(only for advanced users’ reference, see CAUTION 4)

OS: Microsoft® Windows® 98 SE / ME / 2000 / XP compliant

CAUTION!

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

Please check if the CPU fan on the motherboard functions properly before

you resume the system. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray

thermal grease between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC

system.

2. Do NOT insert a 3.3V AGP card into the AGP slot of K7NF2-RAID

motherboard!It may cause permanent damage!

3. 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.

4. Although K7NF2-RAID offers stepless control, it is not recommended to

perform over clocking. Frequencies other than the recommended CPU bus

frequencies may cause the instability of the system or damage the CPU.

The CPU host frequency of this motherboard is determined by the jumper-

setting. You must set the FSB jumper according to your AMD CPU before

you use the “Manual” option as the FSB setting in BIOS setup to perform

over clocking. Please check page 24 of “User Manual” in the Support CDfor

details.

Pre-installation PrecautionsPre-installation Precautions

Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard

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 carpet 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.

2.1 CPU Installation2.1 CPU Installation

2.1 CPU Installation

STEP1: Unlock the socket by lifting the lever up to a 90oangle.

STEP2: Position the CPU directly above the socket such that its marked

corner matches the base of the socket lever.

STEP3: 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.

STEP4: 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.

STEP5: 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)Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

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

Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

K7NF2-RAIDmotherboard provides three 184-pinDDR (DoubleData Rate)DIMM slots,

and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. To enable Dual-Channel mode, you

need to install 2DIMMs intoDDR1 and DDR3 slots.Although this chipset can work on

the Dual-Channel mode with 2 different modules, we recommend users to use two

identical (the same brand, speed, size and chip-type) memory modules in the DDR

DIMM slots for optimized performance.

If you install only one memory module, please install it on DDR1 first.

If you install 2 memory modules, please install them on DDR1 and

DDR3.

Installing a DIMMInstalling a DIMM

Installing a DIMM

Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or

removing DIMMs or the system components.

Step 1. Unlock aDIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.

Step 2. Align aDIMM 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 theDIMM if you force the DIMM into

the slot at incorrect orientation.

Step 3. Firmly insert theDIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends fully

snap back in place and theDIMM is properly seated.

2.3 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)2.3 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)

2.3 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)

There are 5 PCI slots and 1 AGP slot on K7NF2-RAIDmotherboard.

PCI slots: PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI

interface.

AGP slot: The AGP slot is used to install a graphics card.

The ASRock AGP slot has a special locking mechanism which can

securely fasten the graphics card inserted.

Please do NOT use a 3.3VAGP card on theAGP slot of K7NF2-RAID

motherboard! It may cause permanent damage! For the voltage

information of your VGA card, please check with the VGA card vendors.

Installing an expansion cardInstalling an expansion card

Installing an expansion card

STEP1: Before installing the expansion card, please make sure that the power

supply is switched off or the power cord is unplugged. Please read the

documentation of the expansion card and make necessary hardware

settings for the card before you start the installation.

STEP2: Remove the bracket facing the slot that you intend to use. Keep the screws

for later use.

STEP3: Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is

completely seated on the slot.

STEP4: Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.

2.4 Jumpers Setup

The illustration shows how jumpers are

setup. When the jumper cap is placed on

pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap

is placed on pins, the jumper is “Open”. The

illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1

and pin2 are “Short” when jumper cap is

placed on these 2 pins. Short Open

Jumper Setting

FSB_SEL0

(seep.2item30)

FSB_SEL1

(seep.2item29)

Note: The setting of the CPU front side bus frequency of this motherboard is by means of the

adjustment of jumper-setting. You must set the FSB jumper according to your AMD CPU

before you use the “Manual” option as the FSB setting in BIOS setup to perform over

clocking. Please follow the figures above to set the CPU front side bus frequency.

PS2_USB_PWR1 Short pin2, pin3 to enable

(seep.2item 1) +5VSB (standby) for PS/2

or USB wake up events.

Note: To select +5VSB, it requires 2 Amp and higher standby current provided by power supply.

JR1(see p.2item20)

JL1(see p.2item 20)

Note: If the jumpers JL1 and JR1 are short, both the front panel and the rear panel audio

connectors will work.

Clear CMOS Jumper

(CLRCMOS2)

(seep.2item24)

Note: CLRCMOS2 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in CMOS includes system

setup information such as system password, date, time, and system setup parameters. To

clear and reset the system parameters to default setup, please turn off the computer and

unplug the power cord from the power supply. After waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper

cap to short 2 pins on CLRCMOS2 for 5 seconds. However, please do not clear the CMOS

right after you update the BIOS. If you need to clear the CMOS when you just finish

updating the BIOS, you must boot up the system first, and then shut it down before you

do the clear-CMOS action.

FIDJumpers

(FID0, FID1, FID2, FID3, FID4)

(see p.2 item 2)

Note: The set of FID jumpers are designed to adjust the multiplier of CPU. For detailed information,

please refer to page 15 of user Manual in the Support CD.
