INTRODUCTION

The MS-6340 Micro-ATXVA mainboard is a high-performance

computer mainboard based on VIA®KT133 chipset. The MS-6340 is

designed for the AMD®Socket processor for inexpensive business/

personal desktop markets.

The KT133 chipset consists of the VT8363 system controller (552

pin BGA) and the VT82C686A PCI to ISA bridge (352 pin BGA). The system

controller provides superior performance between the CPU, DRAM, AGP

bus, and PCI bus with pipelined burst, and concurrent operation.

The VT82C686A integrates all system control functions such as

ACPI (Advances Configuration and Power Interface). The ACPI provides

more Energy Saving Features for the OSPM (OS Direct Power Management)

function. The VT82C686A chipset also improves the IDE transfer rate by

supporting Ultra DMA-33/66 IDE that transfers data at the rate 33/66MB sec.

This mainboard which supports KT133 chipset coupled with

VT8363and VT82C686A is ideal for high performance, high quality, high

energy efficient and high integration desktop AGP/PCI/ISA computer

systems.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION

2.1 Central Processing Unit: CPU

The mainboard operates with AMD®DuronTM/Athlon processor. The

mainboard uses a CPU socket called Socket 462 for easy CPU installation.

The CPU should always have a Heat Sink and a cooling fan attached to

prevent overheating.

3. Press the lever down to

complete the installation.

2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket

and look for the white dot or

cut edge in the CPU. Match

Pin 1 with the white dot/cut

edge. Then, insert the CPU.

It should insert easily.

1. Pull the lever sideways away

from the socket. Then, raise

the lever up to a 90-degree

angle.

2.1-1 CPU Installation Procedures

CHAPTER 2HARDWARE INSTALLATION

2-2

The mainboard CPU Bus Frequency can be set through BIOS setup.

If CPUClock = 100MHz

Core/Bus ratio = 7

then CPU core speed = Host Clock xCore/Bus ratio

= 700MHz

2.1-3 Fan Power Connectors: C_FAN1/S_FAN1

These connectors support system cooling fan with + 12V. It supports three

pin head connector. When connecting the wire to the connector, always

take note that the red wire is the positive and should be connected to the

+12V, the black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If your

mainboard has System Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a

specially designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of this function.

For fans with fan speed sensor, every rotation of the fan will send out 2

pulses. System Hardware Monitor will count and report the fan rotation

speed.

Note: Always consult vendor for proper CPU cooling fan.

2.2 Clear CMOS Jumper: JBAT1

A battery must be used to retain the mainboard configuration in CMOS

RAM. Short 1-2 pins of JBAT1 to store the CMOS data.

Keep Data Clear Data

Note: You can clear CMOS by shorting 2-3 pin, while the system is off.

Then, return to 1-2 pin position. Avoid clearing the CMOS while

the system is on, it will damage the mainboard. Always unplug

the power cord from the wall socket.
