Step 1 Unpack the Motherboard Step Action 1 Inspect the cardboard carton for obvious damage. If damaged, call 770-246-8645. Leave the motherboard in its original packing. 2 Perform all unpacking and installation procedures on a ground-connected anti-static mat. Wear an anti-static wristband grounded at the same point as the anti-static mat. Or use a sheet of conductive aluminum foil grounded through a 1 megohm resistor instead of the anti-static mat. Similarly, a strip of conductive aluminum foi

Step 5 Connect CPU Fans J1 and J7 (shown below) are 3-pin bergs that connect the fan on the CPU heat sink to the motherboard power. J1 is the CPU fan connector for the CPU in CPU Slot1. J7 is the CPU fan connector for the CPU in CPU Slot2. Ground Pin 1 J1, J7, and +12V J23 pinout Fan Sense All Pentium II CPUs are shipped with a heat sink and a CPU fan. The connector from the CPU fan usually has three leads (has red, yellow, and black leads). Connect the Red lead to Pin 3 (+12V). Make sure that

Step 7 Install Memory System Memory There are eight 32-bit SIMM (Single Inline Memory Module) sockets. System memory must be populated one bank at a time. Each bank has two sockets. Each bank must be populated with the same type of SIMM. If a 4 MB SIMM is installed in the first socket in Bank0, then the same type of 4 MB SIMM must be installed in the second Bank0 SIMM socket. The minimum amount of system memory supported by the MegaRUM PCI is 8 MB. Each socket can hold one SIMM. You can use: •
