III. INSTALLATION
3.
Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard provides a 387-pin ZIF Socket 8.
The CPU that came
with the motherboard should have a fan attached to it to prevent
overheating.
If this is not the case then purchase a fan before you turn on
your system.
Apply thermal jelly to the CPU top and then install the fan
onto the CPU.
WARNING:
Without a fan, the CPU can overheat and cause damage
to both the CPU and the motherboard.
(See page 24 "CPU Cooling
Fan Connector").
To install a CPU, locate the ZIF socket and open it by first pulling the lever
sideways away from the socket's "Lock" then upwards to a 90-degree right
angle.
Insert the CPU with the correct orientation as shown.
Look to see
that the pins are more dense on one half compared to the other half.
The
picture is for reference only, you should have a CPU fan that will cover the
face of the CPU.
With the added weight of the CPU fan, no force is required
to insert the CPU.
Once completely inserted, hold down on the fan and
close the socket's lever.
IMPORTANT:
You must set the "CPU External Clock (BUS) Frequency
Selection" and "CPU to BUS Frequency Ratio" depending on the CPU
that you install.
