Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard

components or change any motherboard settings.

1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

component. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the

motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.

2. To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static electricity,

NEVER place your motherboard directly on the carpet or the like. Also

remember to use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safety grounded

object before you handle components.

3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.

4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded

antstatic pad or in the bag that comes with the component.

2.1 CPU Installation2.1 CPU Installation

2.1 CPU Installation

STEP 1: Unlock the socket by lifting the lever up to a 90

o

angle.

STEP 2: Position the CPU directly above the socket such that its marked

corner matches the base of the socket lever.

STEP 3: Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place.

The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU

into the socket to avoid bending of the pins.

STEP 4: When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you

push down the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on

the side tab to indicate that it is locked.

STEP 5: Install CPU fan and heatsink. For proper installation, please kindly

refer to the instruction manuals of your CPU fan and heatsink vendors.

2.2 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)2.2 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

2.2 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

P4V88/P4V88+ motherboard provides four 184-pin DDR (Double Data Rate) DIMM

slots, and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. For dual channel configuration,

you always need to install identical (the same brand, speed, size and chip-type)

DDR DIMM pair in the slots of the same color. In other words, you have to install

identical DDR DIMM pair in Dual Channel A (DDR1 and DDR3; Blue slots; see p.2

No. 6) or identical DDR DIMM pair in Dual Channel B (DDR2 and DDR4; Black slots;

see p.2 No. 10), so that Dual Channel Memory Technology can be activated. This

motherboard also allows you to install four DDR DIMMs for dual channel configuration,

and please install identical DDR DIMMs in all four slots. You may refer to the Dual

Channel Memory Configuration Table below.

Dual Channel Memory Configurations

DDR1 DDR2 DDR3 DDR4

(Blue Slot) (Black Slot) (Blue Slot) (Black Slot)

(1) Populated - Populated -

(2) - Populated - Populated

(3) Populated Populated Populated Populated

1. If you want to install two memory modules, for optimal compatibility

and reliability, it is recommended to install them in the slots of the

same color. In other words, install them either in the set of blue slots

(DDR1 and DDR3), or in the set of black slots (DDR2 and DDR4).

2. If only one memory module or three memory modules are installed

in the DDR DIMM slots on this motherboard, it is unable to activate

the Dual Channel Memory Technology.

3. If a pair of memory modules is NOT installed in the same Dual

Channel, for example, installing a pair of memory modules in DDR1

and DDR2, it is unable to activate the Dual Channel Memory

Technology.

Installing a DIMMInstalling a DIMM

Installing a DIMM

Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or

removing DIMMs or the system components.

STEP 1: Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.

STEP 2: Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the

break on the slot.

The DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent

damage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the

slot at incorrect orientation.

STEP 3: Firmly insert the DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends

fully snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.

2.3 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)2.3 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)

2.3 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)

There are 5 PCI slots and 1 AGP slot on P4V88/P4V88+ motherboard.

PCI slots: PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI

interface.

AGP slot: The AGP slot is used to install a graphics card. The ASRock AGP slot has

a special design of clasp that can securely fasten the inserted graphics

card.

Please do NOT use a 3.3V AGP card on the AGP slot of this

motherboard! It may cause permanent damage! For the voltage

information of your AGP card, please check with the AGP card

vendors.

Installing an expansion cardInstalling an expansion card

Installing an expansion card

STEP 1: Before installing the expansion card, please make sure that the power

supply is switched off or the power cord is unplugged. Please read the

documentation of the expansion card and make necessary hardware

settings for the card before you start the installation.

STEP 2: Remove the bracket facing the slot that you intend to use. Keep the screws

for later use.

STEP 3: Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is

completely seated on the slot.

STEP 4: Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.

2.4 Jumpers Setup

The illustration shows how jumpers are

setup. When the jumper cap is placed on

pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap

is placed on pins, the jumper is “Open”. The

illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1

and pin2 are “Short” when jumper cap is

placed on these 2 pins.

Jumper Setting

PS2_USB_PWR1 Short pin2, pin3 to enable

(see p.2 No. 1) +5VSB (standby) for PS/2

or USB wake up events.

Note: To select +5VSB, it requires 2 Amp and higher standby current provided

by power supply.

JR1(see p.2 No. 26)

JL1(see p.2 No. 25)

Note: If the JL1 and JR1 jumpers are short, both the front panel and the rear panel

audio connectors can work.

Clear CMOS

(CLRCMOS1, 2-pin jumper)

(see p.2 No. 15)

Note: CLRCMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in CMOS includes

system setup information such as system password, date, time, and system

setup parameters. To clear and reset the system parameters to default setup,

please turn off the computer andunplug the power cord, then use a jumper

cap to short the pins on CLRCMOS1 for 3 seconds. Please remember to

remove the jumper cap after clearing the CMOS. If you need to clear the CMOS

when you just finish updating the BIOS, you must boot up the system first, and

then shut it down before you do the clear-CMOS action.
