MS7308D/E Mainboard User’s Manual

3.On the Socket-370, identify the Pin-1 corner. The Pin-1 corner is at the end of the locking lever when it is locked.

4.Match the Pin-1 corners and insert the processor into the socket. No force is required and the processor should drop into place freely.

5.Swing the locking lever down and hook it under the catch on the side of the socket. This secures the CPU in the socket.

6.All processors should be installed with a combination heatsink/cooling fan, connect the cable from the fan to the CPU fan power connector FAN1.

Install Memory

The mainboard has two DIMM sockets for system memory modules. You must install at least one memory module in order to use the mainboard.

DIMM1

DIMM2

For this mainboard, you must use 168-pin, 3.3V unbuffered SDRAM memory modules. If the installed CPU uses a 100MHz system bus, you must use PC100 or PC133 memory. If the installed CPU uses a 66MHz system bus, you must use PC66 memory. You can install any size memory module from 16 MB to 512MB, so the maximum memory size is 2 x 512MB = 1GB.

The edge connectors on the memory modules have cut outs, which coincide with spacers in the DIMM sockets so that memory modules can only be installed in the correct orientation.
