  • Page 20: Tips On Installing Motherboard In Chassis

    2.4 - Tips on Installing Motherboard in Chassis Before installing your motherboard, make sure your chassis has the necessary motherboard support studs installed. These studs are usually metal and are gold in color. Usually, the chassis manufacturer will pre-install the support studs. If you are unsure of stud placement, simply lay the motherboard inside the chassis and align the screw holes of the motherboard to the studs inside the case.

  • Page 21: Installing The Memory

    2.5 - Installing the Memory Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with the motherboard and processor. Only DDRII-800/667 DIMM modules are required. Check the TYAN Web site at: www.tyan.com for details of the type of memory recommended for your motherboard.
  • Page 22 Memory Installation Procedure Follow these instructions to install memory modules into the S5220. Press the locking levers in the direction shown in the following illustration. Align the memory module with the socket. The memory module is keyed to fit only one way in the socket. Key slot Seat the module firmly into the socket by gently pressing down until it sits flush with the socket.

  • Page 23: Installing The Processor And Cooling Fan

    2.6 - Installing the Processor and Cooling Fan Your S5220 supports the latest processor technologies from Intel. Check the TYAN website for latest processor support: http://www.tyan.com Processor Installation (LGA 775 Socket) The processor should be installed carefully. Make sure you are wearing an antistatic strap and handle the processor as little as possible.
  • Page 24 Remove the PnP cap from the load plate. PnP cap Replace the load plate and return the locking lever to the locking position. The CPU installation is now complete. Cooling Fan Installation After you have installed the processor, the heatsink should be installed to ensure that the processor runs efficiently and does not overheat.
  • Page 25 Turn the board upside down and insert the heat sink spring mechanism as shown. Align the heatsink with the four holes around the processor socket. Press the heatsink down until the four screws are securely seated in the holes. Use screw drive to secure the four screws.

  • Page 71: Glossary

    Glossary ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface): a power management specification that allows the operating system to control the amount of power distributed to the computer’s devices. Devices not in use can be turned off, reducing unnecessary power expenditure. AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port): a PCI-based interface which was designed specifically for demands of 3D graphics applications.
  • Page 72 Bus: a data pathway. The term is used especially to refer to the connection between the processor and system memory, and between the processor and PCI or ISA local buses. Bus mastering: allows peripheral devices and IDEs to access the system memory without going through the CPU (similar to DMA channels).
  • Page 73 IRQs, it is vital that you do not double up devices on a single line. Plug-n-Play devices will take care of this for you. Doze mode: in this mode, only the CPU’s speed is slowed. DRAM (Dynamic RAM): widely available, very affordable form of RAM which has the unfortunate tendency to lose data if it is not recharged regularly (every few milliseconds).
  • Page 74 Enhanced IDEs (EIDEs), with maximum capacity determined by the hardware controller. I/O (Input/Output): the connection between your computer and another piece of hardware (mouse, keyboard, etc.) Initial Program Load (IPL): a feature built into BBS-compliant devices, describing those devices as capable of loading and executing an OS, as well as being able to provide control back to the BIOS if the loading attempt fails.
  • Page 75 PM timers (Power Management timers): software timers that count down the number of seconds or minutes until the system times out and enters sleep, suspend, or doze mode. PnP (Plug-n-Play): a design standard that has become ascendant in the industry. Plug-n-Play devices require little set-up to use.
  • Page 76 design, with cables that are simpler to route and install, smaller cable connectors, and lower voltage requirements. SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic RAM): called as such because it can keep two sets of memory addresses open simultaneously. By transferring data alternately from one set of addresses and then the other, SDRAM cuts down on the delays associated with non-synchronous RAM, which must close one address bank before opening the next.
