    Chapter 2 Hardware Installation This chapter summarizes the steps to install the G586IPV system board into your system unit. It also includes a description of the area in which you must work and directions for memory installation. Before installing the system board, obtain the memory you plan to install. Please refer to information on pages 15 and 16 for the number and type of memory modules needed for the amount of memory you require.
  • Page 12: Handling The System Board

    Handling the System Board It is quite easy to inadvertently damage your system board even before installing it in your system unit. Static electrical discharge can damage computer components without causing any signs of physical damage. You must take extra care in handling the system board to ensure against electrostatic build-up.
  • Page 13: Installing The System Board

    ESD protection. Installing the System Board If you are installing the G586IPV system board, the following outlines the basic installation steps. Before installing the system board into your system unit, you should prepare the tools you will need.
  • Page 14 4. Loosen the screws holding the original system board and remove the board from the system. Save the screws. 5. Remove the G586IPV from its original packing box. Be careful to avoid touching all connectors and pins on the board. Please refer to the handling instructions on pages 11-12 for proper handling tech- niques.
  • Page 17: Simm

    0 or Bank 1, but you must populate a bank first before going to the next bank. The G586IPV system board can support 8MB to 128MB of memory us- ing 1MBx32, 2MBx32, 4MBx32, or 8MBx32 72-pin SIMMs. The table below shows the supported SIM modules and their corresponding memory sizes.
  • Page 18: Jumper Settings For Dimm And Simm

    Tilt the module upright until it locks in place in the socket. Warning: The DIMM and SIMM can not exist on the G586IPV system board at the same time. You must only use either a DIMM or SIMMs on your system board.
  • Page 20: Installing The Cache Module

    PCI Slot 2 also must not protrude more than 5mm. CPU Installation The G586IPV allows for easy installation of CPUs. Make sure all jumpers are set correctly before applying power or you may damage the CPU or system board.

  • Page 24: Installing Upgrade Cpus

    Installing Upgrade CPUs The G586IPV is equipped with a 321-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket at location U25 of the system board. Refer to PAGE 14 for the location of the ZIF socket. This socket is designed for easy removal of an old CPU and easy insertion of an upgrade CPU.
  • Page 25 To install an upgrade CPU, do the following. 1. Make sure the handle on the side of the ZIF socket is up. To raise the handle, push it down, slightly pull it out to the side, then raise it as far as it will go. It may be necessary to initially apply a small amount of sideways force to free the handle from its retaining “...
  • Page 26 3. Position the CPU above the ZIF socket. Make sure pin 1 of the CPU is aligned with pin 1 of the socket. Lower the chip until the pins are inserted properly in their corresponding holes. Remember that very little force is needed to install the CPU. If the CPU is not easily inserted, verify whether or not pin 1 of the CPU is aligned with pin 1 of the socket.
  • Page 27: Installing A Fan/Heatsink For Cyrix Cpus

    Installing A Fan/Heatsink for Cyrix CPUs If you are using a Cyrix CPU, you must choose a fan/heatsink which is made for Cyrix processors. Position the fan/heatsink on the CPU such that the air from the side of the fan/heatsink will flow across the heat regulators on the system board.
  • Page 28: Jumper Settings For Password Clear And Display Type Select

    Jumper Settings for Password Clear and Display Type Jumper JP2 Password Clear If you set a password in the "Password Setting" option and forget your password. power off your system and set jumper JP2 to On to clear the password stored in your CMOS. Now power on your system. After your system has detected the floppy or hard drive, turn it off again and set JP2 to off.
  • Page 29: Built-In Ports

    Built-in Ports The G586IPV system board is equipped with two serial ports, one paral- lel printer port, one FDD connector, two IDE hard disk shrouded head- ers and one PS/2 mouse connector. Refer to page 14 for the locations of the built-in connectors and pin 1 of those connectors.
  • Page 30: Ps/2 Mouse Port

  • Page 31: Floppy Disk Drive Controller

    Floppy Disk Drive Controller The G586IPV system board has a built-in floppy disk controller that sup- ports two standard floppy disk drives. You can install any 360KB, 720KB, 1.2MB, 1.44MB, or 2.88MB floppy disk drives.
  • Page 32 Note: Only Enhanced IDE hard drives or ATAPI CD-ROMs can be connected to the IDE interface. Connecting the IDE Hard Disk Interface To prevent improper IDE cable installation, each PCI IDE shrouded header has a keying mechanism. The 40-pin connector on the IDE cable can be placed into the header only if pin 1 of the connector is aligned with pin 1 of the header.
  • Page 33 In a few cases, drives from two different manufacturers will not function properly when used together. The problem lies in the hard drives, not the G586IPV system board. Preparing an IDE Drive for Use IDE disk drives are already low-level formatted, with any bad-track er- rors entered, when shipped by the drive manufacturer.
  • Page 34: Installing Expansion Cards

    Installing Expansion Cards The G586IPV system board is equipped with 4 dedicated PCI slots and 3 dedicated 16-bit ISA slots. All PCI slots are bus masters. Due to the size of the CPU with its accompanying fan/heatsink compo- nent, the length of the add-in cards in PCI slot 4 and ISA slot 1 is limited to 18cm (7.07", measured from the bracket of the card).
