Chapter 2 Installation 2Core1066-2.13G is a Micro ATX form factor (9.6" x 9.0", 24.4 x 22.9 cm) motherboard. Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits into it. Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure to do so may cause physical injuries to you and damages to motherboard components. 2.1 Screw Holes Place screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis.
2.3 CPU Installation This motherboard is bundled with one selected Dual Core CPU operating at FSB1066 / 2.13GHz. Please do not remove ASRock CPU stickers on both sides of CPU socket on this motherboard. If the stickers are damaged, removed or bear the word “VOID”, ASRock is not responsible for the after service of this CPU. In the future, you may adopt other compatible Intel 775-LAND CPU on this motherboard. For the installation of Intel 775LAND CPU, please follow the steps below.
Step 2-2. Orient the CPU with IHS (Integrated Heat Sink) up. Locate Pin1 and the two orientation key notches. Pin1 orientation key notch orientation key notch Pin1 alignment key alignment key 775-Pin Socket 775-LAND CPU For proper inserting, please ensure to match the two orientation key notches of the CPU with the two alignment keys of the socket. Step 2-3. Carefully place the CPU into the socket by using a purely vertical motion. Step 2-4.
2.4 Installation of CPU Fan and Heatsink This motherboard is equipped with 775-Pin socket that supports Intel 775-LAND CPU. Please adopt the type of heatsink and cooling fan compliant with Intel 775-LAND CPU to dissipate heat. Before you installed the heatsink, you need to spray thermal interface material between the CPU and the heatsink to improve heat dissipation. Ensure that the CPU and the heatsink are securely fastened and in good contact with each other.
2.5 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM) 2Core1066-2.13G motherboard provides two 240-pin DDRII (Double Data Rate) DIMM slots, and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. For dual channel configuration, you always need to install two identical (the same brand, speed, size and chip-type) memory modules in the DDRII DIMM slots to activate Dual Channel Memory Technology. Otherwise, it will operate at single channel mode. 1. It is not allowed to install a DDR memory module into DDRII slot; 2.
2.6 Expansion Slots (PCI, HDMR and PCI Express Slots) There are 2 PCI slots, 1 HDMR slot and 2 PCI Express slots on this motherboard. PCI slots: PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI interface. HDMR slot: HDMR slot is used to insert a HDMR card with v.92 Modem functionality. The HDMR slot is shared with PCI2 slot. PCIE Slots: PCIE1 (PCIE x16 slot) is used for PCI Express cards with x16 lane width graphics cards.
2.7 Jumpers Setup The illustration shows how jumpers are setup. When the jumper cap is placed on pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap is placed on pins, the jumper is “Open”. The illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1 and pin2 are “Short” when jumper cap is placed on these 2 pins. Jumper Setting PS2_USB_PWR1 1_2 2_3 Description Short pin2, pin3 to enable (see p.10 No. 1) +5VSB (standby) for PS/2 +5V +5VSB or USB wake up events.
