Chapter 2: Board Installation
You are now ready to install your motherboard.
How to install our products right… the first time
The first thing you should do is reading this user’s manual. It contains important information that will make configuration and setup much easier. Here are some precautions you should take when installing your motherboard:
(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the antistatic bag.
Unplug the power from your computer power supply and then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). For the safest conditions, MiTAC recommends wearing a static safety wrist strap.
(2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the board, or flex the board in any way.
(3) Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips, connectors, memory modules, and leads.
(4) Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the antistatic bag that the board was shipped in.
(5) Inspect the board for damage.
The following pages include details on how to install your motherboard into your chassis, as well as installing the processor, memory, disk drives and cables.
NOTE: Do not apply power to the board if it has been damaged.

Please note that the illustrations are based on a G34 1944-pin Socket which may be look exactly like the motherboard you purchased. Therefore, the illustrations should be held for your reference only.
1. Locate the CPU socket.
2. Pull the CPU lever slightly away from the socket and then push it to a fully open position.
30 http://www.tyan.com
3. Lift the socket cover to a fully open position.
4. Take off the CPU protection cap.
5. Place the CPU in the CPU socket.
31 http://www.tyan.com
6. Close the socket cover and press the CPU socket lever down to lock the CPU in place.
7. Repeat the same procedures to install the other CPUs.
Heat sink Installation
After installing the processor, you should proceed to install the heat sink. The CPU heat sink will ensure that the processor do not overheat and continue to operate at maximum performance for as long as you own them. The overheated processor is dangerous to the motherboard.
For the safest method of installation and information on choosing the appropriate heat sink, using heat sinks validated by AMD
®
. Please refer to the AMD
®
website:
http://www.amd.com
The following diagram illustrates how to install heat sink onto the CPU of S8812.
8. Place the heat sink on top of the CPU and secure it to the motherboard with 2 screws.
9. Connect the heat sink Fan cable to the CPU0 FAN connector J55.
10. Repeat the same procedures to install the other heat sinks (CPU1 Fan: J9, CPU2 Fan:
J10, CPU3 Fan: J14).

2.5 Thermal Interface Material
There are two types of thermal interface materials designed for use with the processors.
The most common material comes as a small pad attached to the heat sink at the time of purchase. There should be a protective cover over the material. Take care not to touch this material.
Simply remove the protective cover and place the heat sink on the processor.
The second type of interface material is usually packaged separately. It is commonly referred to as ‘thermal compound’. Simply apply a thin layer on to the CPU lid (applying too much will actually reduce the cooling).
NOTE: Always check with the manufacturer of the heat sink & processor to ensure that the thermal interface material is compatible with the processor and meets the manufacturer’s warranty requirements.

2.6 Tips on Installing Motherboard in Chassis
Before installing your motherboard, make sure your chassis has the necessary motherboard support studs installed. These studs are usually metal and are gold in color. Usually, the chassis manufacturer will pre-install the support studs. If you are unsure of stud placement, simply lay the motherboard inside the chassis and align the screw holes of the motherboard to the studs inside the case. If there are any studs missing, you will know right away since the motherboard will not be able to be securely installed.
34 http://www.tyan.com
Some chassis include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are usable,
MiTAC recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard more securely in place.
Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and how they should be installed.

2.9 Installing Add-In Cards
Before installing add-in cards, it’s helpful to know if they are fully compatible with your motherboard. For this reason, we’ve provided the diagrams below, showing the slots that may appear on your motherboard.
PCI-E Gen. 2 x 16 slot (x16 signal)
PCI-E x8 slot (x8 signal)
Simply find the appropriate slot for your add-in card and insert the card firmly. Do not force any add-in cards into any slots if they do not seat in place. It is better to try another slot or return the faulty card rather than damaging both the motherboard and the add-in card.
TIP: It’s a good practice to install add-in cards in a staggered manner rather than making them directly adjacent to each other. Doing so allows air to circulate within the chassis more easily, thus improving cooling for all installed devices.
NOTE:
You must always unplug the power connector to the motherboard before performing system hardware changes to avoid damaging the board or expansion device.

A cross head (Phillips) screwdriver
A grounding strap or an anti-static pad
Most of the electrical and mechanical connections can be disconne-
-cted with your hands. It is recommended that you do not use pliers to remove connectors as it may damage the soft metal or plastic parts of the connectors.
53 http://www.tyan.com
4.0.4 Precautions
Components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by discharges of static electricity. Working on a system that is connected to a power supply can be extremely dangerous.
Follow the guidelines below to avoid damage to FT48-B8812 or injury to yourself.
Ground yourself properly before removing the top cover of the system. Unplug the power from the power supply and then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). If available, wear a grounded wrist strap. Alternatively, discharge any static electricity by touching the bare metal chassis of the unit case, or the bare metal body of any other grounded appliance.
Avoid touching motherboard components, IC chips, connectors, memory modules, and leads.
The motherboard is pre-installed in the system. When removing the motherboard, always place it on a grounded anti-static surface until you are ready to reinstall it.
Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do not touch the components on the board unless it is necessary to do so. Do not flex or stress circuit boards.
Leave all components inside the static-proof packaging that they ship with until they are ready for installation.
After replacing optional devices, make sure all screws, springs, or other small parts are in place and are not left loose inside the case. Metallic parts or metal flakes can cause electrical shorts.
Note:
All connectors are keyed to only attach one way.
All use the correct screw size as indicated in the procedures.

Chapter 6: BIOS Setup
6.1 About the BIOS
The BIOS is the basic input/output system, the firmware on the motherboard that enables your hardware to interface with your software. The BIOS determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. The BIOS contains all the code required to control the keyboard, display screen, disk drives, serial communications, and a number of miscellaneous functions. This chapter describes the various BIOS settings that can be used to configure your system.
The BIOS section of this manual is subject to change without notice and is provided for reference purposes only. The settings and configurations of the BIOS are current at the time of print and are subject to change, and therefore may not match exactly what is displayed on screen.
This section describes the BIOS setup program. The setup program lets you modify basic configuration settings. The settings are then stored in a dedicated, battery-backed memory (called NVRAM) that retains the information even when the power is turned off.
To start the BIOS setup utility:
1.
2.
Turn on or reboot your system.
Press <Del> during POST (F4 on remote console) to start the BIOS setup utility.
6.1.1 Setup Basics
The table below shows how to navigate in the setup program using the keyboard.

Changes settings.
85 http://www.tyan.com
6.1.2 Getting Help
Pressing [
F1] will display a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and the possible selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window, press
[
ESC] or the [F1] key again.
6.1.3 In Case of Problems
If you have trouble booting your computer after making and saving the changes with the BIOS setup program, you can restart the computer by holding the power button down until the computer shuts off (usually within 4 seconds); resetting by pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL; or clearing the CMOS.
The best advice is to only alter settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular, do not change settings in the Chipset section unless you are absolutely sure of what you are doing.
The Chipset defaults have been carefully chosen either by MiTAC or your system manufacturer for best performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small change to the Chipset setup options may cause the system to become unstable or unusable.
6.1.4 Setup Variations
Not all systems have the same BIOS setup layout or options. While the basic look and function of the BIOS setup remains more or less the same for most systems, the appearance of your
Setup screen may differ from the charts shown in this section. Each system design and chipset combination requires a custom configuration. In addition, the final appearance of the Setup program depends on the system designer. Your system designer may decide that certain items should not be available for user configuration, and remove them from the BIOS setup program.
NOTE: The following pages provide the details of BIOS menu. Please be noticed that the BIOS menu are continually changing due to the BIOS updating. The BIOS menu provided are the most updated ones when this manual is written. Please visit TYAN’s website at http://www.tyan.com for the information of BIOS updating.

Appendix IV: Technical Support
If a problem arises with your system, you should first turn to your dealer for direct support. Your system has most likely been configured or designed by them and they should have the best idea of what hardware and software your system contains. Hence, they should be of the most assistance for you. Furthermore, if you purchased your system from a dealer near you, take the system to them directly to have it serviced instead of attempting to do so yourself (which can have expensive consequences).
If these options are not available for you then TYAN Computer Corporation can help. Besides designing innovative and quality products for over a decade,
Tyan has continuously offered customers service beyond their expectations.
TYAN's website (
www.tyan.com
) provides easy-to-access resources such as in-depth Linux Online Support sections with downloadable Linux drivers and comprehensive compatibility reports for chassis, memory and much more.
