CAUTION!

1. About the setting of “Hyper Threading Technology”, please check page

38 of “User Manual“ in the support CD.

2. This motherboard supports Untied Overclocking Technology. Please read

“Untied Overclocking Technology” on page 20 for details.

3. Due to the operating system limitation, the actual memory size may be

less than 4GB for the reservation for system usage under Windows®XP

and Windows®VistaTM. For Windows®XP 64-bit and Windows®VistaTM

64-bit with 64-bit CPU, there is no such limitation.

4. The maximum shared memory size is defined by the chipset vendor

and is subject to change. Please check NVIDIA®website for the latest

information.

5. Before installing SATAII hard disk to SATAII connector, please read the “SATAII

Hard Disk Setup Guide” on page 23 of “User Manual“ in the support CD to

adjust your SATAII hard disk drive to SATAII mode. You can also connect

SATA hard disk to SATAII connector directly.

6. Power Management for USB 2.0 works fine under Microsoft®Windows®

VistaTM 64-bit / VistaTM / XP 64-bit / XP SP1 or SP2.

7. It is a user-friendly ASRock overclocking tool which allows you to surveil

your system by hardware monitor function and overclock your hardware

devices to get the best system performance under Windows®

environment. Please visit our website for the operation procedures of

ASRock OC Tuner. ASRock website: http://www.asrock.com

8. Featuring an advanced proprietary hardware and software design,

Intelligent Energy Saver is a revolutionary technology that delivers

unparalleled power savings. In other words, it is able to provide excep-

tional power saving and improve power efficiency without sacrificing

computing performance. Please visit our website for the operation pro-

cedures of Intelligent Energy Saver.

ASRock website: http://www.asrock.com

9. Although this motherboard offers stepless control, it is not recom-

mended to perform over-clocking. Frequencies other than the recom-

mended CPU bus frequencies may cause the instability of the system

or damage the CPU.

10. While CPU overheat is detected, the system will automatically shutdown.

Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the

motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it

back again. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal

grease between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC

system.

Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install mother-

board components or change any motherboard settings.

1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

component. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the

motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.

2. To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static

electricity, NEVER place your motherboard directly on the carpet

or the like. Also remember to use a grounded wrist strap or touch

a safety grounded object before you handle components.

3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.

4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded

antstatic pad or in the bag that comes with the component.

5. When placing screws into the screw holes to secure the

motherboard to the chassis, please do not over-tighten the

screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

CPU Installation

For the installation of Intel 775-LAND CPU,

please follow the steps below.

Before you insert the 775-LAND CPU into the socket, please check if

the CPU surface is unclean or if there is any bent pin on the socket.

Do not force to insert the CPU into the socket if above situation is

found. Otherwise, the CPU will be seriously damaged.

775-Pin Socket Overview

ASRock N73PV-GS / N73PV-S Motherboard

Step 1. Open the socket:

Step 1-1. Disengaging the lever by depressing

down and out on the hook to clear

retention tab.

Step 1-2. Rotate the load lever to fully open po-

sition at approximately 135 degrees.

Step 1-3. Rotate the load plate to fully open po-

sition at approximately 100 degrees.

Step 2. Insert the 775-LAND CPU:

Step 2-1. Hold the CPU by the edges where are

marked with black lines.

Step 2-2. Orient the CPU with IHS (Integrated

Heat Sink) up. Locate Pin1 and the two

orientation key notches.

For proper inserting, please ensure to match the two orientation key

notches of the CPU with the two alignment keys of the socket.

Step 2-3. Carefully place the CPU into the socket

by using a purely vertical motion.

Step 2-4. Verify that the CPU is within the socket

and properly mated to the orient keys.

Step 3. Remove PnP Cap (Pick and Place Cap):

Use your left hand index finger and thumb to

support the load plate edge, engage PnP cap

with right hand thumb and peel the cap from the

socket while pressing on center of PnP cap to

assist in removal.

off the PnP cap.

2. This cap must be placed if returning the motherboard for after

service.

Step 4. Close the socket:

Step 4-1. Rotate the load plate onto the IHS.

Step 4-2. While pressing down lightly on load

plate, engage the load lever.

Step 4-3. Secure load lever with load plate tab

Installation of CPU Fan and HeatsinkInstallation of CPU Fan and Heatsink

Installation of CPU Fan and Heatsink

For proper installation, please kindly refer to the instruction manuals of your CPU fan

and heatsink.

Below is an example to illustrate the installation of the heatsink for 775-LAND CPU.

Step 1. Apply thermal interface material onto center

of IHS on the socket surface.

Step 2. Place the heatsink onto the socket. Ensure

fan cables are oriented on side closest to the

CPU fan connector on the motherboard

(CPU_FAN1, see page 2,No. 4).

Step 3. Align fasteners with the motherboard

throughholes.

Step 4. Rotate the fastener clockwise, then press

down on fastener caps with thumb to install

and lock. Repeat with remaining fasteners.

If you press down the fasteners without rotating them clockwise,

the heatsink cannot be secured on the motherboard.

Step 5. Connect fan header with the CPU fan

connector on the motherboard.

Step 6. Secure excess cable with tie-wrap to ensure

cable does not interfere with fan operation or

contact other components.
