23 hardware installation 23
Connectors when using a power supply providing a 2x4 12v and a 2x12 power connector remove the protective covers from the 12v power connector and the main power connector on the motherboard do not insert the power supply cables into pins under the protective covers when using a power supply providing a 2x2 12v and a 2x10 power connector 23
High power consumption be used 500w or greater if a power supply is used that does not provide the required power the result can lead to an unstable or unbootable system 23
The power connectors are compatible with power supplies with 2x2 12v and 2x10 power 23
To meet expansion requirements it is recommended that a power supply that can withstand 23
With the use of the power connector the power supply can supply enough stable power to all the com ponents on the motherboard before connecting the power connector first make sure the power supply is turned off and all devices are properly installed the power connector possesses a foolproof design connect the power supply cable to the power connector in the correct orientation the 12v power con nector mainly supplies power to the cpu if the 12v power connector is not connected the computer will not start 23

Heating overheating may result in damage to the cpu or the system may hang 24
The motherboard has a 4 pin cpu fan header cpu_fan a 3 pin sys_fan2 and a 4 pin sys_ fan1 system fan headers and a 3 pin power fan header pwr_fan most fan headers possess a foolproof insertion design when connecting a fan cable be sure to connect it in the correct orientation the black connector wire is the ground wire the motherboard supports cpu fan speed control which requires the use of a cpu fan with fan speed control design for optimum heat dissipation it is recom mended that a system fan be installed inside the chassis 24
These fan headers are not configuration jumper blocks do not place a jumper cap on the 24
This connector is used to connect a floppy disk drive the types of floppy disk drives supported are 360 kb 720 kb 1 mb 1 4 mb and 2 8 mb before connecting a floppy disk drive be sure to locate pin 1 of the connector and the floppy disk drive cable the pin 1 of the cable is typically designated by a stripe of different color for purchasing the optional floppy disk drive cable please contact the local dealer 24

The battery provides power to keep the values such as bios configurations date and time information in the cmos when the computer is turned off replace the battery when the battery voltage drops to a low level or the cmos values may not be accurate or may be lost 26
The sata connectors conform to sata 6gb s standard and are compatible with sata 3gb s and sata 1 gb s standards each sata connector supports a single sata device the marvell 9128 controller supports raid 0 and raid 1 refer to chapter 2 bios setup integrated peripherals and chapter 5 configuring sata hard drive s for instructions on configuring a raid array 26
Used batteries must be handled in accordance with local environmental regulations 26
When installing the battery note the orientation of the positive side and the negative side 26

Hardware installation 28 28
Instead of a single plug for information about connecting the front panel audio module that has different wire assignments please contact the chassis manufacturer 28
Ously if you want to mute the back panel audio only supported when using an hd front panel audio module refer to chapter 5 configuring 2 4 5 7 channel audio 28
Some chassis provide a front panel audio module that has separated connectors on each wire 28
The front panel audio header supports hd audio by default if your chassis provides an ac 97 28
The front panel audio header supports intel high definition audio hd and ac 97 audio you may connect your chassis front panel audio module to this header make sure the wire assignments of the module con nector match the pin assignments of the motherboard header incorrect connection between the module connector and the motherboard header will make the device unable to work or even damage it 28
You may connect the audio cable that came with your optical drive to the header 28
