    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.

  • Page 21: Mounting The Motherboard

    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 22: 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 23 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 24: Installing The Processor And Cooling Fan

    2.6 - Installing the Processor and Cooling Fan Your S5392 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 25 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. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 26: Attaching Drive Cables

    Attaching Serial ATA Cables The S5392 is also equipped with 6 Serial ATA (SATA) channels. Connections for these drives are also very simple. There is no need to set Master/Slave jumpers on SATA drives. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 27 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...
  • Page 28: Installing Add-In Cards

    It is better to try another slot or return the faulty card rather than damaging both the motherboard and the add-in card. YOU MUST ALWAYS unplug the power connector from the motherboard before performing system hardware changes. NOTE Otherwise you may damage the board and/or expansion device. http://www.tyan.com...

    The S5392 requires an EPS12V (24 pin + 8 pin +4 pin) power supply to boot. Please be aware that ATX 2.x and ATXGES power supplies are not compatible with the board and can damage the motherboard and/or CPU(s). PWR1 PWRCPU PWR2 http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 32 A 700W power is sufficient for systems without many devices (i.e. 1 hard drive, 1 optical drive, and 1 or 2 expansion cards) however a higher wattage solution may be needed if the system is fully loaded. Refer to the www.tyan.com website for further information. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 33: Finishing Up

    In the rare circumstance that you have experienced difficulty, you can find help by asking your vendor for assistance. If they are not available for assistance, please find setup information and documentation online at our website or by calling your vendor’s support line. http://www.tyan.com...

  • Page 35 The best advice is to only alter settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular, do not change settings in the Chipset section unless you are sure of the outcome. TYAN or your system manufacturer has carefully chosen the chipset defaults for best performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small change to the Chipset setup options may cause the system to become unstable or unusable.
