Pre-installation PrecautionsPre-installation Precautions

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 car-

pet 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 InstallationCPU Installation

CPU Installation

Step 1. Unlock the socket by lifting the lever up to a 90° 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)

939Dual-SATA2 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

DDR2; Blue slots; see p.2 No.7) or identical DDR DIMM pair in Dual Channel B

(DDR3 and DDR4; Black slots; see p.2 No.8), 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) (Blue Slot) (Black Slot) (Black Slot)

(1) Populated Populated - -

(2) - - Populated Populated

(3)* Populated Populated Populated Populated

* For the configuration (3), please install identical DDR DIMMs in all four slots.

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 DDR2), or in the set of black slots (DDR3 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 DDR3, it is unable to activate the Dual Channel Memory Tech-

nology .

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.

Future CPU Port (Yellow-Colored Port):

Future CPU Port allows you to upgrade your AMD 939-Pin CPU to AMD 940-Pin CPU by

installing an add-on ASRock M2CPU Board into this future CPU Port on 939Dual-

SATA2 motherboard. Before you upgrade the 939-Pin CPU to the 940-Pin (M2) CPU,

it is necessary to adjust the jumper settings for those required jumpers on 939Dual-

SATA2 motherboard. Please refer to the table below for the correct jumper settings.

NOTE

When adjusting the jumper settings, you may use the tool, Jumper Cap Remover, to help you

removing the jumper caps more easily. This Jumper Cap Remover is bundled in your motherboard

package, and please follow the “Jumper Cap Remover Instruction” to use it properly.

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

interface.

PCIE Slots: PCIE1 (PCIE x 16 slot) is used for PCI Express cards with x16 lane

width graphics cards.

PCIE2 (PCIE x 1 slot) is used for PCI Express cards, such as

Gigabit LAN card, SATA2 card, etc.

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 infor-

mation of your AGP card, please check with the AGP card vendors.

This motherboard adopts JMicron JMB360 chipset that supports Serial ATAII

(SATAII) hard disk. It also adopts ULi M1567 south bridge chipset that supports

Serial ATA (SATA) hard disks, and supports RAID functions. You may install SATA

hard disks on this motherboard for internal storage devices. This section will

guide you to install the SATA hard disks.

STEP 1: Install the SATA hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis.

STEP 2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA hard disk.

STEP 3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard’s SATA

connector.

STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA hard disk.

1. If you plan to use RAID 0, RAID 1, or JBOD functions on SATA, SATA

HDDs must be operated in “RAID” mode.

2. “RAID” and “non-RAID” mode are options under “SATA Operation Mode” in

BIOS setup. Please refer to page 30 of “User Manual” in the Support CD for

details. They need different drivers during actual operation.
