Installation Steps
Before using your computer, you must complete the following steps:
1. Set Jumpers on the Motherboard
2. Install System Memory
3. Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
4. Install Expansion Cards
5. Connect Ribbon Cables, Cabinet Wires, and Power Supply
6. Setup the BIOS Software
1. Jumpers
Several hardware settings are made through the use of jumper caps to connect jumper
pins (JP) on the motherboard. See “Motherboard Layout” for locations of jumpers.
The jumper settings will be described numerically such as [----], [1-2], [2-3] for no
connection, connect pins 1&2, and connect pins 2&3 respectively. Pin 1 for our moth-
erboards is always on top
Pin 1
or on the left
Pin 1
when holding the motherboard with
the keyboard connector away from yourself. A “1” is written besides pin 1 on jumpers
with three pins. The jumpers will also be shown graphically such as to connect
pins 1&2 and to connect pins 2&3. Jumpers with two pins will be shown as
for Short (On) and for Open (Off). For manufacturing simplicity, the jump-
ers may be sharing pins from other groups. Use the diagrams in this manual instead of
following the pin layout on the board. Settings with two jumper numbers require that
both jumpers be moved together. To connect the pins, simply place a plastic jumper
cap over the two pins as diagramed.
WARNING! Computer motherboards, baseboards and components, such as SCSI
cards, contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against
damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you
work on your computer.
1. Unplug your computer when working on the inside.
2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do
not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a
metal object, such as the power supply case.
3. Hold components by the edges and try not to touch the IC chips, leads or
connectors, or other components.
4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with
the component whenever the components are separated from the system.
