    2.5 – Installing the Processor(s) Your Tempest i5000VS S5372-LH 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.

Repeat this procedure for the second processor socket. Turn the board upside down and insert the heat sink spring mechanism as shown.
  • Page 21 Repeat this procedure for the second processor. 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. Use the heatsink supplied for best results. Follow these instructions to install the heatsink shown. Apply some (a little will work, more doesn’t equal better performance) thermal compound to the top of the processor.

    Chapter 3: BIOS Setup 3.1. About the BIOS The BIOS is the basic input/output system, the firmware on the motherboard that enables your hardware to interface with your software. The BIOS determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. The BIOS contains all the code required to control the keyboard, display screen, disk drives, serial communications, and a number of miscellaneous functions.

  • Page 69: 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 70 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 71 EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM): also called Flash BIOS, is a ROM chip which can, unlike normal ROM, be updated. 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 72 IDE INT (IDE Interrupt): a hardware interrupt signal that goes to the IDE. 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 73 which means that larger packets of data are sent to the memory at one time, and acted upon quickly. This type of SRAM operates at bus speeds higher than 66MHz. Pipelining: improves system performance by allowing the CPU to begin executing a second instruction before the first is completed.
  • Page 74 ROM (Read-Only Memory): a storage chip which contains the BIOS; the basic instructions required to boot the computer and start up the operating system. SATA (Serial ATA): is an evolutionary replacement for the Parallel ATA physical storage interface. Serial ATA is a drop-in solution in that it is compatible with today’s software and operating systems.
  • Page 75 VGA (Video Graphics Array): the PC video display standard V-SYNC: controls the vertical scanning properties of the monitor. ZCR: Zero Channel RAID. PCI card that allows a RAID card to use the onboard SCSI chip, thus lowering cost of RAID solution ZIF Socket (Zero Insertion Force socket): these sockets make it possible to insert CPUs without damaging the sensitive CPU pins.
