2. While CPU overheat is detected, the system will automatically shutdown.

Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the

motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it

back again. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal

grease between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC system.

3. Do NOT use a 3.3V AGP card on the AGP slot of this motherboard!

It may cause permanent damage!

4. Power Management for USB 2.0 works fine under Microsoft®Windows® XP

SP1 / 2000 SP4. It may not work properly under Microsoft®Windows® 98 /

ME.

Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install mother-

board components or change any motherboard settings.

1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

component. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the

motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.

2. To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static

electricity, NEVER place your motherboard directly on the car-

pet or the like. Also remember to use a grounded wrist strap or

touch a safety grounded object before you handle components.

3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.

4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a

grounded antstatic pad or in the bag that comes with the

component.

5. When placing screws into the screw holes to secure the

motherboard to the chassis, please do not over-tighten the

screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

CPU Installation

Step 1. Unlock the socket by lifting the lever up to a 90° angle.

Step 2. Position the CPU directly above the socket such that its marked corner

matches the base of the socket lever.

Step 3. Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place.

The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU

into the socket to avoid bending of the pins.

Step 4. When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push

down the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab

to indicate that it is locked.

Step 5. Install CPU fan and heatsink. For proper installation, please kindly refer to

the instruction manuals of your CPU fan and heatsink vendors.

2.2 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)2.2 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

2.2 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

939A8X-M motherboard provides four 184-pin DDR (Double Data Rate) DIMM slots,

and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. For dual channel configuration, you

always need to install identical (the same brand, speed, size and chip-type) DDR

DIMM pair in the slots of the same color. In other words, you have to install identical

DDR DIMM pair in Dual Channel A (DDR1 and DDR2; Blue slots; see p.2 No. 6) or

identical DDRDIMM pair in Dual Channel B (DDR3 and DDR4; Black slots; see p.2

No. 7), so that Dual Channel Memory Technology can be activated. This motherboard

also allows you to install four DDR DIMMs for dual channel configuration, and please

install identical DDR DIMMs in all four slots. You may refer to the Dual Channel

Memory Configuration Table below.

Dual Channel Memory Configurations

DDR1 DDR2 DDR3 DDR4

(Blue Slot) (Blue Slot) (Black Slot) (Black Slot)

(1) Populated Populated - -

(2) - - Populated Populated

(3)* Populated Populated Populated Populated

* For the configuration (3), please install identical DDRDIMMs in all four slots.

* It is recommended to installDDR3 andDDR4 (black slots) first. Then to install

inDDR1 andDDR2. (That is, to populateDDRDIMM from the far side of CPU

towards to the near side of CPU.)

1. If you want to install two different memory modules, for optimal

compatibility and reliability, it is recommended to install them in the

slots of different color. In other words, install them either in DDR1

and DDR3.

2. If only one memory module or three memory modules are installed

in the DDR DIMM slots on this motherboard, it is unable to activate

the Dual Channel Memory Technology.

3. If a pair of memory modules is NOT installed in the same Dual

Channel, for example, installing a pair of memory modules inDDR1

and DDR3, it is unable to activate the Dual Channel Memory Tech-

nology .

Installing a DIMMInstalling a DIMM

Installing a DIMM

Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or

removing DIMMs or the system components.

STEP1: Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.

STEP2: Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on theDIMM matches the

break on the slot.

The DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent

damage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the

slot at incorrect orientation.

STEP3: Firmly insert the DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends

fully snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.
