Observing a few basic precautions can help you safeguard against damage that could result in expensive repairs. Follow the measures below to protect your equipment from static discharge: Keep the motherboard and other system components in their antistatic packaging until you are ready to install them. Touch a grounded surface before you remove any system component from its protective antistatic packaging. A grounded surface within easy reach is the expansion slot covers at the rear of the system case. or any other unpainted portion of the system chassis. During configuration and installation, touch a ground surface frequently to discharge any static electric charge that may build up in your body. Another option is to wear a grounding wrist strap. When handling a motherboard or an adapter card, avoid touching its components. Handle the motherboard and adapter cards either by the edges or by the mounting bracket that attaches to the slot opening in the case. JP12 JP10 JP8 OPEN JP1 1-5 1-6 3VAAV User's Manual 3VAAV User's Manual The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows: Installation Procedures The mainboard has some user-adjustable jumpers on the board that allow you to configure the system for your requirements to the large extent. This chapter contains information on each jumper setting on your mainboard. To set up your computer, you must complete the following steps: 1. Setting system jumpers. 2. Install RAM modules. 3. Install CPU & FAN. 4. Connect ribbon cables, cabinet wires, and power supply. 5. Set up BIOS. 6. Set up system drivers and utility. A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers. Note: When you open the jumper, attach the plastic jumper cap to one of the pins so you won't lose it. Warning: Always completely disconnect the power cord from your board whenever you are working on it. Do not make connections while the power is on because sensitive electronic components can be damaged by the sudden rush of power. Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the board. Modem electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipative surface or in a static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis. CPU External Frequency Settings:(JP8) The Motherboard supports Intel Socket 370 CPUs with 66MHz or 100MHz or 133MHz external frequency. Setting the jumper according to the external frequency of the CPU you are going to install on the motherboard. states BIOS auto-detect CPU Frequency(66/100MHZ) 1 PII and Celeron and Cyrix MIII CPU setting 2-1 Setting System Jumpers You may configure your motherboard to match the needs of your applications by setting different jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electrical switch. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To "close" a jumper, you connect the pins with the clip. To "open" a jumper, you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2, 3. In this case you would connect either pin 1 and 2 or 2 and 3.
