Per maggiori e dettagliate informazioni su questa scheda madre si prega di fare riferimento alla versione
integrale del Manuale utente. Questa guida all’installazione veloce è intesa per costruttori esperi di
sistemi. Se questa è la prima volta che si cerca di installare un sistema, si consiglia di leggere, innanzi
tutto, la versione integrale del manuale oppure di chiedere aiuto ad un tecnico per l’installazione.
Installare il dispersore di calore CPU ed il gruppo della ventolina
Questa scheda madre fornisce una presa “Socket 478”
ZIF (Zero Insertion Force – forza d’inserimento zero)
per installare il processore Intel® Pentium® 4. Il
processore acquistato dovrebbe essere fornito di
dispersore di calore e ventolina per il raffreddamento.
In caso contrario acquistare un dispersore di calore
specifico per la presa Socket 478 Pentium®.
1. Ubicare la presa ZIF a 478 pin sulla scheda madre.
Stringere la base del modulo di trattenimento
sulla scheda madre.
Attenzione: Se si impiega un telaio progettato
specificatamente per il processore Pentium® 4, si
prega prestare attenzione all’ubicazione delle
guarnizioni metalliche o degli spaziatori, nel caso in
cui siano già installati sul telaio. Assicurarsi di non
permettere alle guarnizioni metalliche od agli
spaziatori di entrare in contatto con il cavo o con le
parti del circuito sul PCB.
2.
Tirare di lato la leva della presa CPU,
allontanandola dalla presa; poi sollevarla di 90
gradi. Inserire la CPU con l’orientamento corretto.
Non sforzare per inserire la CPU poiché si adatta
solamente in un dato orientamento. Chiudere la
leva della presa trattenendo la CPU.
3.
Mettere il dispersore di calore a faccia in giù sulla
CPU finché la copre completamente.
4.
Mettere la ventolina ed il gruppo del meccanismo
di trattenimento sul dispersore di calore.
Assicurarsi che tutti i quattro fermi di
trattenimento, su ciascun lato della ventolina e del
gruppo del meccanismo di trattenimento, scattino
in posizione nei fori ti trattenimento.
5.
Spingere verso il basso i fermi di trattenimento su
entrambi i lati della ventolina e del gruppo del meccanismo di trattenimento per fissarli con la base
del modulo di trattenimento.
6.
La ventolina, il gruppo del meccanismo di trattenimento e la base del modulo di trattenimento ora
dovrebbero essere fissati gli uni agli altri trattenendo al loro interno il dispersore di calore.

Attenzione: Non dimenticare di impostare la corretta frequenza multipla e BUS per il processore.
Installazione della scheda madre sul telaio
Dopo avere installato il processore sulla scheda madre si può iniziare a fissare la scheda madre sul telaio.
Innanzi tutto è necessario fissare la scheda madre al telaio. La maggior parte dei telai ha una base sulla
quale sono presenti diversi fori di montaggio che permettono di fissare in modo accurato la scheda madre
e, allo stesso tempo, di prevenire corto circuiti. Impiegare le borchie o gli spaziatori attaccati al telaio per
fissare la scheda madre.
Installare i moduli RAM
1.
Ubicare gli alloggiamenti DIMM sulla scheda.
2.
Tenere con delicatezza i lati del modulo DIMM
senza toccare i connettori.
3.
Allineare la tacca sul modulo con la nervatura
dell’alloggiamento.
4.
Premere
con
fermezza
il
modulo
nell’alloggiamento
finché
le
linguette
d’espulsione su entrambi i lati dell’alloggiamento
scattano sulla tacca di montaggio. Non forzare
eccessivamente il modulo DIMM perché quest’ultimo si adatta solamente in una direzione.
5.
Per rimuovere i moduli DIMM spingere contemporaneamente le due linguette d’espulsione
sull’alloggiamento, poi estrarre il modulo DIMM.
Attenzione: L’elettricità statica può danneggiare i componenti elettronici del computer o delle schede.
Prima di iniziare queste procedure, assicurarsi di avere scaricato completamente l’elettricità statica
toccando brevemente un oggetto metallico con massa a terra.
Connettori, collettori, interruttori ed adattatori
All’interno della copertura di ogni computer ci sono diversi cavi e prese che devo essere collegati. Questi
cavi e prese sono solitamente collegati uno ad uno ai connettori situati sulla scheda madre. E’ necessario
prestare particolare attenzione a qualunque orientamento del collegamento che possono avere i cavi e, se
necessario, notare la posizione del primo pin del connettore. Si installeranno alcuni adattatori per
particolari necessità quali l’adattatore SCSI, AGP, eccetera. Quando si installano gli adattatori sugli slot
della scheda madre, si ricorda di fissarli con le viti anche sul pannello posteriore del telaio.
Per informazioni dettagliate si prega di fare riferimento alla versione integrale del Manuale utente.
Collegamento dei connettori d’alimentazione ai connettori ATX12V
Ricordarsi che è necessario spingere con fermezza fino in fondo il connettore della sorgente
d’alimentazione ATX al connettore ATX12V, assicurando così un buon collegamento.
Impostazione BIOS
Quando l’hardware è stato installato completamente, accendere il computer ed andare alla voce BIOS per
impostare i parametri del processore. Per informazioni dettagliate si prega di fare riferimento alla versione
integrale del Manuale utente.

Thank you for choosing ABIT products. ABIT sells all our products through
distributors, resellers and system integrators; we have no direct sales to end-users.
Before sending email for tech support please check with your resellers or integrators if
you need any services, they are the ones who sold you your system and they should
know best as to what can be done, how they serve you is a good reference for future
purchases.
We appreciate every customer and would like to provide the best service to you.
Providing fast service to our customers is our top priority. However we receive many
phone calls and a huge amount of email from all over the world. At the present time it
is impossible for us to respond to every single inquiry. Therefore it is quite possible
that if you send an email to us that you may not receive a response.
We have done many compatibility tests and reliability tests to make sure our products
have the best quality and compatibility. In case you need service or technical support,
please understand the constraint we have and always check with the reseller who
sold the product to you first.
To expedite service, we recommend that you follow the procedures outlined below
before contacting us. With your help, we can meet our commitment to provide the
best service to the greatest number of ABIT customers:
1. Check the Manual. It sounds simple but we have taken a lot of care in making a
well-written and thorough manual. It is full of information that doesn't only
pertain to motherboards. The CD-ROM included with your board will have the
manual as well as drivers. If you don't have either one, go to our Program
Download Area of the Website or FTP server.
2. Download latest BIOS, software or drivers. Please go to our Program
Download area on our Website to check to see if you have the latest BIOS. They
are developed over periods of time to fixes bugs or incompatibilities. Also please
make sure you have the latest drivers from your peripheral cards makers!
3. Check the ABIT Technical Terms Guide and FAQ on our Website. We are
trying to expand and make the FAQs more helpful and information rich. Let us
know if you have any suggestions. For hot topics check out our HOT FAQ!

group,
alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.abit, is an ideal forum for the public to exchange
information and discuss experiences they have had with ABIT products. Many
times you will see that your question has already been asked before. This is a

5. Ask your reseller. Your ABIT authorized distributor should be able to provide
the fastest solution to your technical problem. We sell our products through
distributors who sell to resellers and stores. Your reseller should be very familiar
with your system configuration and should be able to solve your problem much
more efficiently than we could. After all, your reseller regards you as an important
customer who may purchase more products and who can urge your friends to buy
from him or her as well. They integrated and sold the system to you. They should
know best what your system configuration is and your problem. They should have
reasonable return or refund policies. How they serve you is also a good reference
for your next purchase.
6. Contacting ABIT. If you feel that you need to contact ABIT directly you can
send email to the ABIT technical support department. First, please contact the
support team for the branch office closest to you. They will be more familiar with
local conditions and problems and will have better insight as to which resellers
offer what products and services. Due to the huge number of emails coming in
every day and other reasons, such as the time required for problem reproduction,
we will not be able to reply to every email. Please understand that we are selling
through distribution channels and don't have the resources to serve every end-user.
However, we will try to do our best to help every customer. Please also remember
that for many of our technical support team English is a second language, you will
have a better chance of getting a helpful answer if your question can be
understood in the first place. Be sure to use very, simple, concise language that
clearly states the problem, avoid rambling or flowery language and always list
your system components. Here is the contact information for our branch offices:

not installed any new software or hardware recently, it is likely that you have a
defective component. Please contact the reseller from whom you bought the
product. You should be able to get RMA service there.
8. Reporting Compatibility Problems to ABIT. Because of tremendous number of
email messages we receive every day, we are forced to give greater weight to
certain types of messages than to others. For this reason, any compatibility
problem that is reported to us, giving detailed system configuration information
and error symptoms will receive the highest priority. For the other questions, we
regret that we may not be able to reply directly. But your questions may be posted
to the Internet news group in order that a larger number of users can have the
