Hardware Setup

This chapter tells you how to install the CPU, memory modules, and expansion cards, as well as how to
setup the jumpers on the mainboard. It also provides the instructions on connecting the peripheral
devices, such as the mouse, keyboard, etc. While doing the installation, be careful in holding the
components and follow the installation procedures.
Central Processing Unit: CPU
The mainboard supports AMD Athlon, Athlon XP and Duron processors in the 462 pin package. The
mainboard uses a CPU socket called Socket A for easy CPU installation. When you are installing the
CPU, make sure the CPU has a heat sink and a cooling fan attached on the top to prevent overheating.
If you do not find the heat sink and cooling fan, contact your dealer to purchase and install them before
turning on the computer. (For the latest information about CPU, please visit
