WARNING

Please realize that there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including adjusting

the setting in the BIOS, applying Untied Overclocking Technology, or using the third-

party overclocking tools. Overclocking may affect your system stability, or even

cause damage to the components and devices of your system. It should be done at

your own risk and expense. We are not responsible for possible damage caused by

overclocking.

Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install mother-

board 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.

5. When placing screws into the screw holes to secure the

motherboard to the chassis, please do not over-tighten the

screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

CPU Installation

For the installation of Intel 775-LAND CPU,

please follow the steps below.

Before you insert the 775-LAND CPU into the socket, please check if

the CPU surface is unclean or if there is any bent pin on the socket.

Do not force to insert the CPU into the socket if above situation is

found. Otherwise, the CPU will be seriously damaged.

Step 1. Open the socket:

Step 1-1. Disengaging the lever by depressing

down and out on the hook to clear

retention tab.

Step 1-2. Rotate the load lever to fully open po-

sition at approximately 135 degrees.

Step 1-3. Rotate the load plate to fully open po-

sition at approximately 100 degrees.

Step 2. Insert the 775-LAND CPU:

Step 2-1. Hold the CPU by the edges where are

marked with black lines.

Step 2-2. Orient the CPU with IHS (Integrated

Heat Sink) up. Locate Pin1 and the two

orientation key notches.

For proper inserting, please ensure to match the two orientation key

notches of the CPU with the two alignment keys of the socket.

Step 2-3. Carefully place the CPU into the socket

by using a purely vertical motion.

Step 2-4. Verify that the CPU is within the socket

and properly mated to the orient keys.

Step 3. Remove PnP Cap (Pick and Place Cap):

Use your left hand index finger and thumb to

support the load plate edge, engage PnP cap

with right hand thumb and peel the cap from the

socket while pressing on center of PnP cap to

assist in removal.

Installation of CPU Fan and HeatsinkInstallation of CPU Fan and Heatsink

Installation of CPU Fan and Heatsink

For proper installation, please kindly refer to the instruction manuals of your CPU fan

and heatsink.

Below is an example to illustrate the installation of the heatsink for 775-LAND CPU.

Step 1. Apply thermal interface material onto center

of IHS on the socket surface.

Step 2. Place the heatsink onto the socket. Ensure

fan cables are oriented on side closest to the

CPU fan connector on the motherboard

(CPU_FAN1, see page 2, No. 6).

Step 3. Align fasteners with the motherboard

throughholes.

Step 4. Rotate the fastener clockwise, then press

down on fastener caps with thumb to install

and lock. Repeat with remaining fasteners.

If you press down the fasteners without rotating them clockwise,

the heatsink cannot be secured on the motherboard.

Step 5. Connect fan header with the CPU fan

connector on the motherboard.

Step 6. Secure excess cable with tie-wrap to ensure

cable does not interfere with fan operation or

contact other components.

2.3 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)2.3 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

2.3 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

This motherboard provides two 240-pin DDRII (Double Data Rate) DIMM slots, and

supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. For dual channel configuration, you

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

memory modules in the DDRII DIMM slots to activate Dual Channel Memory Technology.

Otherwise, it will operate at single channel mode.

1. It is not allowed to install a DDR memory module into DDRII slot;

otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged.

2. If you install only one memory module or two non-identical memory

modules, 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.

2.7 HDMI_SPDIF Header Connection Guide

HDMI (High-Definition Multi-media Interface) is an all-digital audio/video specification,

which provides an interface between any compatible digital audio/video source,

such as a set-top box, DVD player, A/V receiver and a compatible digital audio or

video monitor, such as a digital television (DTV). A complete HDMI system requires a

HDMI VGA card and a HDMI ready motherboard with a HDMI_SPDIF header. This

motherboard is equipped with a HDMI_SPDIF header, which provides SPDIF audio

output to HDMI VGA card, allows the system to connect HDMI Digital TV/projector/

LCD devices. To use HDMI function on this motherboard, please carefully follow the

below steps.

•

Make sure to correctly connect the HDMI_SPDIF cable to the motherboard and the

HDMI VGA card according to the same pin definition. For the pin definition of

HDMI_SPDIF header and HDMI_SPDIF cable connectors, please refer to page 18. For

the pin definition of HDMI_SPDIF connectors on HDMI VGA card, please refer to the

user manual of HDMI VGA card vendor. Incorrect connection may cause permanent

damage to this motherboard and the HDMI VGA card.
