Installing the Motherboard
1 Install your CPU. Use a screwdriver to
make the CPU socket in tension release
position.
2 Locate the CPU cut edge (the corner with
the pin hold noticeably missing). Align
and insert the CPU correctly.
3 Use a screwdriver to screw up the CPU
socket.
4 Apply thermal grease on top of the CPU
5 Fasten the cooling fan supporting base
onto the CPU socket on the motherboard.
6 Make sure the CPU fan is plugged to the
CPU fan connector. This completes the
installation.
CPU Installation Procedure
The following illustration shows CPU installation components.
To achieve better airflow rates and heat dissipation, we suggest that you use
a high quality fan with 6000 rpm at least. CPU fan and heatsink installation
procedures may vary with the type of CPU fan/heatsink supplied. The form
and size of fan/heatsink may also vary.
Do not remove any memory module from its antistatic packaging until you
are ready to install it on the motherboard. Handle the modules only by their
edges. Do not touch the components or metal parts. Always wear a ground-
ing strap when you handle the modules.
Installing Memory Modules
This motherboard accommodates one 184-pin unbuffered Double Data Rate (DDR)
SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory) memory module, and
supports DDR333/266/200 memory module (only when supports 855GME).
