Chapter 2: Board Installation 2.1 Installation Once you’ve checked that everything is inside the box (see p. 4 for details), you will then be ready to install your motherboard. The mounting hole pattern of the motherboard matches the ATX board specifi- cations, so your chassis must be capable of supporting an Extended ATX board (check the motherboard dimensions provided on p. 8). 2.2 How to install our products right.. the first time. Question: what’s the first thing I should do? The first thing

2.4 Quick References for Jumpers In this manual, the term “closed” and “on” are used when referring to jumpers (or jumper pins) that are active; “open” and “off” are used when referring to jumpers (or jumper pins) that are inactive. See Figure 2.0a and Figure 2.0c for examples of “on” and “off” pins and jumpers. Jumpers and pins are connected by slipping the plastic jumper connector over the top of two adjacent jumper pins (indicated by 1-2 or 2-3). The metal rod inside the plastic shell bridges

2.6-C. CPU Front Side Bus Jumpers (J48, J49; J52, J53) (READ NOTE BELOW) With these jumpers, the CPU FSB can be set to either 200 or 266MHz. YOU MUST SET THESE JUMPERS FOR PROPER CPU OPERATION. If your CPU can only run at 200MHz, altering these FSB jumpers will not make the CPU run at 266MHz. NOTE: Tyan takes no reponsibility and will not be held liable for damage related to opera- tion of the CPU using different settings from those of the CPU manufacturer’s specified default settings. You MUST

2.7 Mounting the Motherboard into the Chassis Your chassis may include mounting hardware. If mounting hardware was included, you can use the fol- lowing examples to help you in installing your motherboard into the chassis. If your chassis has the studs integrated into the chassis wall, then you would only need to use screws (possibly included with your chassis) to install the motherboard. See the examples (Figure 2.0, shown below) for more details. If the chassis includes mounting hardware wit

2.8 Installing Memory Please keep in mind that although some memory modules may appear to be high-quality, they may con- tain inferior or substandard parts. The type of memory you choose to install should be checked against the memory compatibility list, which is available from Tyan’s website at http://www.tyan.com Here are some details of memory installation for this board: At least one REGISTERED DDR DIMM* must be installed for the system to POST. Supports 128MB, 256MB, 512MB**, & 1024MB** PC1

Lock the DIMM into place by pushing the clips back on either end of the socket onto the Step 3 notches in the ends of the DIMM (see pictures below for details). 1 2 Removing a DIMM Removing a DIMM is just the reverse: pull back the clips from the DIMM (see pictures below), and care- fully pull the module straight out. Place the DIMMs in an anti-static bag as soon as you remove them to avoid static damage. 1 2 http://www.tyan.com 20
