Installation Instructions
This section covers Jumper Settings, Processor Installation, Expansion cards, External
Connectors and Memory Configuration. Refer to the mainboard layout chart for locations of
all the jumpers, external connectors, slots and I/O ports. Furthermore, this section lists all
necessary connector pin assignments for your reference. The particular state of the jump-
ers, connectors and ports are illustrated in the following figures. Before setting the jumpers
or inserting these connectors, please pay attention to the directions.
Jumper Settings
Jumper settings are located on the mainboard. Pin 1 of all jumpers are located on the side
with a thick white line (Pin 1 ), referring to the mainboard silkscreen. Jumpers
with two pins will be shown graphically as for close and
for open. Jump-
ers with three pins will be shown as to represent pin1& pin2 connected and
to represent pin2 & pin3 connected.
Clock Multiple Selection (JX4,JX3,JX2,JX1)
These jumpers set the frequency ratio between the Internal frequency of the CPU
and the external frequency (namely the Front Side Bus). The system can deter-
mine the external frequency (FSB) of the CPU automatically. The Front Side Bus
multiplied by the Clock Multiple equals the CPU’ s frequency.
Be sure to unplug the AC power supply before adding or removing expansion cards
or other system peripherals, otherwise your mainboard and expansion cards might
be severely damaged.
