Make certain that you do not miss any pins because if you do, you will void your
warranty and cause damage to yourself or your motherboard when you turn the
system on. After connecting the power, make sure the connector is seated firmly
into its socket so it will not become loose or fall off when the computer is jostled
or moved.
You are done!
Other than checking the jumper settings and cable connections and putting the
case back on, you are done. Installing a new motherboard may sound difficult,
but by following these directions, you should have a fairly uneventful time
installing our products. If you do encounter problems, your dealer will be able to
help you, or you can consult one of our many technical support resources (see
page 8).
Frequently Asked Questions
Q:
My system sometimes becomes unstable. How should I check the system?
A:
The first thing to do is to check and see if you have any device conflict in ess,
IRQ, or DMA. If you are using Windows 98/2000, the Device Manager is a good
place to start. Please consult your operating system manual for details. Second of
all, slowing down the memory timing in the BIOSs chipset setup section will help
the situation, as well. Many memory modules are not suitable for high perfor-
mance systems and are probably the main source of your problem.
