1. Make sure your CPU cooler is firmly installed before turning on your system.
2. Check the information in PC Health Status of H/W Monitor in BIOS for the CPU
temperature.
3. Do not touch the CPU socket pins to avoid damage.
4. Whenever CPU is not installed, always protect your CPU socket pins with the plastic cap
covered to avoid damage.
5. Please note that the mating/unmating durability of the CPU is 20 cycles. Therefore, we
suggest you do not plug/unplug the CPU too often.
Memory
The mainboard provides two 184-pin unbuffered DDR 266 / DDR333 / DDR400 DDR SDRAM,
and supports the memory size up to 2GB. To operate properly, at least one DIMM module must
be installed. (For the updated supporting memory modules, please visit
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_trp_list.php )
Install at least one DIMM module on the slots. Memory modules can be installed on the slots in
any order. You can install either single- or double-sided modules to meet your own needs.
Installing DDR Modules
1. The DDR DIMM has only one notch on the center of module. The module will only fit in the
right orientation.
2. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the
golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the socket.
3. The plastic clip at each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close.

Power Supply

The mainboard supports ATX power supply for the power system. Before inserting the power
supply connector, always make sure that all components
are installed properly to ensure that no damage will be
caused. A 300W or above power supply is suggested.
