 2. Central Processing Unit (CPU)
2.1 Overview
The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for the
Intel® Mainstream/Value FMB processor in the 775-land package.

2.2 Installing the CPU

To install a CPU:

1. Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard.

IPIBL-LA

IPIBL-LA(Berkeley-GL8E)
CPU Socket 775

Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing towards you
and the load lever is on your left.

2. Press the load lever with your thumb (A), then move it to the left (B) until it is
released from the retention tab.

5. Position the CPU over the

socket, making sure that
the gold triangle is on the
bottom‑left corner of the
socket then fit the socket
alignment key into the
CPU notch

 6. Close the load plate (A), then A
push the load lever (B) until it
snaps into the retention tab.
7. If installing a dual-core CPU, B
connect the chassis fan cable
to the CHA_FAN1 connector to
ensure system stability.

Notes on Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology

• This motherboard supports Intel® Mainstream/Value FMB processor in the

775-land package with Hyper-Threading Technology.
• Hyper-Threading Technology is supported under Windows® XP/2003 Server/
Vista and Linux 2.4.x (kernel) and later versions only. Under Linux, use the
Hyper-Threading compiler to compile the code. If you are using any other
operating systems, disable the Hyper-Threading Techonology item in the
BIOS to ensure system stability and performance.
• Installing Windows® XP Service Pack 1 or later version is recommended.
• Make sure to enable the Hyper-Threading Technology item in BIOS before
installing a supported operating system.
• For more information on Hyper-Threading Technology, visit www.intel.com/
info/hyperthreading.

To use the Hyper-Threading Technology on this motherboard:

1. Install an Intel® Intel® Mainstream/Value FMB processor that supports Hyper-

Threading Technology.
2. Power up the system and enter the BIOS Setup. Under the Advanced Menu,
make sure that the item Hyper‑Threading Technology is set to [Enabled].
The item appears only if you installed a CPU that supports Hyper-Threading
Techonology.
3. Reboot the computer.

 3. System memory
The motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) Dual Inline Memory
Module (DIMM) sockets.
A DDR2 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR DIMM but has a
240-pin footprint compared to the 184-pin DDR DIMM. DDR2 DIMMs are notched
differently to prevent installation on a DDR DIMM socket.
The following figure illustrates the location of the DDR2 DIMM sockets.

240-pin DDR2 DIMM sockets

3.1 Memory configurations

You can install 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs into the DIMM
sockets using the memory configurations in this section.

• Installing DDR2 DIMMs other than the recommended configurations

may cause memory sizing error or system boot failure. Use any of the
recommended configurations on the next page.
• Install only identical (the same type and size) DDR2 DIMM pairs using the
recommended configurations.
• Make sure that the memory frequency matches the CPU FSB (Front Side
Bus). Refer to the Memory frequency/CPU FSB synchronization table on
the next page.
• This motherboard does not support double-sided 16-bit DDR DIMMs.
• Do not create a three-DIMM configuration in dual-channel mode. The third
DIMM is ignored in the dual-channel operation.

 3.2 Installing a DDR2 DIMM
Unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other
system components. Failure to do so can cause severe damage to both the
motherboard and the components.

To install a DIMM: 2
DDR2 DIMM notch
1. Unlock a DIMM socket by 3
pressing the retaining clips
outward.
2. Align a DIMM on the socket 1
such that the notch on the DIMM
matches the break on the socket. 1

3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the

socket until the retaining clips
snap back in place and the DIMM
is properly seated.

Unlocked retaining clip

• A DDR2 DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one direction. Do
not force a DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the DIMM.
• The DDR2 DIMM sockets do not support DDR DIMMs. Do not install DDR
DIMMs to the DDR2 DIMM sockets.

3.3 Removing a DDR2 DIMM

Follow these steps to remove a DIMM.
2
1. Simultaneously press the retaining
clips outward to unlock the DIMM.

Support the DIMM lightly with

your fingers when pressing the 1
retaining clips. The DIMM might
get damaged when it flips out 1 DDR2 DIMM notch
with extra force.

2. Remove the DIMM from the socket.

 4. Expansion slots
In the future, you may need to install expansion cards. The following sub‑sections
describe the slots and the expansion cards that they support.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before adding or removing expansion
cards. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and damage motherboard
components.

4.1 Installing an expansion card

To install an expansion card:

1. Before installing the expansion card, read the documentation that came with
it and make the necessary hardware settings for the card.
2. Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already installed in a
chassis).
3. Remove the bracket opposite the slot that you intend to use. Keep the screw
for later use.
4. Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is
completely seated on the slot.
5. Secure the card to the chassis with the screw you removed earlier.
6. Replace the system cover.

4.2 Configuring an expansion card

After installing the expansion card, configure it by adjusting the software settings.

1. Turn on the system and change the necessary BIOS settings, if any.
2. Assign an IRQ to the card. Refer to the tables on the next page.
3. Install the software drivers for the expansion card.

When using PCI cards on shared slots, ensure that the drivers support “Share
IRQ” or that the cards do not need IRQ assignments; otherwise, conflicts will
arise between the two PCI groups, making the system unstable and the card
inoperable. Refer to the table on the next page for details.

 5. Jumpers
1. Clear RTC RAM (3-pin CLEAR CMOS)
This jumper allows you to clear the Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM in
CMOS. You can clear the CMOS memory of date, time, and system setup
parameters by erasing the CMOS RTC RAM data. The onboard button
cell battery powers the RAM data in CMOS, which include system setup
information such as system passwords.
To erase the RTC RAM:

1. Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord.

2. Move the jumper cap from pins 2-3 (Normal) to pins 1-2 (Clear CMOS)
Keep the cap on pins 1-2 for about 5~10 seconds, then
move the cap back to pins 2-3.
3. Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer.
4. Hold down the <Del> key during the boot process and enter BIOS
setup to re-enter data.

Except when clearing the RTC RAM, never remove the cap from the default
position. Removing the cap will cause system boot failure!

2. ATX power connectors (24-pin ATXPWR, 4-pin ATX12V)

These connectors are for an ATX power supply. The plugs from the power
supply are designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the
proper orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit.

• Do not forget to connect the 4-pin ATX +12 V power plug; otherwise, the
system will not boot up.
• Make sure that your ATX 12V power supply can provide 8A on the +12V
lead and at least 1A on the +5-volt standby lead (+5VSB). The minimu
recommended wattage is 230W, or 300W for a fully configured system. The
system can become unstable and might experience difficulty powering up if
the power supply is inadequate.
• You must install a PSU with a higher power rating if you intend to install
additional devices.
