Pre-Installation Procedure

Before you install your motherboard into a computer case, it's conven-
ient to install the processor, install the memory modules, and set all the
jumpers to the correct settings.

Install the Processor

Choosing a Processor

This motherboard has a Socket-370 that can only be installed with an
Intel INTEL PPGA (Plastic Pin Grid Array) /FC-PGA Celeron or an FC-
PGA Pentium III or VIA Cyrix III processor. Take care that you don't
purchase a SEPP (Single Edge Processor Package) Celeron or a Slot 1
Pentium III. Also, don't try to install a Socket 7 processor that is similar
in design and appearance to the INTEL PPGA/ FC-PGACeleron/FC-
PGA Pentium III.
PPGA/ FC-PGA Celeron, FC-PGA Pentium III and Cyrix III processors
have shipped with clock speeds operating over a 66/100/133 MHz front-
side bus. All current INTEL PPGA/ FC-PGA Celeron, FC-PGA Pentium
III and VIA Cyrix III processors are supported by this motherboard. Use
the fastest processor you can afford—the faster the clock speed of the
processor, the better the performance of your system.
Make sure that your processor includes a heat sink/cooling fan assem-
bly. Today's high-speed processors must be cooled in order to ensure
reliable operation.
We strongly recommend that you don't try to run your processor faster
than its rated speed. Overclocking can introduce reliability errors and
the excess heat generated can damage components.
