Chapter 1: Introduction
1.1 Congratulations!
You are now the owner of the world’s first dual AMD processor platform!
- CONSUMER EDITION!
The Tyan Tiger MP™ is a direct descen dent of the Thunder K 7, the mo st critically acclaimed and deco­rated system board in the h istory of Tyan. Aimed directly at the power-user and e nthusiast market, the Tiger MP is a high performance workstation platform designed for development and performance applica­tions that require t he pow er of dua l AMD Athlo n™ MP p rocesso rs. This p latform utiliz es t he A MD-760 ™ MP chipset and can support CPU speeds greater than 1.0+GHz and front side bus speeds of 200 MHz or 266 MHz. Please see Tyan’s website for updates and infor mation concernin g CPU inform at ion and sup­port:
http://www.tyan.com
This integrated perfo rmance boa rd is supported in an ATX form factor. Features of the Tiger MP include onboard UltraDMA-100/66/33, and multiple boot options.
With both I/O and drive con troller su pport onbo ard, the one 2x/4 x mode AGP slot, four 64 /32-bit 33M Hz PCI slots, and two 32-bit 33MHz PCI slots are free for nume rous types of add-on expan sion cards. The four 184-pin DDR DIMM sockets can support up to 3GB of PC1600/2100 registered DDR SDRAM.
Remember to visit Tyan’s website at http://www.tyan.com. T here you can find information on all of Tyan’s products with FAQs, distributors list, and BIOS settings explanations.
NOTE: See PAGE 28 for recommenda tions and det ails of power supply info rmation and installa­tion.

Chapter 2: Board Installation
2.1 Installation
Once you’ve checked th at everything is ins ide the box (see p. 4 for details), you will then be ready to install your mothe rboard . The m ounti ng ho le patt ern o f the m other board match es t he ATX board specif i­cations, so your chassis must be capable of suppor ting an Extended ATX board (check the mo therbo ard dimensions provided on p. 8).
2.2 How to install our products right.. the first time.
Question: what’s the first thing I should do?
The first thing you should do is read the user’s manual. It contains important information which will make configuration and setup much easier, as well as provide information on device installation and component setup. By reading through the manual completely before installing your motherboard, you will have a complete overview on the installation.
2.3 Here are some safety tips:
(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the antistatic bag. Unplug the power from your computer power supply and touch any metal part on the computer case. (You might also want to wear a grounded wrist strap.) (2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the board. (3) Avoid touching motherboard components, IC chips, connectors, and leads. (4) Avoid touching pins of memory modules and chips. (5) Place motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the antistatic bag.
Having reviewed the precautions above, the next step is to take the motherboard out of the cardboard box and static bag, hold it by its edges, and place it on a grounded antistatic surface (such as the bag it came in), component side up. Then, inspect the board for damage.
NOTE: DO NOT APPLY POWER T O THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED!
Press down on any of the socketed ICs if it appears that they are not properly seated (the board should still be on an antistatic mat or on top of the bag it came in). Do not touch the bottom of the board. Remem­ber, don’t take any electronic device out of its protective bag until you are ready to actually start installing it into the computer case (e.g. setting jumpers, etc.) If you do not ground yourself, you risk “zapping” the motherboard or adapter card. Subsequent problems may not arise immediately because electrostatic dis­charge, unlike physical damage, causes the device to fail over time.

2.4 Quick References for Jumpers
In this manual, the term “close d” and “on” are used wh en referring to jumpers (or jumper pins) that are active; “open” and “off” a re u s ed whe n re fer ring to j u mp ers (or j um per pin s) that are inactive. See Figure
2.0a and Figure 2.0c for examples of “on” and “off” pins and jumpers.
Jumpers and pins are connec ted by slipping the plastic jum per connector over the top of tw o adjacent jumper pins (indica ted b y 1-2 or 2-3 ). Th e met al r od insid e the plast ic shell bridg es the gap b etween the two pins, completing the circ uit. See Figure 2.0b and Figure 2.0d for more examples of 3-pin jumper connections. NOTE: The small number “1” indicates pin 1.
The tables and maps on the following pages will help you set the jumpers for CPU speed, infrared, and external connector pin assignments, among others. The miniature motherboard maps will help you locate the jumpers on your board. Full page maps of the motherboard can be found on the next two pages.

2.6-B. CMOS Reset (J21)
J21
If you have been lo cked out of your system because you forgot your password or set the CMOS incor­rectly, or have just finished flashing your BIOS follow the instructions below.
1. Power off the system, and disconnect the power supply
2. Close pins 2-3 on J21
3. Wait about three seconds
4. Close pins 1-2 on J21, then power on the system again
By following this procedure, you will erase your password and reset the CMOS.

2.6-I. Soft Power Connector
The soft power c onnector is pa rt of jump er block J12 (pins 13 and 15) . This board uses the chipset for power management, including turning on and off the system. If the power butto n function option in the BIOS Power Management m enu is set to “On/Off” (wh ich is the d efault), pressing th e power bu tton once after the BIOS has booted up will turn the system on and off. If the power button function is set to Sus­pend, pressing the power button once will wake up the system or send it to Suspend mode. In this case, you cannot turn the syste m o ff unless you shu t d own thr oug h t he Windo ws op er ating syst em or you ho ld the power button down for four seconds (BIOS-dependent feature).
