[. . . ] NOTE: SIMM numbers are not in sequence, (2, 4, 6, 8, 1, 3, 5, 7 from left to right. ) IMPORTANT: Each bank must have the same size memory installed in pairs. Do not use memory modules with more than 24 chips per module. Modules with more than 24 chips exceed the design specifications of the memory subsystem and will be unstable. ASUS P/I-P65UP5 User's Manual III. INSTALLATION DRAM Memory Installation Procedures IMPORTANT: Install memory modules in symmetric pairs. The SIMM memory modules will only fit in one orientation as shown because of a "Plastic Safety Tab" on one end of the SIMM slots which requires the "Notched End" of the SIMM memory modules. 2468 1357 Notched End B0 B1 B2 B3 B0 B1 B2 B3 B=Bank 72-Pin SIMM Sockets 2. Press the memory module firmly into place starting from a 45 degree angle making sure that all the contacts are aligned with the slot. With your finger tips, rock the memory module into a vertical position so that it clicks into place. Support Clip 72 Pin DRAM in SIMM Socket Safety Tab (This Side Only) Mounting Hole 4. The plastic guides should go through the two mounting holes on the sides and the clips should snap on the other side. To release the memory module, squeeze both clips outward and rock the module out of the clips. ASUS P/I-P65UP5 User's Manual 17 III. Central Processing Unit The P/I-P65UP5 baseboard provides a CPU card slot that can be used with any ASUS CPU cards, which are available separately. You must purchase any one of these CPU cards (see next page for a brief description) to complete the system's board. System Case The system case must be either a mid- to full-size tower or desktop (for C-P6ND and C-P55T2D CPU cards) or server (C-PKND) case to give a clearance as follows: Expansion Cards PS/2 Mouse PCI 1 Long Expansion Card PCI 2 Short Expansion Card PCI 3 Short Expansion Card PCI 4 Long Expansion Card ISA 1/PCI 5/MediaBus Long Card ISA 2 Long Expansion Card CPU + Fan ISA 3 Long Expansion Card CPU Card PS/2 Keyboard 9. 00" (22. 5 cm) Baseboard System Cabinet Clearance Area Requirement for the C-P6ND/C-P55T2D CPU Cards Expansion Cards PS/2 Mouse PCI 2 Short Expansion Card PCI 3 Short Expansion Card ISA 1/PCI 5/MediaBus Long Card PCI 1 Long Expansion Card PCI 4 Long Expansion Card ISA 2 Long Expansion Card ISA 3 Long Expansion Card Pentium II Processor Heatsink PS/2 Keyboard C-PKND CPU Card 9. 25" (23. 5 cm) Baseboard System Cabinet Clearance Area Requirement for the C-PKND CPU Card The P/I-P65UP5 baseboard is a standard 3/4 baby AT size 11 x 8. 75" and will fit almost all system cases, but the CPU card will require that the floppy disk and CDROM drives not be hanging over the baseboard. Remove your computer system's cover. Remove the bracket on the slot you intend to use. Keep the bracket for possible future use. Carefully align the card's connectors and press firmly. Secure the card on the slot with the screw you removed in step 4. Replace the computer system's cover. Set up the BIOS if necessary (such as IRQ xx Used By ISA: Yes in PNP AND PCI SETUP) Install the necessary software drivers for your expansion card. INSTALLATION (Expansion Cards) 20 Assigning IRQs for Expansion Cards IMPORTANT: PCI Slots 4 & 5 share the same IRQ. If using PCI cards on both slots 4 & 5, make sure that the drivers support "Share IRQ" or that one card does not need an IRQ assignment. Conflicts will arise on PCI Slots 4 & 5 that will make the system unstable. Some expansion cards need to use an IRQ to operate. [. . . ] Other formations will cause your SCSI devices to not mount properly. You must use the end of the ribbon cable when using the internal connector(s) to keep a linear path. Additional Note: The Symbios Logic SCSI Configuration Utility is a powerful tool. If, while using it, you somehow disable all your controllers or cannot enter the configuration utility, pressing "Ctrl-A" after memory count during reboot allows you to recover and reconfigure. Terminator Settings for the ASUS PCI-SC200 The ASUS PCI-SC200, on the other hand, has "active" termination that you must set using jumper JP5. [. . . ]
