2-1 Hardware installation Steps Before using your computer, you had better complete the following steps: 1. Check motherboard setting 2. Install CPU 3. Install Memory 4. Install Expansion cards 5. Connect Ribbon cables, Panel wires, and power supply 6. Setup BIOS 7. Install software driver & utility 2-2 Checking Motherboard’s Jumper Setting 1. CPU Front Side Bus Frequency Setting (2-pin): S1 The motherboard’s CPU Host clock adjusted through jumper S1.
Note: You can clear CMOS by shorting 1-2 pin, while the system is unplug the power cord. Then return to 2-3 pin position. Avoid clearing the CMOS while the system is on, it will damage the motherboard. **Always unplug the power cord from the wall socket when clear CMOS.
Front Side Bus Frequency - the working frequency of the motherboard, which is generated by the clock generator for CPU, DRAM and PCI BUS. CPU L2 Cache - the flash memory inside the CPU, normally Athlon CPU has 256K or above, while Duron will have 64K. 2-3-2 About AMD Athlon & Duron 462-pin CPU This motherboard supports Socket-A (Socket-462) AMD Athlon/Duron processors. This motherboard provides a ZIF Socket-A.
WARNING! This section is for experienced motherboard installer only. Over clocking can result in system instability or even shortening life of the processor. After setting the Jumper S1 you can choose over clock running by BIOS CMOS SETUP UTILITY.
This motherboard provides two 168-pin DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES (DIMM) sites for memory expansion available from minimum memory size of 16MB to maximum memory size of 1GB SDRAM.

WARNING! Turn off your power when adding or removing expansion cards or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both your motherboard and expansion cards. 2-5-1 Procedure For Expansion Card Installation 1. Read the documentation for your expansion card and make any necessary hardware or software setting for your expansion card such as jumpers. 2. Remove your computer’s cover and the bracket plate on the slot you intend to use. 3. Align the card’s connectors and press firmly.

If using PCI cards on shared slots, make sure that the drivers support “Shared IRQ” or that the cards don’t need IRQ assignments. Conflicts will arise between the two PCI groups that will make the system unstable or cards inoperable.
(1) Power Connector: ATX_PW (20-pin block) ATX Power Supply connector. This is a new defined 20-pins connector that usually comes with ATX case. The ATX Power Supply allows to use soft power on momentary switch that connect from the front panel switch to 2-pins Power On jumper pole on the motherboard. When the power switch on the back of the ATX power supply turned on, the full power will not come into the system board until the front panel switch is momentarily pressed.
LAN (Only (5) for 830CF) Parallel Port Connector (25-pin female): PRINT Parallel Port connector is a 25-pin D-Subminiature Receptacle connector. The On-board Parallel Port can be disabled through the BIOS SETUP. Please refer to Chapter 3 “INTEGRATED PERIPHERALS SETUP” section for more detail information.

Connect the power supply cord into the power supply located on the back of your system case according to your system user’s manual. 4. Turn on your peripheral as following order: a. Your monitor. b.
Chapter 3 Introducing BIOS The BIOS is a program located on a Flash Memory on the motherboard. This program is a bridge between motherboard and operating system. When you start the computer, the BIOS program gain control. The BIOS first operates an auto-diagnostic test called POST (power on self test) for all the necessary hardware, it detects the entire hardware device and configures the parameters of the hardware synchronization.
