2-2 Installing a CPU in a Socket 370

The Intel Socket 370, designed for the Celeron and Coppermine processors, 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 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.

2-3 Setting Your CPU's Parameters

This board support plug and play CPU configuration, if you install a CPU on this
mainboard, the board will automatically detect and set CPU parameters. It is no longer
necessary to make many jumper settings as on conventional mainboards.
1. After installing all your hardware into your PC system, turn on your system's
power. Enter the CMOS Setup Utility by pressing the Delete key when your
BIOS identification screen appears.
2. Move the cursor to Frequency/Voltage Control Setup menu and press Enter. Find
the CPU bus frequency at the left hand side of the BIOS screen. Commands for
operating the cursor in BIOS are found at the Bottom right of the BIOS screen.
3. Set the CPU bus frequency according to your processor's specifications.
4. Press Esc to return to the CMOS Setup Utility, press F10 to Save and Exit Setup
and choose 'Y' to confirm. The system will automatically reboot and during startup
you will see the correct CPU type shown on the screen.
You do not need to make voltage settings because SeePU automatically
sets your CPU voltage.
