2Introduction

Unpacking the Mainboard

The mainboard package contains:

¥ The EQ82C661X Mainboard

¥ This UserÕs Guide

Note: Do not unpack the mainboard until you are ready to install it.

Follow the precautions below while unpacking the mainboard.

1. Before handling the mainboard, ground yourself by grasping an

unpainted portion of the systemÕs metal chassis.

2. Remove the mainboard from its anti-static packaging and place it on

a grounded surface, component side up.

3. Check the mainboard for damage. If any chip appears loose, press

carefully to seat it firmly in its socket.

Do not apply power if the mainboard appears damaged. If there is

damage to the board contact your dealer immediately.

Electrostatic Discharge Precautions

Make sure you ground yourself before handling the mainboard or other

system components. Electrostatic discharge can easily damage the

components. Note that you must take special precaution when handling

the mainboard in dry or air-conditioned environments.

Take these precautions to protect your equipment from electrostatic

discharge:

¥ Do not remove the anti-static packaging until you are ready to install

the mainboard and other system components.

¥ Ground yourself before removing any system component from its

protective anti-static packaging. To ground yourself grasp the

expansion slot covers or other unpainted portions of the computer

chassis.

¥ Frequently ground yourself while working, or use a grounding strap.

¥ Handle the mainboard by the edges and avoid touching its

components.

2 Hardware Setup

This chapter is designed for Normal edition mainboard use only and it

explains how to configure the mainboardÕs hardware. After you install

the mainboard, you can set jumpers, install memory on the mainboard,

and make case connections. Refer to this chapter whenever you upgrade

or reconfigure your system.

CAUTION:Turn off power to the mainboard, system chassis, and

peripheral devices before performing any work on the

mainboard or system.

Jumpers

JP5: CMOS Clear Jumper

Clear the CMOS memory by momentarily shorting pin 2Ð3; then

shorting pin 1Ð2 to retain new settings.

CMOS Setting JP5

Retain CMOS data

(default)

Clear CMOS data

J25: EMI Ground Pin

J25 is designed for eliminating the EMI signals. Short or open J25 when

is needed.

Hardware Setup 7

JP16: PCI Bus Asynchronous/Synchronous Jumper

Asynchronous and synchronous (default) PCI bus frequency settings are

available.

PCI Bus Setting JP16

Asychronous

Synchronous

Divides the host bus by 2 to get the Asynchronous setting, and sets the

PCI bus on 32MHz to get the synchronous setting. Set JP16 to

Synchronous mode when the system is unstable.

Host Bus

(CPU Bus) PCI Bus Frequency

(Synchronous) PCI Bus Frequency

(Asynchronous)

50 MHz* 25 MHz 32 MHz

55 MHz* 27.5 MHz 32 MHz

60 MHz 30 MHz 32 MHz

66 MHz 33.3 MHz 32 MHz

75 MHz** 37.5 MHz 32 MHz

*: Do not use Asynchronous setting when the host bus frequency is

50MHz or 55MHz.

**: Do not use Synchronous setting when the host bus frequency is 75

MHz.
