Important notes Important notes With the mainboard installed you must open the system to access the mainboard. How to dismantle and reassemble the system is described in the operating manual accompanying the system. Connecting cables for peripherals must be adequately insulated to avoid interference. Observe the safety notes in the operating manual of your system.
Silent Fan A micro controller developed by Fujitsu Siemens Computers monitors and controls the fans in the PC and thus prevents any unnecessary noise annoyance. Should the processor become in spite of full turning ventilator too hot, then the processor clock rate will automatically be reduced so that the system continues to run stably.

USB Security is a BIOS function that offers protection against unauthorised access regardless of the operating system used. If USB Security is activated, the system can only be started, if the MemoryBird of Fujitsu Siemens Computers is connected to one of the existing USB-ports.
Brief instructions on installing mainboard If you have purchased a separate mainboard, you can install it in your system in accordance with the following brief instructions. The activities described here assume a basic knowledge of PCs and cannot be carried out by a layperson.

Add-on modules / Upgrading Exit energy-saving mode, switch off the system and remove the power plug from the mains outlet, before carrying out any of the procedures described in this chapter! Even when you have switched off the device, parts (e.g. memory modules, AGP and PCI extension boards) are still supplied with power.

Replacing processor Mounting heat sink Be sure to use heat conducting material between the processor and the heat sink. If a heat conducting pad (rubber-like foil) is already applied to the heat sink, then use it. Otherwise you must apply a very thin layer of heat conducting paste. Heat conducting pads can only be used once.
Upgrading main memory Upgrading main memory Technical data Technology: DDR 333 or DDR 400 unbuffered DIMM modules 184-Pin; 2.5 V; 64 Bit, with and without ECC Size: 128 Mbyte to 4 Gbyte 333 DDR-SDRAM 128 Mbyte to 4 Gbyte 400 DDR-SDRAM Granularity: 128, 256, 512 or 1024 Mbyte for one socket At least one memory module must be installed.

Upgrading main memory Installing a memory module Push the holders on each side of the memory slot outwards. Ê Insert the memory module into the location (1). Ê At the same time flip the lateral holders upwards until the memory module snaps in place (2). Ê...
Upgrading AGP screen controllers Upgrading AGP screen controllers Technical data: The AGP slot supports the modes 4x/8x with 32 bits and 66 MHz. Only 1.5 V AGP graphics cards are supported. Some older 3.3 V AGP graphics cards are coded like 1.5 V AGP graphics cards. The installation of such 3.3 V AGP graphics cards can cause serious damage to the mainboard and the AGP graphics cards.

Adding PCI cards Multifunctional expansion cards or expansion cards with integrated PCI-PCI bridge: These expansion cards require up to four PCI interrupts: INT A, INT B, INT C, INT D. How many and which of these interrupts are used is specified in the documentation provided with the card. The assignment of the PCI interrupts to the PCI IRQ Lines is shown in the following table: Controller or slot INT Mechanical slot...
Adding PCI cards Replacing the lithium battery In order to permanently save the system information, a lithium battery is installed to provide the CMOS-memory with a current. A corresponding error message notifies the user when the charge is too low or the battery is empty. The lithium battery must then be replaced. Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion! The lithium battery may be replaced only with an identical battery or with a type recommended by the manufacturer.
BIOS update BIOS update When should a BIOS update be carried out? Fujitsu Siemens Computers makes new BIOS versions available to ensure compatibility to new operating systems, new software or new hardware. In addition, new BIOS functions can also be integrated.
Intel refers to the use of the processor without microcode updates as operation outside the specifications. Safety for processor on Fujitsu Siemens Computers mainboards If the processor uses an old or incorrect microcode, error-free operation cannot be ensured. Fujitsu Siemens Computers has therefore implemented a function on its mainboards that interrupts the booting process if no suitable microcode is available for the installed processor.
Drivers Microcode update under DOS with bootable microcode update floppy disk - brief description Download the update file from out website to your PC. Ê Insert an empty floppy disk (1.44 Mbyte). Ê Run the update file under DOS (e.g. 1683101.EXE ). Ê...
