Static Electricity Precautions

+omponents on this mainboard can be damaged by static electricity. Take the following precautions when unpacking the mainboard and installing it in a system. 6. Ceep the mainboard and other components in their original static)proof packaging until you are ready to install them. (. ,uring installation, wear a grounded wrist strap if possible. If you donKt have a wrist strap, discharge static electricity by touching the bare metal of the system chassis. 3. Handle the mainboard carefully by the edges. $void touching the components unless it is absolutely necessary. ,uring installation put the mainboard on top of the static)protection packaging it came in with the component side facing up.

Pre-Installation Inspection
6. Inspect the mainboard for damage to the components and connectors on the board. (. If you suspect that the mainboard has been damaged, do not connect power to the system. +ontact your mainboard vendor and report the damage.

Chapter 2 Mainboard Installation

To install this mainboard in a system, follow the procedures in this chapter:

Identify the mainboard components Install a +%A Install one or more system memory modules "erify that any jumpers or switches are set correctly Install the mainboard in a system chassis <case> +onnect any extension brackets or cables to the mainboard connector headers Install any other devices and make the appropriate connections to the mainboard connector headers.

5ote> 6. efore installing this mainboard, make sure jumper F%3 is set to Normal, the default setting. &ee this chapter for information on locating F%3 and the setting options. (. Never connect power to the system during installation. ,oing so may damage the mainboard.

For this mainboard, you must use 6D1)pin, 3.3" unbuffered &,4$! memory modules. If the installed +%A uses a 622 !HB system bus, you must use %+622'%+633 memory. If the installed +%A uses a DD !HB system bus, you must use %+DD'%+622 memory. ;ou can install any siBe memory module from 6D! to 06(! , so the maximum memory siBe is ( x 06(! J 6 # . The edge connectors on the memory modules have cut outs, which coincide with spacers in the ,I!! sockets so that memory modules can only be installed in the correct orientation. 62

2: Mainboard Installation

To install a module, push the retaining latches at either end of the socket outwards. %osition the memory module correctly and insert it into the ,I!! socket. %ress the module down into the socket so that the retaining latches rotate up and secure the module in place by fitting into notches on the edge of the module.

umper S!itc"es

Fumpers are sets of pins which can be connected together with jumper caps. The jumper caps change the way the mainboard operates by changing the electronic circuits on the mainboard. If a jumper cap connects two pins, we say the pins are &H-4T. If a jumper cap is removed from two pins, the pins are -%5N.
