5: System Configuration
This chapter explains what you need to do to assemble a
complete system after you have installed the motherboard
in a system housing. This will include installing or con-
necting internal devices, connecting external system com-
ponents. Once the system is assembled, you’ll need to
check and possibly configure the motherboard’s CMOS
Setup Utility, install an Operating System and install the
support software supplied on the Power Installer sup-
port CD-ROM disc.
Installing or Connecting Internal Peripherals
To complete the assembly of a working system you will
need to at least install an AGP video display card and
connect whatever disk drives you will use in the system.
This section covers what you need to know on the
motherboard side to do this. You will also need to con-
sult the documentation that comes with your internal sys-
tem peripherals for additional installation instructions and
information. This section covers the minimum compo-
nents you will need to connect to the motherboard to
create a functioning system. You may plan to add other
devices as well.
