Install the Processor
This mainboard is installed with a socket-7, and so it may be
installed with any of the socket-7 processors including the Intel
P55C (MMX) series, the Cyrix/IBM 6x86L/6x86MX/M-II series,
the AMD K6/K6-2/K6-III series, and the IDT C6/Winchip 2/2A
series. The mainboard supports system bus speeds of 60, 66, 75,
83, 95, 100 MHz.
The board supports CPU plug and play, so it can automatically run
the installed processor with the correct clock speed and the correct
system bus frequency. To automatically configure the processor,
use the BIOS setup program to select the CPU speed and system
bus frequency. See chapter three for more information.
To ensure reliability, make sure that your socket-7 processor is
fitted with a heatsink/cooling fan assembly.
The socket-7 processor installs into the ZIF (Zero Insertion Force)
socket-7 on the mainboard.
1. Locate the socket-7 and FAN1. Pull the locking lever out from
the socket and swing it to the upright position.
2. On the socket-7 processor, identify the pin-1 corner by noting
that it has a slight bevel.
