Refer to the motherboard user’s manual for detailed technical information about the motherboard. Placement Direction When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the chassis correctly. The edge with the external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis.
2.3 Install a CPU The 478-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket on the P4B533-M motherboard supports an Intel Pentium 4 processor. This section tells you how to install a CPU. Refer to the motherboard user guide for more information. CPU Socket Location The CPU socket is located beside the rear panel connectors. Note the Pin 1 location on the socket.
Unlock the CPU Socket Unlock the socket by pressing the lever sideways then lifting it up to a 90°-100° angle. Socket Lever 90 - 100 Insert the CPU 1. Position the CPU above the socket such that its marked corner matches the base of the socket lever. Gold Mark 2. Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place. Secure the CPU When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push down the socket lever to secure the CPU.
Install the Fan Heatsink Assembly 1. Align and snap the hooks of a retention bracket into the holes of the retention module base. Make sure that the arrow on the bracket points inward. 2. Follow step 1 to install the other bracket. 3. When attached to the module base, flip the brackets sideways to allow enough room for the fan heatsink assembly. (See picture in step 4).
4. Orient the fan heatsink assembly with the fan cable nearest the CPU fan connector on the motherboard (marked CPU_FAN). 5. Carefully place the fan heatsink assembly on top of the CPU. Make sure that the heatsink perfectly fits the retention module base. 6. Connect the fan cable to the CPU_FAN connector. CPU fan connector (CPU_FAN) 7. Flip back the retention brackets inward so that they fit the sides of the heatsink. 8.
2.4 Install System Memory DIMM Sockets Location The motherboard has two Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) sockets that support up to 2GB system memory using PC2100/ PC1600 DDR DIMMs. DDR DIMM sockets Install a DIMM 1. Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing the retaining clips outward. Align a DIMM on the socket such that the notch on the DIMM matches the break on the socket. 2. Firmly insert the DIMM into the socket until the retaining clips snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.
2.5 Install a Hard Disk Drive Remove the HDD/Floppy Cage 1. Remove the screw that secures the HDD/floppy cage. Make sure to disconnect the floppy cable from the floppy disk before removing the cage out of the chassis. HDD Metal Cage 2. Press the retaining clip to release the cage. 3. Lift the cage out of the chassis.
Install the HDD 1. Insert the HDD into the cage (label side up) until the holes on the HDD align with the holes on the cage. 2. Secure the HDD with four screws (two on each side). 3. Replace the cage into the chassis. Connect the Cables 1. Connect one end of the IDE cable to the IDE connector at the back of the drive, matching the red stripe on the cable with Pin 1 on the IDE connector. 2. Connect a power cable (plug marked P5) to the power connector at the back of the drive. 3.
2.6 Replace the Cover Re-install the Cover 1. Position the cover in place, aligning the tabs on the inner side of the cover to the rail holes on the chassis edge. 2. Slide the cover toward the front panel until it fits in place. 3. Turn the thumbscrews to secure the cover to the chassis.
