[. . . ] 1 Electronic Emission Notices Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement (305998) This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with instructions contained in this manual, may cause harmful interference to radio and television communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. [. . . ] Align the two small notches in the bottom edge of the DIMM with the keys in the socket. Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the socket. When the DIMM is seated, push down on the top edge of the DIMM until the retaining clips at the ends of the socket snap into place. Make sure the clips are firmly in place. Turn system power off before installing and removing any device, otherwise you'll cause the system damage. Technical Reference Booklet 9 Installing a New Processor An upgrade processor can dramatically increase general system speed and performance. Most microprocessor upgrade kits include the following items: · Microprocessor chip · Installation instructions and technical data Your system may have these features built in, or support them as upgrades. To Install a Processor to ZIF Socket To install the processor, follow these steps: 1. If the system microprocessor is already on the motherboard socket, you need to remove it from the motherboard socket. The socket is a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket which has a metal arm at one side. Carefully grasp this arm, move it horizontally away from the socket and lift it up. Eventually you will be able to lift the chip straight up out of the socket. Be careful not to bend any of the pins when removing the microprocessor chip from its socket. The microprocessor chip can be permanently damaged. 2. Carefully align the processor with the correct orientation to the socket on the motherboard. Carefully insert the processor into the socket, and move the metal arm downward to replace it in its original position. Connect the Processor Fan Connector There is a fan attached the processor to prevent the overheating. Connect the processor fan cable to the fan connector that located on the motherboard near the processor and ensure the fan can operate. Otherwise the CPU can overheat and cause damage to both CPU and motherboard. Hardware Setup 10 BIOS SETUP This chapter discusses Award's Setup Program built into the ROM BIOS. The Setup Program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This special information is then stored in battery-backed RAM, which retains the setup information when the power is turned off. Starting Setup The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you turn on the computer. The BIOS reads the system information contained in the CMOS and begins the process of checking out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating system. While the BIOS is in control, the Setup Program can be activated: 1. By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or 2. Standard CMOS Features Advanced BIOS Features Advanced Chipset Features Integrated Peripherals Power Management Setup PnP/PCI Configurations PC Health Status This setup page includes all the items of AwardTM special standard features. [. . . ] Allow the PC system to boot from the DOS diskette. At the DOS prompt, key in AWDFLASH and hit <ENTER> 4. The question: "Do you want to save BIOS (Y/N)" is displayed. Key in "N" if there is no need to save the existing BIOS content. . Key in "Y" if a backup copy of the existing BIOS is needed. [. . . ]
