Abandon all CMOS value change without saving 46 Troubleshooting 5 Troubleshooting 5 1 General Troubleshooting Tips 1 Is your system properly assembled and configured a Make sure the BIOS setup is set to default optimal settings Pressing lt F2 gt or lt DEL gt key to enter the setup select Default or Optimal settings then save and exit the setup b For Windows 2000 that require ACPI support make sure the ACPI option on your BIOS is enable Some EOL boards will not support it at all c ls your board jumpered according to the manual Jumpers in the website d ls all or any of your peripherals seated properly that includes CPU memory video card etc You may even want to try re seating them e Is your power supply switched on for those have an on off switch on the back of the power supply and plugged in Is your power supply set for proper voltage 115 or 120 for US 220 or 230 for Europe For Europe if your power supply is set at 115 or 120 and accidentally plugged with 220 or 230 volt power outlet your system may be already damaged in that case consult your vendor f Some problems and or conflict can be resolved as simple as by flashing the BIOS with the latest version downloadable from our website 2 Is there any conflict with hardware and or drivers a Make sure your BIOS setup is in default settings b Make sure the drivers for the installed peripherals that you have are the latest version c2. Step 1 Pull the handling bar of the socket upward to the other end to loosen the socket s openings Step 2 Place the CPU on the middle of the socket orienting its beveled corner to line up with the socket s beveled corner Make sure the pins of the CPU fit evenly to the socket openings Handling Bar Step 3 Press the handling bar downward to fasten the CPU to the socket Warning It is strongly recommended that a heatsink and CPU cooling fan be used to prevent the CPU from overheating Applying a thermal jelly between the CPU and the heatsink fan will further cool the CPU 15 Installation 3 4 System Memory DRAM 3 4 1 DIMM Dual Inline Memory Module The motherboard features four 168 pin DIMM sockets share memory module If you have only one DIMM RAM note that you must insert it into DIMM 1 You can configure the system memory size from 8MB to 512MB in a variety of ways by using different combinations of the two 168 pin DIMM DIMM Slots 3 4 2 Installation Procedure Step1 Make sure Pin 1 of the DIMM match with pin 1 of the DIMM socket Step2 Insert the DIMM module into the DIMM socket vertically After inserting the DIMM module completely into the socket push up on the socket latches securing the DIMM into place 16 Installation If the pin 1 of the DIMM module does not line up with pin 1 of the socket the DIMM module will not be inserted correctly into the socket Be careful not to misf

4. Windows may have some old lingering drivers from an old setup and or an old motherboard you upgraded from These older drivers may be causing problems and or conflicts in your system The best step is to back up your data and re install Windows on clean drive WARNING Only experienced people should do this as data loss may be possible 3 Have you verified all of your system components for functionality a If you have problem running your system and unsure of which component is at fault please do a component inspection i CPU ll Memory iii Hard Drive iv Video Card if the motherboard does not equip with onboard video v Sound Card if the motherboard does not equip with onboard sound vi Network Card if the motherboard does not equip with onboard network 47 Troubleshooting vil Modem Card and or AMR viii SCSI Card if the motherboard does not equip with onboard SCSI ix Any other peripherals b If you have extra peripherals or components please do some swapping at a bare setup to narrow down the fault 1 If the fault is the motherboard and you are certain of it and with all exhaustive attempts to get it to work even at bare minimum and with slowest speed setup then it may require a repair or a replacement You can get it repaired or replaced for free if within warranty of your reseller Check your reseller for the warranty and exchange policies Please note that BCM DO NOT BACK reseller s warranty if it EXCEED
