III. INSTALLATION
Installation Steps
Before using your computer, you must complete the following steps:
1.
Set Jumpers on the Motherboard
2.
Install DRAM Modules
3.
Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
4.
Install Expansion Cards
5.
Connect Ribbon Cables, Cabinet Wires, and Power Supply
6.
Set Up the BIOS Software
1. Jumpers
Several hardware settings are made through the use of jumper caps to connect the
jumper pins on the motherboard. See layout of motherboard on page 12 for locations
of jumpers. The jumper settings will be described numerically, such as [----], [1-2],
[2-3] for no connection, connect pins 1 & 2, and connect pins 2 & 3, respectively.
Pin 1 is always on top
Pin 1
or on the left
Pin 1
when holding the motherboard with
the keyboard connector away from you. A “1” is written beside pin 1 on jumpers
with three pins. The jumpers will also be shown graphically as
to connect
pins 1 & 2 and
to connect pins 2 & 3. Jumpers with two pins will be shown as
for Short (On) and
for Open (Off). For manufacturing simplicity, the jump-
ers may be sharing pins from other groups. Use the diagrams in this manual instead
of following the pin layout on the board. Settings with two jumper numbers require
that both jumpers be moved together. To connect the pins, simply place a plastic
jumper cap over the two pins as diagramed.
WARNING!
Computer motherboards and components, such as sound cards, con-
tain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage
from static electricity, you must follow some precautions whenever you work on
your computer.
1.
Unplug your computer when working on the inside.
2.
Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do
not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a
metal object, such as the power supply case.
3.
Hold components by the edges and try not to touch the IC chips, leads, or
circuitry.
4.
Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with
the component whenever the components are separated from the system.
