  • Page 6 The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. Make sure you are earthed and free of static charge before you open the computer case. If you are unsure about upgrading your computer, return it to Viglen so a qualified engineer can perform the upgrade. CAUTION!
  • Page 7 1. The best way to prevent static discharge is to buy an anti-static strap from your local electrical shop. While you are wearing the strap and it is earthed, static charge will be harmlessly bled to ground. 2. Do not remove the component from its anti-static protective packaging until you are about to install it.

    CAUTION: Do not move any jumpers with the power on. Always turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the computer before changing a jumper setting. Otherwise, the board could be damaged. Figure 5 - Location of the BIOS Configuration Jumper Block The three-pin BIOS jumper block enables all board configurations to be done in the BIOS Setup program.

  • Page 15 Figure 6 - Memory Channel Configuration and DIMM Configuration OTE: Regardless of the memory configuration used (dual channel, single channel, or flex mode), DIMM 0 of Channel A must always be populated. Th is a requirement of the ICH8 Manageability Engine feature. ual Channel (Interleaved) Mode Configurations igure 7 shows a dual channel configuration using two DIMMs.
  • Page 16 Figure 8 shows a dual channel configuration using three DIMMs. In this xample, the combined capacity of the two DIMMs in Channel A equal the apacity of the single DIMM in the DIMM0 (blue) socket of Channel B. Figure 8 - Dual Channel (Interleaved) Mode Configuration with Three DIMMs igure 9 - shows a dual channel configuration using four DIMMs.
  • Page 17 NOTE: Dual channel (Interleaved) mode configurations provide the highest emory throughput. Figure 10 - shows a single channel configuration using one DIMM. In this example, only the IMM0 (blue) socket of Ch annel A is populated. Channel B is not populated. Figure 10 - Single Channel (Asymmetric) Mode Configuration with One DIMM igure 11- shows a single channel configuration using three DIMMs.
  • Page 18 Figure 12 - Flex Mode Configuration with Two DIMMs • Installing and Removing Memory AUTION: When connected to AC power, the memory slots on the board will be powered and in use. A red LED (Figure 13) - B, located near the memory slots, will be lit if the memory slots are powered.
  • Page 19 o install a DIMM, follow these steps: ) Turn off all peripheral devices conn ected to the computer. Turn off the computer and disconnect the AC power cord. 2) Make sure the clips at either end of the DIMM socket(s) are pushed outward to the op position (see Figure 14)-A.
  • Page 20 o remove a DIMM, follow these steps: ) Turn off all peripheral devices conne cted to the computer. Turn off the computer. 2) Remove the AC power cord from the computer. 3) Remove the computer’s cover. 4) Gently spread the retaining clips at each end of t he DIMM socket.
