vIntroduction

The G586VPM system board offers several advanced

features integrated into the system board. It supports two

320-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) CPU sockets for

PentiumTM processors running at 75MHz, 90MHz,

100MHz, 120MHz or 133MHz frequency. These ZIF

sockets allow users to easily upgrade their CPUs. The

G586VPM also supports Flash EPROM for easy BIOS

upgrades. Flash EPROM is a memory chip for the

storage of BIOS which can be erased in bulk or modi-

fied using a software utility.

Equipped with two built-in Bus Master PCI IDE con-

nectors, the G586VPM system board can control four

drives and supports fast PIO Modes 3 and 4 hard drives

and hard drives larger than 528MB. When the Bus

Master DMA Mode 2 IDE is enabled, the CPU utiliza-

tion rate will be highly reduced, thus taking full advan-

tage of the dual processors capability. The system board

is also equipped with two NS16C550A-compatible

serial ports, an SPP/EPP/ECP parallel port, a floppy disk

drive controller, and one mini-DIN-6 connector for the

PS/2 mouse.

The G586VPM can be configured to 22 different

memory sizes ranging from 4MB to 512MB using

256KBx32/36, 512KBx32/36, 1MBx32/36, 2MBx32/36,

4MBx32/36, 8MBx32/36 or 16MBx32/36 non-parity/

parity SIM modules.

Note:

The revision of the 75/90/100MHz processor must be

revision C2 or later. 120MHz and 133MHz for dual

processors will be supported in future revisions. Please

contact Intel or your dealer for details.

vInstallation Overview

This chapter summarizes the steps in installing the

G586VPM system board into your system unit. It also

includes a description of the area in which you must

work and directions for memory installation. Before

installing the system board, obtain the memory you plan

to install. Please refer to the memory chart on page 2-4

for the number and type of SIM modules needed for the

amount of memory you require.

Preparing the Area

Before unpacking the system board, make sure the

location you have selected is relatively free of dust and

static electricity. Excessive exposure to dust, static

electricity, direct sunlight, excessive humidity, extreme

cold and water can damage the system board. Avoid soft

surfaces such as beds and carpeted floors which can

hinder air circulation. These areas also attract static

electricity which can damage some circuits on your

system board.

Be sure that the power source has a properly grounded,

three-pronged socket. It is essential that the power

connection be properly grounded for correct functioning

of your system board. For further protection, we recom-

mend that you use a surge suppressor. This will protect

the system board from damage that may result from a

power surge on the line.

Move items that generate magnetic fields away from

your system board, since magnetic fields can also

damage your system board. Once you have selected the

ideal location, unpack the G586VPM system board

carefully.
