2. Central Processing Unit (CPU) The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor in the 775-land package with 1MB L2 cache. The processor, built on the 90-nanometer manufacturing technology, supports 800MHz front side bus (FSB), Intel® Hyperthreading Technology, and core speeds of up to 3.4GHz. Before installing the CPU, make sure that the cam box is facing towards you and the load lever is on your left. To install a CPU: 1.
5. Position the CPU over the socket, making sure that the gold triangle is on the bottom-left corner of the socket. The socket alignment key should fit into the CPU notch. Alignment key Gold triangle mark The CPU fits in only one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU into the socket to prevent bending the connectors on the socket and damaging the CPU! 6. Use both thumbs to carefully push out the PnP cap from the load plate window. 7.
3. System memory The motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate (DDR) Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) sockets. These sockets support up to 4GB system memory using 184-pin unbuffered non-ECC 2.6V DDR SDRAM. DIMM_B2 DIMM_B1 DIMM_A2 DIMM_A1 The following figure illustrates the location of the DDR DIMM sockets.

4. Expansion slots The motherboard has one PCI Express and three PCI slots. To install and configure an expansion card: 1. Install an expansion card following the instructions that came with the chassis. 2. Turn on the system and change the necessary BIOS settings, if any. 3. Assign an IRQ to the card. Refer to the tables below. 4. Install the drivers and/or software applications for the expansion card according to the card documentation.

5. Jumpers Clear RTC RAM (3-pin CLRTC) This jumper allows you to clear the Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM in CMOS. You can clear the CMOS memory of date, time, and system setup parameters by erasing the CMOS RTC RAM data. The onboard button cell battery powers the RAM data in CMOS, which include system setup information such as system passwords. To erase the RTC RAM: 1. Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord. 2. Move the jumper cap from pins 2-3 (Normal) to pins 1-2 (Clear CMOS).

6.2 Internal connectors This section describes and illustrates the internal connectors on the motherboard. 1 . Floppy disk drive connector (34-1 pin FLOPPY) This connector supports the provided floppy drive ribbon cable. After connecting one end to the motherboard, connect the other end to the floppy drive. (Pin 5 is removed to prevent incorrect insertion when using ribbon cables with pin 5 plug). PIN 1 FLOPPY NOTE: Orient the red markings on the floppy ribbon cable to PIN 1.
3. ATX power connectors (24-pin ATXP WR ATXPW R,, 4-pin ATX12V) These connectors are for an ATX 12V power supply. The plugs from the power supply are designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the proper orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit. In addition to the 24-pin ATXPWR connector, this motherboard requires that you connect the 4-pin ATX +12V power plug to provide sufficient power to the CPU.
IEEE 1394 connector (10-1 pin FRONT_1394) This connector is for a 10-to-6-pin 1394 serial connector cable that connects to a 1394 module. Attach the 10-1 pin cable plug to this connector, and the 6-pin cable plug to the 1394 module. You can also connect a 1394-compliant internal hard disk to this connector. +12V TPB+ GND TPA+ 5.
