(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the antistatic bag. Unplug the power from your computer power supply and then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). For the safest conditions, Tyan recommends wearing a static safety wrist strap. -

Page 13: Mounting The Motherboard
If there are any studs missing, you will know right away since the motherboard will not be able to be securely installed. Some chassis’ include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are usable, Tyan recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard more securely in place. -
Page 14: Installing The Memory
133MHz. For this, PC2100 DDR modules are required. Critically important is whether you’re using the recommended memory for the current board you have. For this information, please check Tyan’s web site at: www.tyan.com The following diagrams show some types of DDR modules you may encounter:... - Page 15 Memory Installation Procedure The Thunder i7501 Xtreme requires that memory modules be installed in pairs. Please refer to the next page for exact details on installing memory modules correctly. When installing memory modules, make sure the modules align properly with the memory socket.
- Page 16 When installing modules, install them in this order: A1, B1, A2, B2, etc. The Thunder i7501 Xtreme supports up to 12GB of memory with 2GB registered DDR 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, and 2GB Registered PC2100/PC1600 DDR SDRAM memory modules are supported in x4 or x8 configuration Use ONLY x8 OR x4 type memory modules.

Page 19: Attaching Drive Cables
Attaching IDE drive cabling is simple. These cables are “keyed” to only allow them to be connected in the correct manner. Tyan motherboards have two on-board IDE channels, each supporting two drives. The black connector designates the Primary channel, while the white connector designates the Secondary channel. - Page 20 Usually signifies that the cable on the drive is on backwards, which is a common issue. Drive activity light is constantly on Reverse the cable at the floppy drive end and try again. http://www.TYAN.com...

Page 21: Installing Add-In Cards
Before Continuing onto section 2.11 – Connecting External Devices, make sure everything is properly connected. Things like jumpers and case wiring are the most common causes of troubleshooting frustrations, both for the end-user and for any company doing technical support. http://www.TYAN.com... -
Page 22: Connecting External Devices
The following diagram will detail the ATX port stack for the following board: S2726 Thunder i7501 Xtreme At times, the PS/2 ports for keyboard and mice may be mixed up. Simply remember that the port that is closest to the motherboard belongs to the keyboard and the one on top belongs to the mouse. -
Page 23: Finishing Up
In the rare circumstance that you have experienced difficulty, you can find help by asking your vendor for assistance. If they are not available for assistance, please find setup information and documentation online at our website or by calling your vendor’s support line. http://www.TYAN.com... -

(hard drive, CD-ROM, etc). If one is found, the BIOS will launch that operating system and hand control over to it. You can enter the BIOS setup by pressing the [Delete ] key when the machine boots up and begins to show the memory count. http://www.TYAN.com... - Page 25 The best advice is to only alter settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular, do not change settings in the Chipset section unless you are absolutely sure of the outcome. Tyan or your system manufacturer for the best performance and reliability carefully chose the Chipset defaults.

SRAM instead of in the slow DRAM. Note that the cache is also much smaller than your regular memory: a typical cache size is 512KB, while you may have as much as 4GB of regular memory. http://www.TYAN.com... - Page 38 EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM): also called Flash BIOS, is a ROM chip which can, unlike normal ROM, be updated. This allows you to keep up with changes in the BIOS programs without having to buy a new chip. TYAN’s BIOS updates can be found at http://www.TYAN.com EMRL: Embedded RAID Logic.
- Page 39 Form factor: an industry term for the size, shape, power supply type, and external connector type of the Personal Computer Board (PCB) or motherboard. The standard form factors are the AT and ATX, although TYAN also makes some Baby-AT and ATX Footprint boards. Global timer: onboard hardware timer, such as the Real-Time Clock (RTC).

- Page 41 ZIF Socket (Zero Insertion Force socket): these sockets make it possible to insert CPUs without damaging the sensitive CPU pins. The CPU is lightly placed in an open ZIF socket, and a lever is pulled down. This shift the processor over and down, guiding into the board and locking it into place. http://www.TYAN.com...
