If your mainboard has already been installed in your computer you may still need
to refer to this chapter if you plan to upgrade your system's hardware.
This mainboard is electrostatic sensitive. Do not thouch without wearing
proper safety gudget and make sure to disconnect the power cable from the
power source before performing any work on your mainboard . Not doing
so may result in electrical shock!
2-1 Installing a CPU Processor in Socket A
The Socket A, designed for AMD Athlon/Duron processors, has been incorporated
as a standard mainboard specification. To insert your CPU into Socket A please do
the following:
1. Locate a small dot marked on the top surface of the CPU close to one if it's
corners. The same corner will also be cut off, leaving a noticeable notch in
the CPU's corner. These markings indicate Pin 1 of the CPU.
2. Pull up the lever of Socket 462 so that it is perpendicular with the surface of
the mainboard. Gently insert the CPU with Pin 1 at the same corner of Socket 462
that contains the end of the lever. Allow the weight of the CPU to push itself into
place. Do not apply extra pressure as doing so may result in damaging your CPU.
Snap the lever back into place.
Installing a heat sink with cooling fan is necessary for proper heat dissipation
from your CPU. Failing to install these items may result in overheating and
possible burn-out of your CPU.

Frequency Configuration
If you install a CPU on this mainboard, you must set
JP20
for CPU Bus Frequency.
You may also select (fine tune) the external clock frequency according to your
processor
SW1
(See Section 2-4).
* CPU Speed = Frequency ratio x External clock (System) Frequency
You do not need to make voltage settings because SeePU automatically sets
your CPU voltage.
