SDRAMs. It also supports Dual Channel Technology and allows you installing a total memory

capacity of 4 GB.

This mainboard provides one PCI-Express interface slot up to x16 mode which is

recommended that insert a graphics card onto the PCI-Espress x16 slot. In addition, two

standard PCI slots for use with standard PCI expansion cards are also allowed.

The PM945GC(V2.0) provides one floppy disk drive connector that can be used with

360KB/720KB/1.2MB/1.44MB/2.88MB drives. It also has one IDE connector for IDE hard drives

supporting Ultra ATA 100/66/33. Moreover, this mainboard comes with Serial ATA II support

with four SATA II connectors which provide up to 3 Gbps data transfer rates.

The onboard High Definition Audio CODEC (ALC662) supports high quality performance

6-channel audio play <See Appendix I>. The mainboard also supports the Sony/Philips

Digital Interfaces (S/PDIF) output function (optional).

The PM945GC(V2.0) also comes with an onboard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN chip. There is a

LAN port on the back panel of your case that you can directly plug into an Internet cable.

Hardware Installation

This section will assist you in quickly installing your system hardware. Wear a wrist ground strap before

handling components. Electrostatic discharge may damage the system’s components.

CPU Processor Installation

This mainboard supports Intel®CoreTM 2 Duo/ Pentium®D/ Pentium®4/ Celeron®D/ Celeron®Processors

using a Socket 775. Before building your system, we suggest you to visit the Intel website and review the

processor installation procedures. http://www.intel.com

CPU Socket 775 Configuration Steps:

1. Locate the CPU socket 775 on your

mainboard and nudge the lever away

from the socket as shown. Then lift the

lever to a 140-degree angle (A). Next,

lift up the iron cover (B).

2. There are 2 distinctive marks located

near the corners of the socket on the

same side as the lever as shown (C).

Match these marks with the marks on the

CPU and carefully lower the CPU down

onto the socket (D).

3. Replace the iron cover and then lower

the lever until it snaps back into position

(E). This will lock down the CPU (F).

4. Smear thermal grease on the top of the CPU. Lower the CPU fan

onto the CPU/CPU socket and secure it using the attachments or

screws provided on the fan. Finally, attach the fan power cord

to the CPUFAN header.

Attention

DO NOT touch the CPU pins in case they are damaged. Also, make sure

that you have completed all installation steps before powered on the

system. Finally, double-check that the cooling fan is properly installed

and the CPU fan power cord is securely attached, in case your CPU and

other sensitive components are damaged because of high temperatures.
