Installing the W6-LI

Introduction

This chapter explains how to install the W6-LI system board, memory, CPU and peripherals.

WARNING: Before installing or removing any peripherals or components, make sure you have a clear work space and that you adhere to all anti-static precautions described in Chapter 1. Micronics recommends only trained technicians install and configure the system board.

Damage which occurs to the board while adding or removing peripherals or components may void the warranty. If prob- lems arise while installing peripherals, contact the computer dealer where you purchased the peripheral or Micronics’ Technical Support Department.

System Memory Support

The flexibility of the W6-LI is augmented by its support for Error Checking and Correction (ECC), Extended Data Out (EDO) and Fast Page Mode (FPM) DRAM memory. The W6-LI supports Error Checking and Cor- rection (with 72-bit DIMMs only) via the chipset.

EDO memory is designed to keep data available to the processor for an extended period of time. The EDO memory support extends the performance of conven- tional DRAM memory. The result is an improvement in memory-access performance on the W6-LI system board.
