Installation Steps; Set Jumpers On The Motherboard - Intel YM430TX User Manual

Installation Steps

Before using your computer, you must complete the following steps:

1. Set jumpers on the motherboard.

2. Install memory modules.
3. Install the processor.
4. Install expansion cards.
5. Connect ribbon cables, cabinet wires, and power supply.
6. Set up the BIOS software.
1. Set Jumpers on the Motherboard.
Several hardware settings are made by using jumper caps to connect jumper pins
(JP) on the motherboard. See the motherboard layout on page 12 for locations of
jumpers. The jumper settings are described numerically , such as [----], [1-2], [2-3].
For no connection, connect pins 1 and 2 and connect pins 2 and 3. Pin 1 is always
Pin 1
on top or on the left
connector away from you. A "1" is written beside pin 1 on jumpers with three pins.
The jumpers are also shown graphically such as
to connect pins 2&3. Jumpers with two pins are shown as
and for open (off). For manufacturing simplicity, the jumpers may be sharing
pins from other groups. Use the diagrams in this manual instead of following the
pin layout on the board. Settings with two jumper numbers require that both jump-
ers be moved together. To connect the pins, simply place a plastic jumper cap over
the two pins as diagrammed.
WARNING! Computer motherboards and components contain very delicate
integrated circuit (IC) chips. To protect the motherboard and other compo-
nents against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precau-
tions whenever you work on your computer.
1. Unplug your computer before working on the inside.
2. Use a grounded wrist strap when handling computer components. If you do
not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a
metal object, such as the power supply case.
3. Hold components by the edges and try not to touch the IC chips, leads, or
circuitry.
4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with
the component whenever the components are separated from the system.
