How to dismantle and reassemble the system is described in the operating manual accompanying the system. Connecting cables for peripherals must be adequately shielded to avoid interference.

Observe the safety notes in the operating manual of your system. Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion. It is therefore essential to observe the instructions in the "Add-on modules / Upgrading" - "Replacing the lithium battery" section. Components can become very hot during operation. Ensure you do not touch components when making extensions to the mainboard. There is a danger of burns! The shipped version of this board complies with the requirements of the EEC directive 89/336/EEC "Electromagnetic compatibility". Compliance was tested in a typical PC configuration. When installing the board, refer to the specific installation information in the manual for the receiving device.

The warranty is invalidated if the system is damaged during the installation or replacement of expansions. Information on which expansions you can use is available from your sales outlet or the customer service centre. Information about boards To prevent damage to the mainboard, the components and conductors on it, please take great care when you insert or remove boards. Take great care to ensure that extension boards are slotted in straight, without damaging components or conductors on the mainboard, or any other components, for example EMI spring contacts. Remove the plug from the mains outlet so that system and mainboard are totally disconnected from the mains voltage. Be careful with the locking mechanisms (catches, centring pins etc.) when you replace the mainboard or components on it, for example memory modules or processors. Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for leverage. Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are identifiable by the label shown. When you handle boards fitted with ESDs, you must, under all circumstances, observe the following:

You must always discharge static build up (e.g. by touching a grounded object) before working. The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges. Remove the power plug from the mains supply before inserting or removing boards containing ESDs. Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges. Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs. A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 List of features List of features Onboard features Chipset D1555-C SiS 648 / 963 Board size VGA ATX

A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 Brief instructions on installing mainboard If you have purchased a separate mainboard, you can install the mainboard in your system in accordance with the following brief instructions. The activities described here assume a basic knowledge of PCs and cannot be carried out by a layperson. If you are not sure whether you have the necessary specialised knowledge, then leave this work to an expert. The illustrations of the system show examples of possible cases. Prior to installation

Please take note of the safety information in the "Important notes" chapter. Check whether the processor, memory modules and power supply are suitable for this mainboard:

processor (see "Replacing processor" chapter).

memory modules (see "Upgrading main memory" chapter).

power supply (see "Electrical Properties" chapter).

Make sure the current requirement of the fans (processor, case) does not exceed the loadability of the fan connections (see chapter entitled "Electrical Properties").

First only install the components absolutely necessary (graphics card, processor and heat sink, one memory module) and only connect the required connections (power supply unit, case connections such as ATX on/off switch, hard disk or floppy disk drive). You should not install additional cards and devices until this minimum configuration successfully boots (see chapter entitled "Add-on modules / Upgrading"). Installation

Equip the mainboard with the processor, heat sink and memory modules before installation if possible. Further information can be found in "Replacing processor" chapter.

A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 Open the casing as described in the operating manual. English - 5 Brief instructions on installing mainboard

Should no suitable connection field be provided in the case, then you must install the connection field (1) provided. Ensure the plate is aligned properly so that the connections are suitable for the mainboard later.

Set the mainboard on the edge on which the connection field is located (2) and then insert the board in the case (3). Make sure that spacers in the housing are only mounted at points at which there are mounting holes in the mainboard.

Fasten the mainboard with the screws. Connect the plugs for the power supply, control panel and drives to the corresponding connections on the mainboard. Driver installation

Install the drivers for the chipset. You may find the driver on the "Drivers & Utilities" CD. Please refer to chapter "Drivers" for a description of installing drivers.

Recovering System BIOS - switch 2 / pin pair 2 Switch 2 / pin pair 2 enables recovery of the old system BIOS after an attempt to update has failed. To restore the old BIOS you need a Flash BIOS Diskette (see "BIOS update" chapter).

The System BIOS executes from floppy drive A: and the inserted "Flash-BIOSDiskette" restores the System BIOS on the mainboard. Off Normal operation (default setting). Reserved - switch 3 and switch 4 (if present) Switch 3 and 4 are reserved. The position of the switch doesn't matter.

Exit energy-saving mode, switch off the system and remove the power plug from the mains outlet, before carrying out any of the procedures described in this chapter! Even when you have switched off the device, parts (e.g. memory modules, AGP and PCI extension boards) are still supplied with power. Replacing processor Technical data

Pentium 4 with 400/533 MHz Processor System Bus (PSB) in the mPGA478 design. Celeron with 400 MHz Processor System Bus in the mPGA478 design A current list of the processors supported by this mainboard is available on the Internet at: www.fujitsu-siemens.com/mainboards. Removing and installing processors

Remove the fan that there may be and the heat sink.

Pull the lever in the direction of the arrow (1) and lift it as far as it will go (2). Remove the old processor from the socket (3). Insert the new processor in the socket so that the angled corner of the processor matches the coding on the socket (A) with regard to the position (4).

The angled corner of the processor can also be at a different location than shown in the illustration. Push the lever back down until it clicks into place (5). A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 English - 15 Replacing processor Mounting heat sink Be sure to use heat conducting material between the processor and the heat sink. If a heat conducting pad (rubber-like foil) is already applied to the heat sink, then use it. Otherwise you must apply a very thin layer of heat conducting paste. Heat conducting pads can only be used once. If you remove the heat sink, you must clean it and apply new heat conducting paste before you remount it. Please note that, depending on the heat sink used, different heat sink mounts are required on the mainboard.

If a counter-plate is mounted on the underside of the mainboard for reinforcement, no heat sinks of the type "Intel Boxed" may be used. Otherwise the retaining clips of the heat sink will be damaged. When using an "Intel Boxed" heat sink, the mainboard must be converted. This conversion set is either included with the mainboard or is available separately. If no counter-plate is mounted, you can use both "Intel Boxed" heat sinks and standard heat sinks. If you use the "Intel Boxed" heat sink, the mainboard will bend due to the high pressure of the retaining clips. This behaviour is specified by Intel.

Depending on the configuration variant, you must pull a protective foil off the heat sink or coat the heat sink with heat conducting paste before fitting it.

Depending on the processor variant, clips may also be supplied for mounting the heat sink that fix it in place.

When you have mounted the optional fan, connect the fan plug to the corresponding connection on the mainboard. A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 Upgrading main memory Upgrading main memory Technical data Technology: DDR 266 or DDR 333 unbuffered DIMM modules 184-Pin; 2.5 V; 64 Bit, no ECC Size: 32 Mbytes to 3 Gbyte DDR 266 SDRAM 32 Mbytes to 2 Gbyte DDR 333 SDRAM Granularity: 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 or 1024 Mbyte for one socket A current list of the memory modules recommended for this mainboard is available on the Internet at: www.fujitsu-siemens.com/mainboards. At least one memory module must be installed. You may only use three double-sided memory modules for DDR 266 modules. You may only use up to two double-sided, three single-sided memory modules or one double-sided with two single-sided memory modules for DDR 333. Memory modules with different memory capacities can be combined.

You may only use unbuffered 2.5 V memory modules. Buffered memory modules are not supported. DDR-DIMM memory modules must meet the PC2100 or PC2700 specification. Memory clock pulse speed The memory clock pulse speed is affected by the processor chipset and system bus. The table shows the memory speed in dependence on the Processor System Bus. Processor System Bus (MHz) DDR333 (MHz) DDR266 (MHz)

Push the holders on each side of the memory slot outwards. Insert the memory module into the location (1). At the same time flip the lateral holders upwards until the memory module snaps in place (2). A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 English - 17 Upgrading AGP screen controllers Removing a memory module

Push the clips on the right and left of the memory slot outward (1). Pull the memory module out of the memory slot (2). Upgrading AGP screen controllers Technical data: The AGP slot supports the modes 4x/8x with 32 bits and 66 MHz. Only 1.5 V AGP graphics cards are supported.

Some older 3.3 V AGP graphics cards are coded like 1.5 V AGP graphics cards. The installation of such 3.3 V AGP graphics cards can cause serious damage to the mainboard and the AGP graphics cards. Adding PCI cards Technical data: 32 bit / 33 MHz PCI slots 5 V and 3.3 V supply voltage

3.3 V auxiliary voltage

PCI bus interrupts - Selecting correct PCI slot

To achieve optimum stability, performance and compatibility, avoid the multiple use of ISA IRQs or PCI IRQ Lines (IRQ sharing). Should IRQ sharing be unavoidable, then all involved devices and their drivers must support IRQ sharing. PCI IRQ Lines connect AGP slots, PCI slots and onboard components to the interrupt controller. PCI IRQ Lines are permanently wired on the mainboard. Which ISA IRQs are assigned to the PCI IRQ Lines is normally automatically specified by the BIOS (see description in "BIOS Setup").

A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 Adding PCI cards Monofunctional expansions cards: Standard AGP and PCI expansion cards require a maximum of one interrupt, which is called the PCI interrupt INT A. Expansion cards that do not require an interrupt can be installed in any desired slot. Multifunctional expansion cards or expansion cards with integrated PCI-PCI bridge: These expansion cards require up to four PCI interrupts: INT A, INT B, INT C, INT D. How many and which of these interrupts are used is specified in the documentation provided with the card. The assignment of the PCI interrupts to the PCI IRQ Lines is shown in the following table: Onboard Controller PCI slot USB 1.1 PCI Interrupt Line AC97 2nd 3rd 1 (A)

Audio SMBus USB 2.0 1st Use the first PCI slots that have a single PCI IRQ Line (no IRQ sharing). If you must use another PCI slot with IRQ sharing, check whether the expansion card properly supports IRQ sharing with the other devices on this PCI IRQ Line. The drivers of all cards and components on this PCI IRQ Line must also support IRQ sharing. A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 English - 19 Adding PCI cards Replacing the lithium battery In order to permanently save the system information, a lithium battery is installed to provide the CMOS-memory with a current. A corresponding error message notifies the user when the charge is too low or the battery is empty. The lithium battery must then be replaced.

Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion! The lithium battery may be replaced only with an identical battery or with a type recommended by the manufacturer. Do not throw lithium batteries into the household waste. They must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations concerning special waste. Make sure that you insert the battery the right way round. The plus pole must be on the top! The lithium battery holder exists in different designs that function in the same way.

Press the locking lug in the direction of the arrow; the battery jumps somewhat out of the holder (1).

Remove the battery (2). Push the new lithium battery of the identical type into the holder (3) and press it downward until it engages (4).

A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 BIOS update BIOS update When should a BIOS update be carried out? Fujitsu Siemens Computers makes new BIOS versions available to ensure compatibility to new operating systems, new software or new hardware. In addition, new BIOS functions can also be integrated. A BIOS update should always also be carried out when a problem exists that cannot be solved with new drivers or new software. Where can I obtain BIOS updates? The BIOS updates are available on the Internet at www.fujitsu-siemens.de/mainboards. How does a BIOS update work? You have two ways of doing this:

1. BIOS update under DOS with bootable BIOS update floppy disk - brief description

Download the update file from out website to your PC. Insert an empty floppy disk (1.44 MB). Run the update file (e.g. 1522103.EXE). A bootable update floppy disk is created. Leave this floppy disk in the drive. Restart the PC. Follow the instructions on screen.

Detailed information on the BIOS update under DOS is provided in the manual on "BIOS Setup" ("Drivers & Utilities" CD).

2. BIOS update under Windows with DeskFlash utility

A BIOS update can also be carried out directly under Windows with the DeskFlash utility. DeskFlash is located on the "Drivers & Utilities" CD (from CD version 2001.05 with DeskViewOEM V5.0). In the Readme file in the subfolder DeskFlash you will find the installation instructions for DeskFlash. Further information on DeskFlash is provided in the file DeskView.PDF and in the DeskViewOEM online help. BIOS Recovery - Recovering System BIOS

All BIOS settings are reset to the default values. Open the casing as described in the operating manual. Set the switch for "Restore system BIOS" to ON. Close the casing as described in the operating manual. Insert a BIOS update floppy disk and start the PC. Note the signals issued from the loudspeaker. You have successfully restored the BIOS if you hear the signal sequence "short-short- long- long- long" and the diskette access indicator is dark. This can take a few minutes. A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 English - 21 Microcode Update

Open the casing as described in the operating manual. Set the switch for "Restore system BIOS" to OFF. Close the casing as described in the operating manual. Remove the floppy disk from the drive. Start the PC and invoke BIOS Setup. Select the menu item Reset Configuration in the menu Advanced and change the setting to Yes. Save the change and terminate BIOS Setup. The BIOS recovery has now been completed. The system restarts.

Detailed information on the BIOS recovery is contained in the manual "BIOS Setup" ("Drivers & Utilities" CD). Microcode Update What is a microcode update? As there are no drivers for processors, Intel offers the possibility from the P6 family (Pentium Pro) on to update the command set (microcode) of the processor. This enables minor errors to be corrected and the performance to be increased. To guarantee the best possible performance and error-free operation, Intel recommends updating the microcode for every new processor. Intel refers to the use of the processor without microcode updates as operation outside the specifications. Safety for processor on Fujitsu Siemens Computers mainboards If the processor uses an old or incorrect microcode, error-free operation cannot be ensured. Fujitsu Siemens Computers has therefore implemented a function on its mainboards that interrupts the booting process if no suitable microcode is available for the installed processor. The output error message is: Patch for installed CPU not loaded. Please run the bios flash update diskette. This message appears until the microcode update has been carried out. If the computer is nevertheless operated without a microcode update, error-free operation is not ensured. When should a microcode update be carried out? A microcode update should be carried out after the installation of a new processor. In contrast to the BIOS update, only an updated version of the processor command set is stored. The system BIOS remains unaffected by this.

Download the update file from out website to your PC. Insert an empty floppy disk (1.44 MB). Run the update file under DOS (e.g. 1495101.EXE). A bootable update floppy disk is created. Leave the floppy disk in the drive. Restart the PC. Follow the instructions on screen. To determine whether the latest microcode update has been loaded, the so-called Patch-ID of the processor can be read out.

Press the [F1] key in the BIOS Setup. The entry CPU / Patch ID is shown on the displayed information page. A list with the current processors and the related Patch-IDs is available on the Internet.

If the processor is not recognised, you also require the microcode update tool for processors of the P6 family. Drivers Only when no drivers are installed on your system, or you want to update these, proceed as follows:

Insert the CD "Drivers & Utilities Collection" into the CD-ROM drive.

Select DeskUpdate - Fully automatic installation. If the CD does not start automatically, run the START.EXE programme in the main directory of the CD. Follow the screen instructions. A26361-D1555-Z121-2-6319 English - 23 Annex Electrical Properties Loadability for connections and fuses
