Installing a PPGA Celeron in the Socket-370
This mainboard is installed with a PGA370 ZIF processor socket. This
socket will only support the PPGA Celeron processor.
Do not try to insert
a socket-7 processor such as a Pentium or Pentium-compatible
processor
. The PPGA Celeron processors all run over a 66 MHz system
bus and have internal clock speeds ranging from 300 to 433 MHz.
Configuration of the processor is made automatically using the
mainboard BIOS (see the Setup chapter).
1. Locate the zero insertion force (ZIF) PGA370 socket for the
processor.
2. On the socket and on the processor, identify the pin 1 corner. On the
socket, the pin-1 corner is opposite the hinge of the locking lever,
and it has one hole missing from the corner. On the processor, the
pin-1 corner has a slight bevel.
3. Push the socket locking lever away from the socket to unhook it.
Swing the lever into the upright position.
4. Insert the processor into the socket taking care that you have
matched the pin 1 corners. No force is required, and the processor
should seat smoothly into the socket.
5. Swing the locking lever down and hook it under the latch on the side
of the socket to lock it in place.
6. Locate the power connector for the processor cooling fan CPU FAN1.
If your processer has a cooling fan installed, connect the cable from
the cooling fan to CPU FAN1.
