Caution Care must be taken in the purchase of upgrade parts to ensure both compatibility with the system and the compliance with appropriate approvals and certification, e.g. CE marking within Europe. Using non-approved parts may invalidate your warranty and system approvals.
! Do not use excessive force. If the module will not fit easily, remove it and start again. The DIMM is inserted vertically and held in place by the clips at each end. " ! Do not use excessive force. If the module will not come free easily, check that the holding clips are clear of the module ends. Press the tabs on both of the socket’s end clips at the same time. This releases the DIMM and lifts it partly out of the socket.
# $ 1. Hold the processor by the edges – avoid touching the pins on the underside The processor and socket and keyed to ensure the processor is installed in the correct orientation. It will only fit into the socket one way. 2. When the processor is securely in place close the clip on the socket. Do not use excessive force. 3. Refit the heatsink/ fan making sure it is correctly and fully seated on the processor.
The FC810 microATX motherboard accepts the following Celeron™ processors operating at a bus speed of 66 or 100MHz. 266 4.0 66 300 4.5 66 333 5.0 66 366 5.5 66 400 6.0 66 433 6.5 66 466 7.0 66 500 5.0 100 550 5.5 100 600 6.0 100 The processor core voltages are generated by switched-mode regulators on the motherboard to the Intel VRM8.2 specification.
PCI Bus – supports Rev 2.2 spec and 4/ 6 (optional) master devices Dual UltraDMA33/ 66 (optional) IDE controller Dual USB controller (12Mbps or 1.
!% The BIOS is contained in a flash ROM device – Firmware Hub (FWH) soldered directly to the motherboard and includes the code listed below. The motherboard will automatically perform a BIOS recovery operation if it detects a valid recovery disk during the boot sequence. The BIOS ROM is accessed as a single linear region in the memory space from 4GB-128kB (0FFFE0000 0FFFFFFFFh) and copied at the top of ISA memory (0E0000 - 0FFFFFh).
The following audio connectors are supported. Rear 3.5mm jack microphone input with phantom power Rear 3.5mm jack LINE in Rear 3.
+ + This is EPP 1.9 and IEE1284 (ECP) compliant and is compatible with a standard (output only) PC parallel port as well as a bi-directional (PS/2 style) parallel port. There is a 25-way D-type connector on the rear panel. ! * Two UltraDMA33/ (66 - ICH1) IDE ports are provided with the controller integrated into the ICH. This allows for a maximum of four drives to be connected - two to each port.
$ , The motherboard supports an ACPI-compliant standby switch for use with a soft-switch power supply. The action of the switch is under a combination of hardware and software control and is summarised in the table below. The motherboard will power off regardless of the state of software if the switch is held down for more than 4 seconds.
There are three main elements to the optional system management hardware.

BIOS (pronounced “bye-oss”) stands for ‘basic input/output system’. The BIOS mediates between the computer’s hardware – the processor, memory, and so on – and its software – the operating system and your programs. The BIOS program is kept in permanent, read-only memory or ROM (although if necessary it can be upgraded by an authorised maintainer). BIOS Setup is a helpful utility that forms part of the BIOS program.
' Minus (-) or F5 Select the previous value for the current field. Enter Make a selection from the menu bar or enter a sub-menu. Home or End Move the cursor to the top or bottom of the current menu. Page up or Page down Move the cursor to the next or previous page of the current menu. F9 Restore the default settings for the fields on the current menu. F10 Save the changes you’ve made and exit from BIOS Setup.
" +% # Whenever a recoverable (non-terminal) error occurs during POST, the BIOS displays an error message describing the problem (the most usual are described below). After some messages, you may be prompted to Press to resume, to enter Setup or just Press to enter Setup.
Operating system not found An operating system cannot be located either on a system diskette or on a hard disk. Start BIOS Setup and check that the diskette and/or hard disk drives are specified correctly. Parity check 1 xxxx or Parity check 2 xxxx Parity error found on the system (1) or I/O (2) bus. The BIOS attempts to locate and display the address xxxx. If it cannot locate the address, it displays “????”.
The BIOS also issues Port 80h codes that can be displayed using a suitable diagnostic card. The codes can be used to determine the failure.
