MOTHERBOARD DESCRIPTION

1-1 INTRODUCTION

The SY-K7VIA AGP/PCI/AMR Motherboard is a high-performance Slot

A supported ATX form-factor system board. SY-K7VIA uses the VIA VT

8371 (KX 133) Chipset technology and supports Slot A class processors.

This Motherboard is fully compatible with industry standards and adds

many technical enhancements.

1-2 KEY FEATURES

ØCPU SUPPORT

The SY-K7VIA supports a wide range of AMD™ CPUs:

nAMD™(500~900) MHz

New released AMD™ Slot A CPUs will very likely be supported by the

SY-K7VIA as well.

ØCPU SETTINGS

The SY-K7VIA provides the user with a very complete and convenient

CPU setting environment. The CPU settings are auto detected and set

automatically, therefore rendering the use of jumpers obsolete.

nCPU FSB Frequency

The SY-K7VIA supports a wide range of CPU FSB frequency settings:

500,550,600,650,700,750,750,800,850,900

Motherboard Description SY-K7VIA

ØEXPANDABILITY

The SY-K7VIA provides all the standard expansion slots, and many more

additional expansion features:

uExpansion slots

n1 x 32-bit bus mastering AGP slot

n5 x 32-bit bus mastering PCI slots

n1 x 16-bit ISA slots

uEnhanced IO

nFloppy disk controller

n2x EIDE controllers with support for up to 4 Ultra DMA 33/66

devices

nStandard/EPP/ECP parallel port

n2x 16550 compatible serial ports

nIrDA compatible infrared port

n4x USB (Universal Serial Bus) connectors

nPS/2 mouse connector

nPS/2 keyboard connector

ØADVANCED FUNCTIONS

The SY-K7VIA supports advanced functions such as:

nATA 66 IDE Ports

In addition ATA33 (Ultra DMA/33)devices, the SY-K7VIA also

supports ATA66 (Ultra DMA/66) devices.

1-3 HANDLING THE MOTHERBOARD

To avoid damage to your Motherboard, follow these simple rules while

unpacking:

ØBefore handling the Motherboard, ground yourself by grasping an

unpainted portion of the system's metal chassis.

ØRemove the Motherboard from its anti-static packaging. Hold the

Motherboard by the edges and avoid touching its components.

ØCheck the Motherboard for damage. If any chip appears loose, press

carefully to seat it firmly in its socket.

Warning: Do not apply power if the Motherboard appears

damaged. If there is damage to the board, contact your dealer

immediately.

1-4 ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS

Make sure to ground yourself before handling the Motherboard or other

system components. Electrostatic discharge can easily damage the

components. Note that you must take special precautions when handling

the Motherboard in dry or air-conditioned environment.

To protect your equipment from electrostatic discharge, take the following

precautions:

ØDo not remove the anti-static packaging until you are ready to install.

ØGround yourself before removing any system component from its

protective anti-static packaging. (To ground yourself, grasp the expansion

slot covers or other unpainted portions of the computer chassis.)

ØFrequently ground yourself while working or use a grounding strap.

ØHandle the Motherboard by its edges and avoid touching its

components.
