Step 1
CPU Installation:
This mainboard supports Intel Pentium 4/Celeron Socket 478 series CPU.
Please follow the steps as follows to finish CPU installation.
Note the CPU orientation when you plug it into CPU socket.
1. Pull up the CPU socket lever to 90-degree angle.
2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for a black dot or cut edge on the CPU
upper interface. Match Pin 1 and cut edge, and insert the CPU into the
socket.
3. Press down the CPU socket lever and finish CPU installation.
4. Intel Pentium 4/Celeron processors require a set of heatsink and fan to cool
down the processor. You need to purchase a heatsink and fan if they are not
bundled with your CPU. Required is that install the set and plug its cable in
the CPU fan power connector. Note that there are kinds of CPU fan connec-
tors. Normally, if your mainboard supports a hardware monitoring function,
a 3-pin fan power connector can have your system detect the CPU fan's spe-
ed. A CPU fan with a 2-pin or 4-pin fan power connector does not support
the detection of the CPU fan's speed, and must directly be connected to the
system's power supply unit.
