Chapter 2: Board Installation
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 g rounded antist atic surface or on the antist atic
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!
1. To avoid dama ging 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.

2.5 Installing the Processor and Heatsink
The types of processors supported by the S7063 are listed in the 1.2 Hardware
Specifications section on page 5. Check our website at http://www.tyan.com
for
the latest list of validated Intel
®
processors for this specific motherboard.
NOTE: MiTAC is not liable for damage as a result of operating an
unsupported configuration.
Processor Installation (Socket H3 for Intel CPU)
Follow the steps described later to install the processors and heat sinks.
NOTE: Please save and replace the CPU protection cap when returni ng for service.
1. Remove the CPU Protection Cap.
2. Open the socket levers.
3. Open the CPU socket cover.
http://www.tyan.com
26
4. Install the processor and make sure the gold arrow is located in the right
direction.
5. Close the CPU socket cover.
6. Close the socket lever.
http://www.tyan.com
27
Heat sink Installation
After installing the processor, you will need to proceed to install the heat sink. The
CPU heat sink will ensure that the processor do not overheat and continue to
operate at maximum performance for as long as you own them. An overheated
processor is dangerous to the motherboard. The processors will overheat within
seconds, enter thermal protection, and shut down if heatsinks are not installed.
For the safest method of installation and information on choosing the appropriate
heat sink, using heat sinks validated by Intel®. Please refer to the Intel® website:
http://www.intel.com
The following diagram illustrates how to install the heatsink on the Intel
®
H3 Socket:
1. Apply the thermal grease.
2. Install the CPU heatsink.
http://www.tyan.com
28
3. Secure the heatsink screws.
4. Connect the heatsink fan cable.
http://www.tyan.com
29
2.6 Thermal Interface Material
There are two types of
thermal interface materials
designed for use with the
processors.
The most common material
comes as a small pad
attached to the heat sink at
the time of purchase. There
should be a protective cover
over the material. Take care
not to touch this material.
Simply remove the protective
cover and place the heat
sink on the processor.
The second type of interface
material is usually packaged
separately. It is commonly
referred to as ‘thermal
compound’. Simply apply a
thin layer on to the CPU lid
(applying too much will
actually reduce the cooling).
NOTE: Always check with the manufacturer of the heat sink & processor to
ensure that the thermal interface material is compatible with the processor
and meets the manufacturer’s warranty requirements.

2.7 Tips on Installing Motherboard in Chassis
Before installing your motherboard, make sure your chassis has the necessary
motherboard support studs installed. These studs are usually metal and a re gold in
color. Usually, the chassis manufacturer will pre-install the support studs. If you ar e
unsure of stud placement, simply lay the motherb oard inside the chassis and align
the screw holes of the motherboard to the studs inside the case. If there are any
studs missing, you will know right away since the motherboard will not be able to b e
securely installed.
Note: Be especially careful to look for extra stand-offs. If there are any stand-offs
present that are not aligned with a mounting hole on the motherboard, it will likely
short components on the back of the motherboard when installed. This will cause
malfunction and/or damage to your motherboard.
