Mother Board 7VT600-RZ Motherboard 7VT600-RZ Feb. 20 ,2004 Feb. 20, 2004 Preparing Your Computer Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage from static electricity, you should 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 touch the IC chips, leads or connectors, or other components. 4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components whenever the components are separated from the system. 5. Ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off before you plug in or remove the ATX power connector on the motherboard. Installing the motherboard to the chassis If the motherboard has mounting holes, but they don't line up with the holes on the base and there are no slots to attach the spacers, do not become alarmed you can still attach the spacers to the mounting holes. Just cut the bottom portion of the spacers (the spacer may be a little hard to cut off, so be careful of your hands). In this way you can still attach the motherboard to the base without worrying about short circuits. Sometimes you may need to use the plastic springs to isolate the screw from the motherboard PCB surface, because the circuit wire may be near by the hole. Be careful, don't let the screw contact any printed circuit write or parts on the PCB that are near the fixing hole, otherwise it may damage the board or cause board malfunctioning.

Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor's specifications. We don't recommend you to set the system bus frequency over the CPU's specification because these specific bus frequencies are not the standard specifications for CPU, chipset and most of the peripherals. Whether your system can run under these specific bus frequencies properly will depend on your hardware configurations, including CPU, Memory, Cards... etc. 7VT600-RZ Series Motherboard -6- 7VT600-RZ Series Motherboard Layout 20.0 cm English CPU_FAN KB_MS ATX COMA SOCKET A LPT 7VT600-RZ COMB FDD LAN * USB VIA KT600 AUDIO CD_IN F_AUDIO DDR1 DDR2 DDR3 AGP CLR_CMOS BATTERY PCI1 V T6103L* PCI2 JP1 PCI3 CODEC PCI4 V T8 235 SYS_FAN SUR_CEN PCI5 IDE2 -C I T8 705 BIOS GAME AUX_IN SPDI F_IO CI PWR_LED F_U SB1 F_U SB2 IDE1 F_PANEL " * " Support 7VT600-RZ only. -7Introduction 30.5 cm English Block Diagram AMD-K7TM AGP 4X/8X AGPCLK (66MHz) System Bus100/133/166/200MHz DDR RAM HCLK+/- (100/133/166/200MHz) GCLK(66MHz) 66MHz V_Link 5 PCI RJ45* 33 MHz 14.318 MHz BIOS Game Port IT8705 AC97 Link Floppy LPT Port CPUCLK+/- (100/133/166/200MHz) VIA KT600 48 MHz VIA VT6103L* VCLK(66MHz) VIA VT8235 24 MHz 33 MHz AC97 CODEC 6 USB ATA66/100/133 Ports IDE Channe ls 2 COM Ports PCICLK (33MHz) PS/2 KB/Mouse MIC PCICLK (33MHz) USBCLK (48MHz) 14.318 MHz 33 MHz LINE-OUT LINE-IN CLK GEN HCLK+/- (100/133/166/200MHz) CPUCLK+/- (100/133/166/200MHz) AGPCLK (66MHz) V_Link (66MHz) / GCLK (66MHz) " * " Support 7VT600-RZ only. 7VT600-RZ Series Motherboard -8- Hardware Installation Process To set up your computer, you must complete the following steps: Step 1- Set System Jum per (JP1) Step 2- Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU) Step 3- Install memory modules Step 4- Install expansion cards Step 5- Install I/O Peripherals cables English Step 2 Step 3 Step 5 Step 5 Step 1 Step 4 Step 5 Step 1: Set System Jumper (JP1) The system bus frequency can be switched at 100/133/166/200M Hz by adjusting system jumper (JP1).

Please make sure the CPU type is supported by the motherboard. 2. The processor will overheat without the heatsink and/or fan, resulting in permanent irreparable damage. 3. If you do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and CPU cut edge well, it will cause improper installation. Please change the insert orientation. 4. Apply therm al grease between the processor and cooling fan. 5. Never run the processor without the heatsink properly and firmly attached. Permanent dam age will result. 6. Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor's specifications. We don't recommend you to set the system bus frequency over the CPU's specification because these specific bus frequencies are not the standard specifications for CPU, chipset and most of the peripherals. Whether your system can run under these specific bus frequencies properly will depend on your hardware configurations, including CPU, Memory, Cards... etc. Step 2-1: CPU Installation Socket Actuation Lever Figure 1. Pull the rod to the 90-degree directly. Figure 2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for a (golden) cut edge on the CPU upper corner. Insert the CPU into the socket. (Do not force the CPU into the socket.) Then move the socket lever to the locked position while holding pressure on the center of the CPU. Step 2-2: CPU Cooling Fan Installation Figure 1. Apply the thermal tape(or grease) to provide better heat conduction between your CPU and cooling fan. Figure 2. Fasten the cooling fan supporting-base onto the CPU socket on the motherboard. Figure 3. Make sure the CPU fan is plugged to the CPU fan connector, than the install completely. 7VT600-RZ Series Motherboard - 10 - Step 3: Install Memory Modules Before installing the mem ory modules, adhere to the following warning: 1.
