    3. HARDWARE SETUP 3.5 System Memory (DIMM) NOTE: No hardware or BIOS setup is required after adding or removing memory. This motherboard uses only Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMMs). Sockets are available for 3.3Volt (power level) “registered” Synchronous Dynamic Random Ac- cess Memory (SDRAM) of 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024MB with Serial Presence Detect (SPD).

  • Page 22: Dimm Installation

    3. HARDWARE SETUP 3.5.2 DIMM Installation Insert the module(s) as shown. Because the number of pins are different on either side of the breaks, the module will only fit in the orientation shown. DIMMs are longer and have different pin contacts on each side and therefore have a higher pin density compared to SIMMs.

  • Page 23: Central Processing Unit (Cpu)

    3. HARDWARE SETUP 3.6 Central Processing Unit (CPU) The motherboard provides a ZIF Socket 370. The CPU that came with the mother- board should have a fan attached to it to prevent overheating. If this is not the case, then purchase a fan before you turn on your system. WARNING! Be sure that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor’s heatsink by regularly checking that your CPU fan is working.

  • Page 25: Assigning Irqs For Expansion Cards

    3. HARDWARE SETUP 3.7.2 Assigning IRQs for Expansion Cards This is applicable only when MPS 1.4 Support is Disabled in section 4.6 Boot Menu. Some expansion cards need an IRQ to operate. Generally, an IRQ must be exclu- sively assigned to one use. In a standard design, there are 16 IRQs available but most of them are already in use, leaving 6 IRQs free for expansion cards.

  • Page 26: Connectors

    3. HARDWARE SETUP 3.8 Connectors WARNING! Some pins are used for connectors or power sources. These are clearly distinguished from jumpers in the Motherboard Layout. Placing jumper caps over these connector pins will cause damage to your motherboard. IMPORTANT: Ribbon cables should always be connected with the red stripe to Pin 1 on the connectors.

  • Page 29 3. HARDWARE SETUP 9) Chassis Intrusion Lead (4-1 pin CHASSIS) Also in Panel Connectors This requires an external detection mechanism such as a chassis intrusion moni- tor/sensor or microswitch. The sensor is triggered when pins 3 and 4 are opened. If the chassis intrusion lead is not used, a jumper cap must be placed over pins 3 and 4 to close the circuit.
  • Page 30 3. HARDWARE SETUP 11) Primary (Blue) / Secondary IDE Connectors (40-1 pin IDE1/IDE2) These connectors support the provided UltraDMA/33 IDE hard disk ribbon cable. Connect the cable’s blue connector to the motherboard’s primary (recommended) or secondary IDE connector, and then connect the gray connector to your UltraDMA/33 slave device (hard disk drive) and the black connector to your UltraDMA/33 master device.
  • Page 31 3. HARDWARE SETUP 12) Wake-On-LAN Connector (3-pin WOL_CON) This connector connects to a LAN card with a Wake-On-LAN output, such as the PCI-L101 Ethernet card (see 7. APPENDIX). The connector powers up the system when a wakeup packet or signal is received through the LAN card. IMPORTANT: This feature requires that Wake On LAN or PCI Modem card is enabled (see 4.5.1 Power Up Control) and that your system has an ATX power supply with at least 720mA +5V standby power.
