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. (2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the board, or flex the board in any way. -

If there are any studs missing, you will know right away since the motherboard will not be able to be securely installed. http://www.tyan.com... - Page 22 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. Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and how they should be installed.

Page 23: Installing The Processor(S)
2.6 - Installing the Processor(s) Your S5396 supports the latest processor technologies from Intel. Check the TYAN website for latest processor support: http://www.tyan.com Processor Installation The processor should be installed carefully. Make sure you are wearing an antistatic strap and handle the processor as little as possible. - Page 24 Turn the board upside down and insert the heat sink spring mechanism as shown. The heat sink spring may be already pre-installed by the manufacturer. Turn the board the right way up again and screw the heat sink into place. Repeat this procedure for the second processor. http://www.tyan.com...
- Page 25 (which should already be attached to the heatsink) to the motherboard. The following diagram illustrates how to connect fans onto the motherboard. After you have finished installing all the fans you can connect your drives (hard drives, CD-ROM drives, etc) to the motherboard. http://www.tyan.com...

Page 26: Installing The Memory
Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with the motherboard and processor. Only DDR2-533/667 FB-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 27: Memory Installation Procedure
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. The locking levers pop up into place. http://www.tyan.com... -
Page 28: Attaching Drive Cables
Connections for these drives are also very simple. There is no need to set Master/Slave jumpers on SATA drives. Tyan has supplied two SATA cables and one SATA power adapter. If you are in need of other cables or power adapters please contact your place of purchase. - Page 29 Attach first floppy drive (drive A:) to the end of the cable with the twist in it. Drive B: is usually connected to the next possible connector on the cable (the second or third connector after you install Drive A:). http://www.tyan.com...

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 75 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 76 RAID level 1 also allows for faster access time and fault-tolerance, since either hard drive can be read at the same time. RAID level 0+1 is both striping and mirroring, providing fault-tolerance, striping, and faster access all at the same time. http://www.tyan.com...
