MSI Reminds You...
1. Confirm if your CPU cooler is firmly installed before turning on your system.
2. Check the information in PC Health Status of H/W Monitor in BIOS for the CPU
temperature.
3. Do not touch the CPU socket pins to avoid damage.
4. Whenever CPU is not installed, always protect your CPU socket pin with the plastic cap
covered to avoid damage.
5. Please note that the mating / unmating durability of the CPU is 20 cycles. Therefore we
suggest you do not frequently plug and unplug the CPU.
Memory
The mainboard provides 2 slots for 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMM (Double In-Line Memory Module)
modules and supports the memory size up to 2GB. Install at least one DIMM module on the
slots. Each DIMM slot supports up to a maximum size of 1GB. You can install either single- or
double-sided modules to meet your own needs.
Please refer to http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_trp_list.php
for compatible DDR modules.
Installing DDR Modules
1. The DDR DIMM has only one notch on the center of module. The module will only fit in the
right orientation.
2. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the
golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the socket.
