A9 III 1: Introduction Chapter 1 Introduction This mainboard has a Socket-370 processor socket for an Intel PPGA/FCPGA Celeron or FCPGA Pentium III processor. You can install any one of these processors on the mainboard. The mainboard supports front-side bus speeds of 66MHz, 100MHz or 133MHz. This mainboard uses the VIA PM133 chipset which provides CPU Plug & Play through firmware, a 4X AGP slot for highly graphics display, CPU Plug & Play through firmware, and integrates a Savage4 2D/3D/Video Accelerator. The mainboard has a built-in AC97 Codec, provides an AMR (Audio Modem Riser) slot to support Audio and Modem application. In addition, the mainboard has an extended set of ATX I/O Ports including PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, two USB ports, a parallel port, a VGA port, a serial port, a game port and audio ports. This mainboard has all the features you need to develop a powerful multimedia workstation. The board is ATX size and has power connectors for an ATX power supply. 1 MS7167 Mainboard User's Manual Key Features The key features of this mainboard include: Socket-370 Processor Support Supports PPGA/FCPGA Celeron CPUs which provide Pentium II performance with integrated L1 and L2 cache Supports FCPGA Pentium III CPUs Supports 66MHz, 100MHz or 133MHz Front-Side Bus All processors are automatically configured using firmware and a synchronous Host/DRAM Clock Scheme.

The mainboard This User's Guide 1 UDMA/66 IDE cable 1 Floppy disk drive cable Support software on CD-ROM disk Static Electricity Precautions Components on this mainboard can be damaged by static electricity. Take the following precautions when unpacking the mainboard and installing it in a system. 1. Keep the mainboard and other components in their original static-proof packaging until you are ready to install them. 2. During installation, wear a grounded wrist strap if possible. If you don't have a wrist strap, discharge static electricity by touching the bare metal of the system chassis. 3. Handle the mainboard carefully by the edges. Avoid touching the components unless it is absolutely necessary. During installation put the mainboard on top of the static-protection packaging it came in with the component side facing up. Pre-Installation Inspection 1. Inspect the mainboard for damage to the components and connectors on the board. 2. If you suspect that the mainboard has been damaged, do not connect power to the system. Contact your mainboard vendor and report the damage. 4 2: Mainboard Installation Chapter 2 Mainboard Installation To install this mainboard in a system, follow the procedures in this chapter: ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Identify the mainboard components Install a CPU Install one or more system memory modules Verify that any jumpers or switches are set correctly Install the mainboard in a system chassis (case) Connect any extension brackets or cables to the mainboard connector headers Install any other devices and make the appropriate connections to the mainboard connector headers. Note: 1. Before installing this mainboard, make sure jumper J8 is set to Normal setting. See this chapter for information on locating J8 and the setting options. 2. Never connect power to the system during installation. Doing so may damage the mainboard. 5 MS7167 Mainboard User's Manual Mainboard Components Use the diagram below to identify the major components on the mainboard. Note: Any jumpers on your mainboard that do not appear in this illustration are for testing only. I/O Ports The illustration below shows a side view of the built-in I/O ports on the mainboard. PS/2 Mouse Parallel Port VGA Port Game/MIDI Port PS/2 Keyboard USB Ports Line-Out Jack Serial Port COM1/3 Microphone Jack Line-In Jack 6 2: Mainboard Installation Install A CPU This mainboard has a Socket-370 which supports PPGA/FCPGA Celeron and FCPGA Pentium III processors. Do not try to install a Socket 7 processor in the Socket-370. A Socket 7 processor such as the Pentium-MMX, or the AMD K5/K6 does not fit in the Socket 370. The following list notes the processors that are currently supported by this mainboard. FCPGA Pentium III: 500~933MHz, FSB: 100MHz, 133MHz PPGA/FCPGA Celeron: 300~600MHz, FSB: 66 MHz Installing a Socket-370 Processor A processor installs into the ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) Socket-370 on the mainboard. 1. Locate the Socket-370 and FAN1. Pull the locking lever out slightly from the socket and raise it to the upright position. FAN1 Pin-1 Corner Socket-370 2. On the processor, identify the Pin-1 corner by its beveled edge. 3. On the Socket-370, identify the Pin-1 corner. The Pin-1 corner is at the top of the locking lever when it is locked. 4. Match the Pin-1 corners and insert the processor into the socket. No force is required and the processor should drop into place freely. 5. Swing the locking lever down and hook it under the catch on the side of the socket. This secures the CPU in the socket. 6. All processors should be installed with a combination heatsink/cooling fan, connect the cable from the fan to the CPU fan power connector FAN1. 7 MS7167 Mainboard User's Manual Install Memory The mainboard has three DIMM sockets for system memory modules.
