Heat Sink
Follow the instructions that came with your processor or heat sink to
attach a heat sink to the processor. Your heat sink should have a 3-pin
fan, which connects to the CPU FAN header. Make sure that good
contact is made between the CPU chip and the heat sink. Insufficient
contact will cause the processor to overheat, which may crash the
system.
Processor
You are now ready to install the processor. Your motherboard has a 370-
pin, FCPGA type socket, which supports Single Pentium
TM
III FCPGA 500
MHz-1.26+ GHz processors at front bus speeds of 133/100 MHz, and single
FCPGA and FCPGA2 Celeron
TM
processors at 100/66 MHz front side bus
speeds. Lift the lever on the FCPGA socket and install with the notched
corner of the processor oriented with pin 1. Fully seat the processor into
the socket and then close the lever.
2-2 Processor Installation
When handling the processor package, avoid placing
direct pressure on the label area of the fan.
The following pages cover the installation procedure. You should install the
processor in the motherboard first, then install the motherboard in the chas-
sis, then the memory and add-on cards, and finally the cables and drivers.
Following the installation procedures in the order they appear in this chap-
ter should eliminate the most common problems encountered when installing
a system.
IMPORTANT: Always connect the power cord last and always re-
move it before adding, removing or changing any hardware compo-
