Thank you for buying an Advantech AIMB-564 motherboard! The motherboard delivers a host of new features and latest technologies, making it another standout in the long line of Advantech motherboards! Before you start installing the motherboard, and hardware devices on it, check the items in your package with the list below.
1.3 Before you Proceed Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard settings. Caution! 1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component. 2. Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.
1.4 Motherboard Overview Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chas- sis to ensure that the motherboard fits into it. Warning! Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.
1.5 Central Processing Unit (CPU) The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for the Intel® Core™2 Extreme/Core™2 Duo/Pentium® D/Pentium® 4 and Celeron® D processors. Note: 1. Make sure the AC power is off before you install the CPU. 2.
Installing the CPU To install a CPU: Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard. Figure 1.4: AIMB-564 CPU socket 775 Note: Before installing the CPU, make sure that the cam box is facing towards you and the load lever is on your left.
Page 23
Lift the load lever in the direction of the arrow to a 135° angle. Lift the load plate with your thumb and forefinger to a 100° angle (A), then push the PnP cap from the load plate window to remove (B).
Page 24
The CPU fits in only one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU into the socket to prevent bending the connectors on the socket and damaging the CPU! Close the load plate (A), then push the load lever (B) until it snaps into the retention tab. AIMB-564 User Manual...
If installing a dual-core CPU, connect the chassis fan cable to the CHA_FAN1 connector to ensure system stability. Note: The motherboard supports Intel® LGA775 processors with Intel® Enhanced Memory 64 Technology (EM64T), Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology (EIST), and Hyper- Threading Technology. 1.5.2 Installing the CPU Heatsink and Fan The Intel®...

1.6 System Memory 1.6.1 Overview The motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) sockets. A DDR2 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR DIMM but has a 240-pin footprint compared to the 184-pin DDR DIMM. DDR2 DIMMs are notched differently to prevent installation on a DDR DIMM socket.
4. If you install a Windows® XP 32-bit operating system, a total memory of less than 3GB is recommended. 5. This motherboard does not support memory modules made up of 128 Mb chips or double sided x16 memory modules. AIMB-564 User Manual...
Note: Notes on memory limitations: 1. Due to chipset limitations, this motherboard can only support up to 8 GB on the operating sys- tems listed below. You may install a maximum of 2 GB DIMMs on each slot, but only DDR2- 533 and DDR2-667 2 GB density modules are available for this configuration.
Note: Support the DIMM lightly with your fin- gers when pressing the retaining clips. The DIMM might get dam- aged if it flips out with extra force. DDR2 DIMM notch 2. Remove the DIMM from the socket. AIMB-564 User Manual...
