installing the processor, memory, disk drives and cables.

Caution!

3. To avoid damaging the motherboard and associated

components, do not use torque force greater than

7kgf/cm (6.09 lb/in) on each mounting screw for

motherboard installation.

4. Do not apply power to the board if it has been
damaged.

Some chassis include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are
usable, MiTAC recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the
motherboard more securely in place.

Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and
how they should be installed.

4.6 Installing Add-In Cards

Before installing add-in cards, it‟s helpful to know if they are fully compatible with

your motherboard. For this reason, we‟ve provided the diagrams below, showing the

slots that may appear on your motherboard.
PCI-E Gen3 x16 slot

PCI-E Gen3 x8 slot

PCI-E Gen3 x1 slot

Simply find the appropriate slot for your add-in card and insert the card firmly. Do not
force any add-in cards into any slots if they do not seat in place. It is better to try
another slot or return the faulty card rather than damaging both the motherboard and
the add-in card.

TIP: It‟s a good practice to install add-in cards in a staggered manner rather than
making them directly adjacent to each other. Doing so allows air to circulate within
the chassis more easily, thus improving cooling for all installed devices.

NOTE: You must always unplug the power connector from the motherboard before

performing system hardware changes to avoid damaging the board or expansion
device.

Chapter 5: BIOS Setup

5.1 About the BIOS

The BIOS is the basic input/output system, the firmware on the motherboard that
enables your hardware to interface with your software. The BIOS determines what a
computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. The BIOS contains all the
code required to control the keyboard, display screen, disk drives, serial
communications, and a number of miscellaneous functions. This chapter describes
the various BIOS settings that can be used to configure your system.

The BIOS section of this manual is subject to change without notice and is provided
for reference purposes only. The settings and configurations of the BIOS are current
at the time of print and are subject to change, and therefore may not match exactly
what is displayed on screen.

This section describes the BIOS setup program. The setup program lets you modify
basic configuration settings. The settings are then stored in a dedicated,
battery-backed memory (called NVRAM) that retains the information even when the
power is turned off.

To start the BIOS setup utility:

1. Turn on or reboot your system.

2. Press <F2> or <Del> during POST (<Tab> on remote console) to start the
BIOS setup utility.

5.1.1 Setup Basics

The table below shows how to navigate in the setup program using the keyboard.

5.1.2 Getting Help

Pressing [F1] will display a small help window that describes the appropriate
keys to use and the possible selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help
Window, press [ESC] or the [Enter] key again.

5.1.3 In Case of Problems

If you have trouble booting your computer after making and saving the changes with
the BIOS setup program, you can restart the computer by holding the power button
down until the computer shuts off (usually within 4 seconds); resetting by pressing
CTRL-ALT-DEL; or clearing the CMOS.
The best advice is to only alter settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular,
do not change settings in the Chipset section unless you are absolutely sure of what
you are doing. The Chipset defaults have been carefully chosen either by MiTAC or
your system manufacturer for best performance and reliability. Even a seemingly
small change to the Chipset setup options may cause the system to become
unstable or unusable.

5.1.4 Setup Variations

Not all systems have the same BIOS setup layout or options. While the basic look
and function of the BIOS setup remains more or less the same for most systems, the
appearance of your Setup screen may differ from the charts shown in this section.
Each system design and chipset combination requires a custom configuration. In
addition, the final appearance of the Setup program depends on the system
designer. Your system designer may decide that certain items should not be
available for user configuration, and remove them from the BIOS setup program.

NOTE: The following pages provide the details of BIOS menu. Please be aware that

the BIOS menus are continually changing due to continual BIOS updates over the
product lifespan of the motherboard. The BIOS menus provided are current as of the
date when this manual was written. Please visit TYAN‟s website at

http://www.tyan.com for information on BIOS updates available for this specific

motherboard.
