Step 1:CPU Installation
Step 1: Remove the protection cap
from the CPU socket and keep
the cap well.
Step 2: Pull the socket locking lever out
from the socket and then raise
the lever up to a 90-degree
angle.
Step 3: Look for the triangular cut edge on
socket, and the golden dot on CPU
should point forwards this triangular
cut edge. The CPU will fit only in the
correct orientation.
Step 4: Hold the CPU down firmly, and
then lower the lever to locked
the position.
AM2 CPU Socket
Supports AMD Sempron / Athlon 64 /
Athlon 64 FX / Althlon 64 X2 processor
FSB: Supports up to 1GHz Bandwidth
Step 2:Memory Installation
Step 1: Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward. Align a
DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the break
on the Slot.
DDR2 DIMM Slot x2
Supports DDR2 533/667/800
Each DIMM supports 256MB /
512MB / 1GB / 2GB DDR2
Max Memory Capicity is 4GB
Step 2: Insert the DIMM vertically and firmly into the slot until the retaining chip
snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.
Step 3:Power Connection
The Occasion to Clear CMOS
1. Forgot the supervisor/user password preset in the BIOS menu.
2. Unable to boot up the system because the CPU clock was incorrectly set in the
BIOS menu.
3. The CMOS data becomes corrupted.

CAUTION
Our RMA policy only accepts the mainboard comes with the cap on the
CPU socket, so please keep the protection cap well after installation. We
will not be responsible for any damage to the pin-leg of the CPU socket
resulting from misplacement/loss/incorrect removal of the protection cap.
24-pin ATX Power (JATXPWR1)
JATXPWR1 is the main power supply connector located along the edge of the
board next to the CPU socket. Firmly plug the power supply cable into the con-
nector and make sure it is secure.
Step 5: Place the heatsink and fan assembly
onto the retention frame. Match the
heatsink clip with the socket
mounting-lug. Hook the spring clip to
the mounting-lug.
Step 6: On the other side, push the retention
clip straight down to lock into the plastic
lug on the retention frame, and then
press down the locker util it stops.
Note:
Do not forget to connect the CPU fan connector. For further information, please refer
to
Step 3:Power Connection
.
CPU Fan Power (JCFAN1)
JCFAN1 supports 4-pin head connector. When connecting with wires onto con-
nectors, please note that the black wire is Ground and should be connected to
pin#1(Ground).
4-pin ATX Power (JATXPWR2)
JATXPWR2, the 4-pin ATX 12V power connection, is used to provide power to the
CPU. Align the pins to the connector and press firmly until seated.
Installation Complete
Follow the three steps to
finish CPU, memory, and
power installation, and
the whole motherboard
