3. If you are installing a hard disk drive, perform the following steps:
a. Inspect the 40-wire IDE cable that you are providing. The red wire along
one edge of the ribbon cable indicates wire 1.
b. Connect one end of the 40-wire IDE cable to the hard drive just as you
would for a standard PC installation. The connectors orientation should be
indicated in the drive documentation, or marked near the connector on the
drive. Usually wire 1 is oriented towards the drive’s power cable connector.
c. Connect the other end of the 40-wire IDE cable to the first 40-pin connector
(connector J5 at location L4) on the PCI CDP (with wire 1 oriented towards
the edge of the board, near the power supply connector).
d. Find one of the 4-wire power connectors from the PC power supply and
attach it to the 4-pin connector on the hard drive just as you would for a
standard PC installation.
4. Make sure the CPU heat sink is securely attached to the microprocessor and
connect the heat sink fan power wires to a spare disk drive power connector.
Fan power supply connectors are not all the same. Check the voltage printed
on the fan and connect its wires to the correct voltage pins on the appropriate
power supply connector.
5. Insert a PCI- or ISA-bus VGA-compatible video card into an appropriate slot
on the PCI CDP. The PCI slots are labeled SLT1 and SLT2. The ISA slots are
labeled SL1 and SL2.
6. Connect the monitor cable from the monitor to the D-connector on the video
card just as you would for a standard PC.
7. Connect the AT keyboard to the keyboard connector (connector J1 at location O1).
8. Connect the PS/2 mouse (if used) to the mouse connector (connector J11 at
location M1).
9. Connect the connectors (usually marked P8 and P9) from the standard PC power
supply into the board’s power connectors J2 (at location Q2) and J3 (at location
N2). P8 connects to J2 (the six pins closest to the corner of the board); P9
connects to the other six pins. Make sure the black ground wires from P8 and
P9 meet in the middle of the boards J2 and J3 connectors.
CAUTION: Failure to verify the power supply connections can
result in total destruction of the PCI CDP.
