7 Quick StepsPlease follow these steps in order to assure that your series of Mainboard installation is successful. Please refer to the back chapters for further information regarding boot-up and configurations. An anti-static wrist band is recommended when handling electronic components, make sure your work area is static free before you begin this section.Page 11 Mainboard User's ManualThe Mainboard provides a 478-pin socket (S in Mainboard Diagram), namely socket mPGA478B, for an easy CPU installa-tion. Simply disengage the lever from the locking latch, lift it to its vertical position. Match the triangle markings on both the CPU and the mPGA478B socket. Carefully drop the CPU into the socket such that all the CPU pins entered the holes in the socket. Apply slight pressure if necessary. Make sure the CPU is level with the surface of the socket. Maintain a slight pressure on the CPU and rotate the lever back to its horizontal (or locking) position, and snap the lever back to the locking latch.The CPU should have a heat sink attached to prevent from overheating. User should purchase those with fans attached. The recommended heat sinks fan for the 478-pin processors are those with three-pin connector (with three wire) that can be connected to the fan header on the Mainboard. It provides the +12 Volts D.C. power that is necessary for CPU cooling fan, and a wire for fan speed detection.Installing the CPU 7 Quick Steps
CAUTION! · The 478-pin Pentium 4® CPU and the mPGA478B socket are delicate parts, and could damage easily. Please handle with care.· Do not force the lever of the mPGA478B socket to rotate. Doing so may cause damage to the CPU and/or the mPGA478B socket. Mainboard User's ManualPage 12

Mainboard User's ManualPage 14ATX Power Supply Connector (20-pin ATXPWR)The 20-pin connector (B, labelled as ATX1 in Mainboard Diagram) incorporates standard +/-5V and +/-12V, and a 5V power standby . With a power supply that supports remote power on/off, the mainboard can turn off the system power through software control, such as the shutdown in Windows 98 Start Menu. The BIOS system will turn the system power off when it receives the proper APM command from the OS. APM must be enabled in the BIOS and OS systems in order for the soft-off feature to work properly.The Pentium 4 ATX Power Supply (B, labelled as ATX2 in Mainboard Diagram) also comes with a 4-pin connector which provides two additional 12V power for the mainboard. These two additional 12V power provide a more stable power source for the CPU power circuitry.ATX Power ConnectorAttaching ATX Power Supply.
