2-2 Installing a CPU in a Socket 370
The Intel Socket 370, designed for the Celeron/Coppermine processor, has been
incorporated as a standard mainboard specification To insert your CPU into Socket
370 please do the following:
1. Locate a small dot marked on the top surface of the CPU close to one if it's corners.
The same corner will also be cut off, leaving a noticeable notch in the CPU's corner.
These markings indicate Pin 1 of the CPU.
2. Pull up the lever of Socket 370 so that it is perpendicular with the surface of the
mainboard. Gently insert the CPU with Pin 1 at the same corner of Socket 370
that contains the end of the lever. Allow the the weight of the CPU to push itself
into place. Do not apply extra pressure as doing so may result in damaging your
CPU. Snap the lever back into place.
Installing a heat sink with cooling fan is necessary for proper heat dissipation
from your CPU. Failing to install these items may result in overheating and
possible burn-out of your CPU.

Frequency Configuration
If you install a CPU on this mainboard, you must set JP5/JP6 for CPU External Bus
Frequency (See Figure 2-2 below)

You do not need to make frequency ratio and voltage settings because this
board will automatically sets your CPU frequency ratio and voltage.
