INTRODUCTION

The MSI LPX ZX4 mainboard is a high-performance all-in-one computer

mainboard based on the Intel

Celeron

processor. This mainboard

combines leading edge SiS 6326 AGP technology in graphics, Creative

ES1373 PCI technology in audio, and Intel

82558 10/100M Ethernet for

LAN. The Intel

Celeron

processor supports MMX

(Multimedia

Extension) technology.

The mainboard uses the highly integrated Intel

82443ZX AGPset to support

the PCI/ISA and Green standards, and to provide the Host/AGP bridge. The

Intel

82371EB chipset integrates all system control functions such as ACPI

(Advanced Configuration and Power Interface). The ACPI provides more

Energy Saving Features for the OSPM(OS Direct Power Management)

function. The Intel

82371EB chipset also improves the IDE transfer rate by

supporting Ultra DMA/33 IDE that transfers data at the rate of 33MB/s.

The mainboard also supports the System Hardware Monitor Controller as an

optional function. Its functions include: CPU fan revolution detect, CPU/

system voltage monitor, system temperature monitor, and chassis intrusion

detect(optional).

Page 6: Hardware Installation
Chapter 2 HARDWARE INSTALLATION ® The mainboard operates with Intel Celeron processor. The mainboard uses Socket 370 for easy CPU installation and a jumper switch (SW1) to set the proper speed for the CPU. The CPU should always have a Heat Sink and a cooling fan attached to prevent overheating.
Page 7: Table Of Contents
2.1-1 CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure 1. The DIP Switch SW1 (1, 2, 3, and 4) is used to set the Core/Bus (Fraction) ratio of the CPU. The actual core speed of the CPU is the Host Clock Frequency multiplied by the Core/Bus ratio. For example: CPU Clock = 66MHz Core/Bus ratio...
Page 8 2.1-2 CPU Speed Setting: SW1 To adjust the speed of the CPU, you must know the specification of your CPU (always ask the vendor for CPU specification). Speed Setting...

Page 10 2.1-3 Overclocking Jumper: JP3 This Jumper is only used for overclocking. Changing the CPU system Bus Speed will alter the AGP clock speed. Formula AGP clock = CPU clock AGP clock = CPU clock x 2/3 This feature only works with 100MHz FSB. NOTE: We provide CPU Bus Frequency setting for over 100MHz.
Page 11 2.1-4 Fan Power Connectors: CPUFAN These connectors support system cooling fan with +12V. It supports three pin head connector. When connecting the wire to the connector, always take note that the red wire is the positive and should be connected to the +12V, the black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND.
Page 12 A battery must be used to retain the mainboard configuration in CMOS RAM. Short 1-2 pins of JBAT1 to store the CMOS data. JBAT1 Clear Data Keep Data Note: You can clear CMOS by shorting 2-3 pin, while the system is off. Then, return to 1-2 pin position.
Page 13: Memory Bank Configuration
2.3-1 Memory Bank Configuration The mainboard supports a maximum memory size of 256MB (8M x 8) or 512MB (16M x 4) registered DIMM for SDRAM: It provides two 168-pin unbuffered DIMMs (Double In-Line Memory Module) sockets. It supports 8 MB to 256 Mbytes DIMM memory module. There are two kinds of DIMM specification supported by this mainboard: PC100 and PC66.
