•

To prevent electrical shock hazard, disconnect the power cable from

the electrical outlet before relocating the system.

•

When adding or removing devices to or from the system, ensure that

the power cables for the devices are unplugged before the signal cables

are connected. If possible, disconnect all power cables from the existing

system before you add a device.

•

Before connecting or removing signal cables from the motherboard,

ensure that all power cables are unplugged.

•

Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension cord.

These devices could interrupt the grounding circuit.

•

Make sure that your power supply is set to the correct voltage in your

area. If you are not sure about the voltage of the electrical outlet you

are using, contact your local power company.

•

If the power supply is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact a

qualified service technician or your retailer.

USB 2.0 technology

The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0

specification, dramatically increasing the connection speed from the

12 Mbps bandwidth on USB 1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is

backward compatible with USB 1.1. See pages 1-25 and 1-33 for details.

The C.P.R. feature of the motherboard BIOS allows automatic re-setting to

the BIOS default settings in case the system hangs due to overclocking.

When the system hangs due to overclocking, C.P.R. eliminates the need to

open the system chassis and clear the RTC data. Simply shut down and

reboot the system, and the BIOS automatically restores the CPU default

setting for each parameter.

Onboard LED

The motherboard comes with a standby power LED that lights up to

indicate that the system is ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode.

This is a reminder that you should shut down the system and unplug

the power cable before removing or plugging in any motherboard

component. The illustration below shows the location of the onboard

LED.

1.4 Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard

components or change any motherboard settings.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

component.

• Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or to

a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling

components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity

• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.

• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded

antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.

•

Before you install or remove any component, ensureBefore you install or remove any component, ensure

1.5 Motherboard overview

Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis

to ensure that the motherboard fits into it.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the

motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage

motherboard components.

Do not overtighten the screws! Doing so can damage the motherboard.

Installling the CPUInstallling the CPU

Installling the CPUInstallling the CPU

Installling the CPU

To install a CPU:

1. Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard.

1.6 Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for

the Intel

®

Core™2 Duo/Pentium

®

D/ Pentium

®

4/Celeron

®

processor in the

775-land package.

•

Your boxed Intel

®

Core™2 Duo/Pentium

®

D/Pentium

®

4/Celeron

®

LGA775 processor package should come with installation

instructions for the CPU, fan and heatsink assembly. If the

instructions in this section do not match the CPU documentation,

follow the latter.

• Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the PnP cap is

on the socket and the socket pins are not bent. Contact your

retailer immediately if the PnP cap is missing, or if you see any

damage to the PnP cap/socket pins/motherboard components.

ASUS will shoulder the cost of repair only if the damage is shipment/

transit-related.

• Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process

Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the

motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA775 socket.

•

The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket pins

resulting from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/

loss/incorrect removal of the PnP cap.

Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing

towards you and the load lever is on your left.

3. Lift the load lever in the direction

of the arrow to a 135º angle.

4. Lift the load plate with your

thumb and forefinger to a 100º

angle (A), then push the PnP cap

from the load plate window to

remove (B).

To prevent damage to the socket pins, do not remove the PnP cap

unless you are installing a CPU.

5. Position the CPU over the

socket, making sure that

the gold triangle is on

the bottom-left corner of

the socket. The socket

alignment key should fit

into the CPU notch.

2. Press the load lever with your thumb (A) and move it to the left (B)

until it is released from the retention tab.

• Install the motherboard to the chassis before you install the CPU fan

and heatsink assembly

• When you buy a boxed Intel

pin design and requires no tool to install.

If you purchased a separate CPU heatsink and fan assembly, make sure

that a Thermal Interface Material is properly applied to the CPU heatsink

or CPU before you install the heatsink and fan assembly.

To install the CPU heatsink and fan:

1. Place the heatsink on top of the

installed CPU, making sure that

the four fasteners match the

A DDR2 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR DIMM but has a

You may install 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR2

DIMMs into the DIMM sockets.

• Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum

compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules

from the same vendor. Refer to the DDR2 Qualified Vendors List on

the next page for details.

• Due to chipset resource allocation, the system may detect less than

4 GB system memory when you installed two 2 GB DDR2 memory

modules.

• This motherboard does not support memory modules made up of

128 Mb chips or double sided x16 memory modules.

Installing a DIMM

1. Unlock a DIMM socket by

pressing the retaining clips

outward.

2. Align a DIMM on the socket such

that the notch on the DIMM

matches the break on the

socket.

3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the

socket until the retaining clips

snap back in place and the DIMM

is properly seated.

Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs

or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage

to both the motherboard and the components.

the DIMM.

2. Remove the DIMM from the socket.

Support the DIMM lightly with your fingers when pressing the retaining

• A DDR2 DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one

direction. DO NOT force a DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the

DIMM.

• The DDR2 DIMM sockets do not support DDR DIMMs. Do not install

DDR DIMMs to the DDR2 DIMM sockets.

1.8 Expansion slots

In the future, you may need to install expansion cards. The following

sub-sections describe the slots and the expansion cards that they support.

Installing an expansion cardInstalling an expansion card

Installing an expansion cardInstalling an expansion card

Installing an expansion card

To install an expansion card:

1. Before installing the expansion card, read the documentation that

came with it and make the necessary hardware settings for the card.

2. Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already

installed in a chassis).

3. Remove the bracket opposite the slot that you intend to use. Keep

the screw for later use.

4. Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is

completely seated on the slot.

5. Secure the card to the chassis with the screw you removed earlier.

6. Replace the system cover.

Configuring an expansion card

After installing the expansion card, configure it by adjusting the software

settings.

1. Turn on the system and change the necessary BIOS settings, if any.

See Chapter 2 for information on BIOS setup.

2. Assign an IRQ to the card. Refer to the tables on the next page.

3. Install the software drivers for the expansion card.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before adding or removing

expansion cards. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and

damage motherboard components.

* These IRQs are usually available for ISA or PCI devices.

When using PCI cards on shared slots, ensure that the drivers support

“Share IRQ” or that the cards do not need IRQ assignments. Otherwise,

conflicts will arise between the two PCI groups, making the system

unstable and the card inoperable.
