Socket 370 Socket 370 CPU White Dot Lever Blank Lock CPU ZIF Socket 370 ® ® 2-7-3 Intel Pentium III Processor (256K) in the FC-PGA form factor: Mechanical Features The FC-PGA package has the processor’s silicon die directly mounted to a pinned interposer substrate. The pin grid array is partially populated and there may be surface mount components in the unpopulated central area of the pin field.
FC-PGA with a PPGA heatsink CPU Insertion Step 1 Open the socket by raising the actuation lever. Step 2 Insert the processor. Ensure proper pin 1 orientation by aligning the FC-PGA corner marking with the socket corner closest to the actuation arm tip. The pin field is keyed to prevent mis-oriented insertion. Don’t force processor into socket. If it does not go in easily, check for mis-orientation and debris. Make sure the processor is fully inserted into the socket on all sides.
2-8 Expansion Cards You must read the documentation come with expansion card for any hardware or software settings that may be required to setup your specific card. Installation Procedure: 1. Read the documentation from your expansion card. 2. Set any necessary jumpers on your expansion card. 3. Remove your computer’s cover. 4. Remove the bracket on the slot you intend to use. 5. Carefully align the card’s connectors and press firmly. 6. Secure the card on the slot with the screw you remove in step 4. 7.
1. Power connector: AT Power Connector (12-pin block): PW1 This connector connects to a standard AT power supply. To connect the leads from the power supply, ensure first that the power supply is not plugged. Most power supplies provide two plugs (P8 and P9), each containing six wires, two of which are black. Orient the connectors so that the black wires are located in the middle. Using a slight angle, align the plastic guide pins on the lead to their receptacles on the connector.
PIN 1 1: 2: 3: 4: 5: DATA NC GND VCC CLK PS/2 Mouse Module Connector 5. Parallel Printer Connector (26-pin Block): LPT1 Connection for the enclosed parallel port ribbon cable with mounting bracket. Connect the ribbon cable to this connection and mount the bracket to the case on an open slot. It will then be available for a parallel printer cable. NOTE: Serial printers must be connected to the serial port. You can enable the parallel port and choose the IRQ through BIOS Setup.
This connector supports the provided IDE hard disk ribbon cable. After connecting the single plug end to motherboard, connect the two plugs at other end to your hard disk(s). If you install two hard disks, you must configure the second drive to Slave mode by setting its jumpers accordingly. Please refer to the documentation of your hard disk for the jumper settings.

Chapter 3 AWARD BIOS SETUP Award's ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program which allows user modify the basic system configuration and hardware parameters. The modified data will be stored in a batterybacked CMOS RAM so data will be retained even when the power is turned off. In general, the information saved in the CMOS RAM stay unchanged unless here is configuration change in the system, such as hard drive replacement or new equipment is installed.

When all the procedures have been completed, there will be an infrared signal coming from the SPDIF/OUT of the optical fiber of the sound card. Please note that signal beam may cause severe damage to the eyes. For your safety, please point the output end to a piece of white paper to check if thebeam is in function. Please connect the output signal to the MD input, then play the music via the MP3 player.
Please note that in playback, if there is no gap longer than three seconds between each track, the MD can not recognize the tracks and will record all of them into one. It is recommended that you set the gap time to 3~5 seconds to meet all type of MD requirements.
24-bit audio can only be applied to SPDIF IN/OUT mode; it does not apply to other modes such as the four channels or the analog. No sound will be heard while in playback, yet it can be recorded. The un-selected area will be gray out.
