4. Press the lever down. The top plate will slide forward. You will feel some resistance as the pressure starts to secure the CPU in the socket. This is normal and will not damage the CPU. The lever should snap into place at the side of the socket. S1470-001-01 http://www.tyan.com...
3.12 Upgrading Cache Memory The S1470 has 256Kb of on-board pipelined burst SRAM and can be upgraded to 512Kb by adding a Tyan approved 256Kb cache module. Please refer to your vendor for the approved upgrade modules. wRefer to page 9 for the cache jumper settings.
If a PCI-Bus interface card is to be installed in the system, any one of the five PCI-Bus slots can support either a Master or a Slave device. After installing the peripheral controllers, the user should check everything again, and prepare to power-on the system. S1470-001-01 http://www.tyan.com...
Orientate the connectors so the black wires are in the middle of the 5V power supply. Caution: Some power supplies also include "3V" connectors.

You can upgrade the BIOS of your mainboard by using a "Flash Memory Writer"(FMW) utility. This utility can be downloaded from Tyan's BBS(Consult your system vendor for the phone #) or web site. The system BIOS is stored on a 'flash' EPROM ROM chip on the mainboard which can be erased and reprogrammed by the FMW.

If you are not sure, try running FMW. If it runs, then you have suc- ceeded. If it displays a warning message about the CPU mode, you will have to try again. S1470-001-01 http://www.tyan.com...
