SY-5SSM & SY-5SSM/5  
1-2 HANDLING THE MOTHERBOARD  
To avoid damage to your Motherboard, follow these simple rules  
while unpacking:  
Ø
Before handling the Motherboard, ground yourself by grasping  
an unpainted portion of the system's metal chassis.  
Remove the Motherboard from its anti-static packaging. Hold  
the Motherboard by the edges and avoid touching its  
components.  
Ø
Ø
Check the Motherboard for damage. If any chip appears loose,  
press carefully to seat it firmly in its socket.  
Warning: Do not apply power if the Motherboard appears  
damaged. If there is damage to the board, contact your  
dealer immediately.  
1-3 ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS  
Make sure to ground yourself before handling the Motherboard or  
other system components. Electrostatic discharge can easily  
damage the components. Note that you must take special  
precautions when handling the Motherboard in dry or air-conditioned  
environment.  
To protect your equipment from electrostatic discharge, take the  
following precautions:  
Ø
Do not remove the anti-static packaging until you are ready to  
install.  
Ø
Ground yourself before removing any system component from  
its protective anti-static packaging. (To ground yourself, grasp  
the expansion slot covers or other unpainted portions of the  
computer chassis.)  
Ø
Frequently ground yourself while working or use a grounding  
strap.

HARDWARE SETUP  
Congratulations on your purchase of SY-5SSM or SY-5SSM/5 Super  
7 Ô Motherboard. You are about to install and connect your new  
Motherboard.  
Note: Do not unpack the Motherboard from its protective  
anti-static packaging until you have made the following  
preparations.  
2-1 Preparations  
Gather and prepare all the following hardware equipment to  
complete the installation successfully:  
1.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
5.  
6.  
7.  
8.  
9.  
Pentium processor with CPU cooling fan.  
DIMM memory module  
Computer case and chassis with adequate power supply unit  
Monitor  
Keyboard  
Pointing Device (PS/2 mouse)  
Speaker(s) (optional)  
Disk Drives: HDD, CD-ROM, Floppy drive …  
External Peripherals: Printer, Plotter, and Modem (optional)  
10. Internal Peripherals: Modem and LAN cards (optional)  
Frequently Asked Questions:  
l
l
Do I need to install a VGA card?  
Do I also need to install a sound card?  
The answer is NO to both questions above, since, for your  
convenience, the SY-5SSM or SY-5SSM/5 Motherboard already  
features one built-in VGA port and three built-in audio-stereo ports  
(Line-out, Line-in, Microphone).  
Notice: If you plan on using the onboard VGA and intend to install  
only one DRAM memory module, then this single DRAM must be  
installed in bank DIMM1.  
l
What kind of speaker can connect to "Line-out" port?  
This Motherboard requires a speaker with built-in amplifier to  
generate proper output sound volume.

One Floppy Disk Drive Flat Cable  
One serial port flat cable with a 9-pin connector  
* If your board comes with a driver disc and a paper manual, the Quick Start Guide and the  
CD-ROM are not included in the package.  
Warning: Do not unpack the Motherboard from its anti-  
static packaging until you are ready to install it.  
Like most electronic equipment, your Motherboard may be damaged  
by electrostatic discharge. To avoid permanent damage to  
components ground yourself while working by using a grounding  
strap. Otherwise, ground yourself frequently by touching the  
unpainted portion of the computer chassis to drain the static  
charges.  
Handle the Motherboard carefully, holding it by the edges.  
You are now ready to start the installation.

2-3 Installation Guide  
We will now begin the installation of the Motherboard. Please follow  
the step-by-step procedure designed to lead you to a complete and  
correct installation.  
Step 1. CPU Installation  
Follow these instructions to install your Pentium® class processor  
correctly.  
Locate the CPU socket labeled Socket 7 on your Motherboard and  
note the distinctive pinhole arrangement.  
Note the corresponding pinhole arrangement on the processor.

Follow these steps to install the CPU in the Socket 7:  
1. Lift the socket handle up to a vertical position.  
2. Align the blunt edge of the CPU with the matching pinhole  
distinctive edge on the socket.  
3. Seat the processor in the socket completely and without forcing.  
4. Then close the socket handle to secure the CPU in place.

Step 2. CPU Fan Installation  
Your Pentium® processor kit comes with a cooling fan. Mount the fan  
on the processor according to the instructions provided by the  
manufacturer. The fan is a key component that will ensure system  
stability. The fan prevents overheating, therefore prolonging the life  
of your CPU.  
Note: Remember to connect the fan to the appropriate power  
source.

Please verify the correct voltage with your dealer before installation.  
Use the following tables to set JP30 to the proper "Voltage Value",  
according to the specifications marked on your CPU: This  
Motherboard comes with pre-configured setting of CPU voltage.  
However the voltage of your CPU maybe different with the default  
setting.  
l
CPU VOLTAGE SETTING (JP30)  
JP30 are the only jumpers that you need to set for your CPU voltage  
on this Motherboard.  
There are two kinds of CPU voltages currently on the market  
depending on the CPU manufacturer:  
Ø
Ø
Single Voltage (CPU: P54C, AMD-K5, Cyrix 6x86, IDT  
WinChip C6/W2, IDT WinChip 2)

Step 6. IDE Device Installation (HDD, CD-ROM)  
This Motherboard offers two primary and secondary IDE device  
connectors (IDE1, IDE2.) It can support up to four high-speed HDD  
or CD-ROM.  
Connect one side of the 40-pin flat cable to the IDE device (HDD or  
CD-ROM) and plug the other end to the primary (IDE1) or secondary  
(IDE2) directionally keyed IDE connector on the Motherboard.  
This Motherboard can support up to four HDDs.  
Note: This motherboard supports Ultra DMA 33 and Ultra  
DMA66 hard drives. Ultra ATA/66 hard drive requires a special  
40-pin, 80-conductor cable.  
Step 7. Floppy Drive Installation  
The system supports 5 possible floppy drive types: 720 KB, 1.2 MB,  
1.44 MB, 2.88 MB, and LS-120. In addition, this Motherboard  
supports a 3-mode (720KB/1.25MB/1.44MB) floppy commonly used  
in Japan.

Step 13. ATX Power Supply  
Plug the connector from the power directly into the 20-pin male ATX  
PW connector on the Motherboard, as shown in the following figure.  
ATX Power  
®
Warning: Follow these precautions to preserve your  
Motherboard from any remnant currents when connecting  
to ATX power supply:  
Turn off the power supply and unplug the power cord  
of the ATX power supply before connecting to ATX PW  
connector.  
The Motherboard requires a power supply with at least 200 Watts  
and a "power good" signal. Make sure the ATX power supply can  
take at least 10 mA* load on the 5V Standby lead (5VSB) to meet  
the standard ATX specification.  
* Note: If you use the Wake-On-LAN (WOL) function, make sure the  
ATX power supply can support at least 720 mA on the 5V Standby  
lead (5VSB).

If you are using a Cyrix 6x86/L/MX/M II series CPU, set the burst  
mode to Linear by shorting jumper J1, and follow the following steps  
to select the correct Linear burst mode in BIOS:  
1. During the boot-up initial sequence, press the [Delete] key to  
enter the BIOS setup menu.  
2. Select the [CHIPSET FEATURES SETUP] section in BIOS.  
3. In the [CHIPSET FEATURES SETUP] sub-menu, set the [Linear  
Burst] field to [Enabled].  
4. Press [Esc] to return to the BIOS main menu.  
5. Then choose [Save & Exit Setup] to re-boot your computer.
