  • Page 14: 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 15: 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 diagram shows the types of RAM modules you may encounter depending on your board: http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 16 Memory Installation Procedure The Tiger i7500 S2722 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 17 Use ONLY x8 or x4 type memory modules. Mixing memory types affects stability. 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, and 2GB Registered ECC PC2100/PC1600 DDR SDRAM memory modules a re supported in x4 or x8 configuration. The Tiger i7500 S2722 supports up to 8GB of memory with 2GB registered DDR modules. http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 18 2.10 – Installing the Processor and Heatsink Your Tiger i7500 S2722 supports the latest processor technologies from Intel. C heck the following page on TYAN’s website for latest processor support: http://www.Tyan.com The following diagrams will detail how to install your processor(s): The processors you choose to use may not look exact ly like the one pictured above, nor will the socket look exactly the same.
  • Page 19 Note: The CPU shown below is only a representation. It may or may not look exactly like the ones on your motherboard. The following diagram will illustrate how to install the most common heatsinks: Align the heatsink mounting bracket to the holes around the processor socket Insert Black securing peg into bracket holes http://www.TYAN.com...

  • Page 21: 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 Seconda ry channel.
  • Page 22 Usually signifies that the cable on the drive is on backwards, which is a common issue. Drive activity light is consta ntly on Reverse the cable at the floppy drive end and try again. http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 23: Installing Add -In Cards

    This allows air to more easily circulate within the chassis, prov iding improved cooling for all installed devices. YOU MUST unplug the power connector to the motherboard before performing NOTE system hardware changes, to avoid damaging the board or expansion device. http://www.TYAN.com...
