Raptor AT – Installation Guide

Step 2 DRAM, CPU, Disk-on-Chip and

Cables Installation

Depending upon how your Raptor AT is configured you may need to install the following:

DRAM (DIMMs)

CPU

Disk-on-chip

Raptor AT Memory Configuration

The Raptor AT offers 3 DIMM memory sockets (Locations J28, J27 and J26 – Figure 1-2). They can be configured with 3.3V unbuffered SDRAM modules. It is very important that the quality of the DIMMs is good. Unreliable operation of the system may result if poor quality DIMMs are used. Always purchase your memory from a reliable source. We strongly recommend using PC100 memory module (REQUIRED when using PIII or 100MHz operation). The Raptor AT also supports ECC memories.

The Raptor AT uses standard DIMMs. To determine the actual capacity of a 1 by 64 DIMM, simply multiply the 1MB by 8.

CPU Installation

The Raptor AT currently supports the following CPUs:

Full series of Intel Celeron and PIII processors (PGA 370).

1. Improper installation of the CPU may cause permanent damage to both the system board and the CPU. -- Void of warranty

2.Always handle the CPU by the edges, never touch the pins.

3.Always use a heatsink and a CPU fan.
