Handling Precautions
Warning:
1. Static electricity may cause damage to the integrated circuits on
the motherboard. Before handling any motherboard outside of its
protective packaging, ensure that there is no static electric charge
in your body.
2. There is a danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly
replaced. Replace only with the same or an equivalent type
recommended by the manufacturer.
3. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
4. Never run the processor without the heatsink properly and firmly
attached. PERMANENT DAMAGE WILL RESULT!
Observe the following basic precautions when handling the motherboard
or other computer components:
nWear a static wrist strap which fits around your wrist and is
connected to a natural earth ground.
nTouch a grounded or anti-static surface or a metal fixture such as a
water pipe.
nAvoid contacting the components on add-on cards, motherboards,
and modules with the golden fingers connectors plugged into the
expansion slot. It is best to handle system components by their
mounting brackets.
The above methods prevent static build-up and cause it to be discharged
properly.

Overview
Overview
Chapter 1
The new 1stMainboard®AM35Ôis an Micro ATX sized motherboard sup-
porting the latest generation of AMD®processors at industry leading speeds.
By utilizing DDR ( Double Data Rate ) transfer rate the 100/133 MHz system
bus effectively reaches Front Side Bus speeds of 200/266 MHz. The board
provides users with an ATA133 data transaction for hard drives and allows up
to 2 GB memory totally by 2 PC1600/PC2100 DIMM sockets.
The AM35 is based around the high performance V-link VIA ProSavageDDR
KM266Ôcore chip with VIA VT8233AÔ as a South Bridge. The AGP(2X/4X)
functions supported by KM266 provides you with a photo-realistic 3D expe-
rience suitable for the most robust 3D games and software environments.
AC97 Codec that embedded in VT8233A, ensures high quality sound effect.
The mainboard also comes equipped with the new NOVUS®range of innova-
tive features that assist in the installation and maintenance. The features in-
clude Easy Key, which provides instant keyboard access to the BIOS for
adjustments to Clock and Default settings and LogoGenie, which allows you
to create your own customized logo to be displayed during system boot up.
The BIOS Guardian is an Anti Virus utility that prevents viruses from damag-
ing your system BIOS and rendering your system inoperative.
Expansion is provided by 1 AGP(2X/4X) and 3 PCI slots. In addition, the
1stMainboard is equipped standard I/O connections include 2 serial ports (1
by pinheader), 1 parallel port, 1 VGA port, 1 PS/2 mouse and keyboard connec-
tor, 4 USB ports (2 by pinheader), 1 IR port by pinheader, and 1 media connec-
tor (Line-In, Line-Out, Mic-In, 1 front audio, 1 game port).

IMPORTANT:AMDCPUHEATSINKINSTALLATION
Be ware finish heat sink install. Before you boot system, please
check the heat sink is complete contact with die of CPU.
The poor contact will bring about over heat, it may damage your
processor.
Itisstrongly recommended that atleasta250-wattATXpower pupply
be used for this motherboard. Make sure that your ATX power sup-
ply can supply at least 20 amperes on teh +5-Volt lead and 10mA
on the +5-Volt standby lead (+5VSB). Your system may become
unstable / unreliable and may experience difficulty in powering up if
your power supply is inadequate.
NOTE: CD Pro that contains patch files, onboard video/audio chip
drivers, related online help and other useful information can be
found in your mainboard package.
Please install it right after your Windows operating system installa-
tion is done.
Place your CD Pro in the drive, an operating menu will
appears in your monitor. Please select
Auto Installation
. It will auto-
matically detect which software tools (patch files, drivers) that the
mainboard needs. Press OK button to go through the whole instal-
lation procedure in a very straight forward and easy way. It also
provides you with a custom way to select wanted patch files and
software drivers that for onboard chips use. The top menu of the
CD Pro lists all the functions that allowed by this board.

Overview
nAGP and PCI Expansion Slots
One AGP Bus and three PCI Bus expansion slots provided the room to
install a full range of add-on cards.
nCompact Onboard Audio Subsystem
Embeded in VIA VT8233A, an integrated high bandwidth Vlink client
controller, direct sound AC97 audio subsystem. UltraDMA master mode
EIDE controller, USB controller, ACPI enhanced power management, and
PC99 compliant.
nSuper Multi Input/Output (I/O) Support
Integrated Plug and Play multi-I/O chipset features two high-speed UART
16550 compatible serial ports, one EPP/ECP capable parallel port, one
VGA port, one IR port, one game port, and one FDD connector.
nConvenient Rear Panel USB Connection Support
Two USB ports integrated in the rear I/O panel and two extra USB ports
for either front or rear panel connection allow convenient and high-speed

nOnboard Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)
The motherboard is installed one 32-bit 1.5V AGP(2X/4X) bus with a
dedicated 66MHz/133MHz path from the graphics card to the system
memory offering much greater bandwidth than the 32-bit PCI bus does.
AGP enabled 3D graphics cards can directly access main memory across
this fast path instead of using local memory.
