[. . . ] 1 Electronic Emission Notices Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement (305998) This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with instructions contained in this manual, may cause harmful interference to radio and television communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. [. . . ] To prevent damage caused by static electricity, discharge the static electricity from your body before you touch any of the computers electronic components. Technical Reference Booklet 5 Motherboard Layout The following diagrams show the relative positions of the jumpers, connectors, major components and memory banks on the motherboard. 8995X0XX NOTE 1) 2) Be sure to check the cable orientation in order to match the colored strip to the pin 1 end of the connector. When you start up the system, please wait for 5 seconds after you power on AC. Hardware Configuration 6 Jumper Settings This chapter explains how to configure the motherboard's hardware. Before using your computer, make sure all jumpers and DRAM modules are set correctly. Refer to this chapter whenever in doubt.

Make sure the clips at either end of the socket are pushed away from the socket. Align the two small notches in the bottom edge of the DIMM with the keys in the socket. When the DIMM is seated, push down on the top edge of the DIMM until the retaining clips at the ends of the socket snap into place. Turn system power off before installing and removing any device, otherwise you'll cause the system damage. Technical Reference Booklet 9 Installing a New Processor An upgrade processor can dramatically increase general system speed and performance. Most microprocessor upgrade kits include the following items: · Microprocessor chip · Installation instructions and technical data Your system may have these features built in, or support them as upgrades. To Install a Processor to ZIF Socket To install the processor, follow these steps: 1. If the system microprocessor is already on the motherboard socket, you need to remove it from the motherboard socket. The socket is a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket which has a metal arm at one side. Carefully grasp this arm, move it horizontally away from the socket and lift it up. Eventually you will be able to lift the chip straight up out of the socket. Be careful not to bend any of the pins when removing the microprocessor chip from its socket. Carefully align the processor with the correct orientation to the socket on the motherboard. Carefully insert the processor into the socket, and move the metal arm downward to replace it in its original position. Connect the Processor Fan Connector There is a fan attached the processor to prevent the overheating. Connect the processor fan cable to the fan connector that located on the motherboard near the processor and ensure the fan can operate. Otherwise the CPU can overheat and cause damage to both CPU and motherboard. Hardware Setup 10 BIOS SETUP This chapter discusses Award's Setup Program built into the ROM BIOS. The Setup Program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This special information is then stored in battery-backed RAM, which retains the setup information when the power is turned off. Starting Setup The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you turn on the computer. The BIOS reads the system information contained in the CMOS and begins the process of checking out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating system. [. . . ] A message will be displayed to confirm that the password is disabled. PASSWORD DISABLED. Once the password is disabled, the system will reset and you can enter the Setup Program freely. When a password is enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try to enter setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any setting of your system configuration. In addition, when a password is enabled, you can require the BIOS to request a password every time your system is rebooted. [. . . ]
