Introduction of BX6 Features 1-1

Chapter 1 Introduction of BX6 Features

The motherboard is designed for a new generation CPUs. It supports the Intel

SLOT1 structure (PentiumII/III and Celeronprocessors), up to 1GB of memory,

super I/O, and Green PC functions. The motherboard provides high performance

for server systems and meets the requirements for desktop system for multimedia

in the future.

Chapter 2 Installing the Motherboard

This BX6 motherboard not only provides all standard equipment for classic

personal computers, but also provides great flexibility for meeting future upgrade

demands. This chapter will introduce step by step all the standard equipment

and will also present, as completely as possible, future upgrade capabilities. This

motherboard is able to support all IntelPentiumII/III processors and Intel

Celeronprocessor now on the market. (For details, see specifications in

Chapter 1.)

This chapter is organized according the following features:

(1) Installing the Motherboard to the Casing

(2) Standard external connectors

(3) Jumpers and switches

(4) Installation of the PentiumII/III, CeleronCPU

(5) Installing the system memory

Before proceeding with the installation

Before installing the motherboard please be sure to turn off or disconnect the

power supply unit. Before making any modifications to the hardware

configuration of the motherboard, the power supply to any areas of the

motherboard you plan to modify should be turned off to avoid unnecessary

damage to the hardware.

User friendly instructions

Our objective is to enable the novice computer user to perform the installation by

themselves. We have attempted to write this document in a very clear, concise

and descriptive manner to help overcome any obstacles you may face during

installation. Please read our instructions carefully and follow them step-by-step.

Chapter 22-2

(1) Installing the Motherboard to the Casing

Most computer cases will have a base on which there will be many mounting

holes that allows the motherboard to be securely attached and at the same time,

prevents short circuits.

There are two ways to attach the motherboard to the base.

lwith spacers

lor with bolts

Please refer to the figure below that shows the studs and spacers, they may have

several types, but all look like the figures below:

Figure 2-1. The outline of stud and spacer

In principle, the best way to attach the motherboard is with bolts, and only if you

are unable to do this should you attach the board with spacers. Take a careful look

at the motherboard and you will see many mounting holes on it. Line these holes

up with the mounting holes on the base. If the holes line up, and there are screw

holes this means you can attach the motherboard with bolts. If the holes line up

and there are only slots, this means you can only attach the motherboard with

spacers. Take the tip of the spacers and insert it into the slots. After doing this to

all the slots, you can slide the motherboard into position aligned with the slots.

After the motherboard has been positioned, check to make sure everything is OK

before putting the casing back on.

Note: If the motherboard has mounting holes, but don’t line up with the holes on the base and

their are no slots to attach the spacers, don’t worry, you can still attach the spacers to

the mounting holes. Just cut the spacers (along the dotted line) (the spacer may be a

little hard so be careful of our hands). In this way you can still attach the motherboard

to the base without worrying about short circuits.
