1.3 Electrostatic Discharge Precautions
Make sure you ground yourself before handling the mainboard or
other system components. Electrostatic discharge can easily
damage the components. Note that you must take special
precautions when handling the mainboard in dry or air-conditioned
environments.
Take these precautions to protect your equipment from electrostatic
discharge:
· Do not remove the anti-static packaging until you are ready to
install the mainboard and other system components.
· Ground yourself before removing any system component from its
protective anti-static packaging. To ground yourself, touch the
expansion slot covers or other unpainted portions of the
computer chassis.
· Frequently ground yourself while working, or use a grounding
strap.
· Handle the mainboard by the edges and avoid touching its
components.

2.4 CPU Installation
Follow the following steps in order to install your Intel Pentium II
properly.
Step 1:
The heat sink may be different from various venders so be sure you
are in contact with heat sink vendors for attaching the heat sink on
to the CPU.
Step 2:
Install the 2 pairs of screws, which are shown in the following
drawing, onto the mainboard under Slot1.
16
650BX User's Manuall
Two of the screws are right around Slot1 and the other pair of
screws should be inserted opposite the first pair. The screws should
be inserted from the bottom of the motherboard upward.
Step 3:
Retention clip is shown in the following figure:
Set the board according to the following diagram before installing
the retention clip.
If installed incorrectly, you will not be able to insert the CPU into the
retention clip and in this situation you might need to rotate the
retention clip by 180°.
Tighten the 4 screws on the retention clip till the neck of the screws
can not be seen from the bottom of the board
Step 4:
Pull the latches up on the base of the CPU supporter and insert it
into the two holes directly to the left of the retention clip so that the
larger hole is on the bottom.
Press the base of the CPU supporter down in to the holes and lock
the latches.
17
650BX User's Manuall
Side View of CPU Supporter Base
Step 5:
Flatten the two latches on the side of CPU. Insert the CPU into the
retention clip. Lock the two latches to secure the CPU.
Step 6:
Insert the clip portion of the CPU supporter so that the heat sink can
sit on the top of the whole CPU supporter.
Top View of CPU Support Clip
Notice that the base and the clip of CPU Supporter may be different
from the figures shown here.
After completing all the settings before running the system, you
need to push the ATX power button so that the system will work.

AWARDBIOSSETUP
The ROM chips of your mainboard are configured with a customized
Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) from Award Software Inc. The
BIOS is a set of permanently recorded program routines that give
the system its fundamental operational characteristics. It also tests
the computer and determines how the computer reacts to specific
instructions that are part of programs.
The BIOS is made up of codes and programs that provide the
device level control for the major I/O devices in the system. It
contains a set of routines (called POST, for Power-On Self Test)
that check out the system when you turn it on. The BIOS also
includes CMOS Setup programs, so no disk-based setup program is
required. CMOS RAM stores information for:
· the date and time
· the memory capacity of the mainboard
· the type of display adapter installed
· the number and type of disk drives installed.
The CMOS memory is maintained by a battery installed on the
mainboard. By using the battery, all memory in CMOS can be
retained when the system power switch is turned off.
Use the CMOS Setup program to modify the system parameters to
reflect the options installed in your system and to customize your
system as desired. For example, you should run the Setup program
after you:
· replace the battery
· install another disk drive
· receive an error code at startup
· use your system after not having used it for a long time
19
650BX User's Manuall
· find the original setup missing.
Run the CMOS Setup program after you turn on the system.
On-screen instructions explain how to use the program.
3.1 Entering the CMOS Setup Program
1 . Turn on or reboot the system. After a series of diagnostic
cheeks, the following message will appear:
PRESS TO ENTER SETUP
2. Press the key and the main program screen appears as
in figure 3-1.
Figure 3-1. Main Program Screen
3. Use one of the arrows on the keyboard to select an option and
press . Modify the system parameters to reflect the
options installed in the system.
4. Return to the Main Menu anytime by press .
5. In the Main Menu, "SAVE AND EXIT SETUP" saves the
changes and reboots the system, and "EXIT WITHOUT
SAVING" ignores the changes and exits the program.

configuration and sets the system clock and error handling. Use this
option to change configuration values when changing the system

1. Choose "STANDARD CMOS SETUP" from the Main Menu and
a screen depicted in Figure 3-2 appears.
