2.Installation
P4V88-M+ is a Micro ATX form factor (9.6-in x 8.5-in, 24.4 cm x 21.6 cm) motherboard.Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to en-sure that the motherboard fits into it.
Pre-installation Precautions
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard com-ponents or change any motherboard settings.
1.Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
2.To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static electricity,
NEVER place your motherboard directly on the carpet or the like. Alsoremember to use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safety groundedobject before you handle components.
3.Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.
4.Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded anti-static pad or in the bag that comes with the component.
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the power isswitched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply.Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard,peripherals, and/or components.
10
2.1 CPU Installation
Step 1.Unlock the socket by lifting the lever up to a 90° angle.
Step 2.Position the CPU directly above the socket such that its marked cornermatches the base of the socket lever.
Step 3.
Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place.
The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force theCPU into the socket to avoid bending of the pins.
Step 4.
When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push downthe socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab toindicate that it is locked.

2.2 Installation of CPU Fan and Heatsink
This motherboard adopts 478-pin CPU socket to support Intel® Pentium® 4 /Celeron® CPU. It requires larger heatsink and cooling fan to dissipate heat.You also need to spray thermal grease between the CPU and the heatsink toimprove heat dissipation. Make sure that the CPU and the heatsink are se-curely fastened and in good contact with each other. Then connect the CPUfan to the CPU_FAN connector (CPU_FAN1, see p.8 No. 2). For properinstallation, please kindly refer to the instruction manuals of the CPU fan andthe heatsink.
11
2.3 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)
P4V88-M+ motherboard provides two 184-pin DDR (Double Data Rate) DIMM slots,and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. For dual channel configuration, youalways need to install two identical (the same brand, speed, size and chip-type)memory modules in the DDR DIMM slots to activate Dual Channel Memory Technology.Otherwise, it will operate at single channel mode.
If you install only one memory module or two non-identical memorymodules, it is unable to activate the Dual Channel Memory Technology.
Installing a DIMM
Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding orremoving DIMMs or the system components.
Step 1.Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.
Step 2.
Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the breakon the slot.
notchbreaknotchbreakThe DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanentdamage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into theslot at incorrect orientation.
Step 3.
Firmly insert the DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends fullysnap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.
12
2.4 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)
There are 2 PCI slots and 1 AGP slot on P4V88-M+ motherboard.
PCI slots:PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI
interface.
AGP slot:The AGP slot is used to install a graphics card. The ASRock AGP slot has
a special design of clasp that can securely fasten the inserted graphicscard.
Please do NOT use a 3.3V AGP card on the AGP slot of this motherboard!It may cause permanent damage! For the voltage information of yourAGP card, please check with the AGP card vendors.
Installing an expansion card
Step 1.
Before installing the expansion card, please make sure that the powersupply is switched off or the power cord is unplugged. Please read thedocumentation of the expansion card and make necessary hardwaresettings for the card before you start the installation.
Step 2.Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already installed in achassis).
Step 3.Remove the bracket facing the slot that you intend to use. Keep the screwsfor later use.
Step 4.Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card iscompletely seated on the slot.
Step 5.Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.Step 6.
Replace the system cover.

Note:CLRCMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in CMOS includes
system setup information such as system password, date, time, and systemsetup parameters. To clear and reset the system parameters to default setup,please turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the powersupply. After waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper cap to short 2 pins onCLRCMOS1 for 5 seconds. However, please do not clear the CMOS right afteryou update the BIOS. If you need to clear the CMOS when you just finishupdating the BIOS, you must boot up the system first, and then shut it downbefore you do the clear-CMOS action.

2.8 Hot Plug and Hot Swap F2.8 Hot Plug and Hot Swap Functions for SAunctions for SAunctions for SAT
TA HDDsP4V88-M+ motherboard supports Hot Plug and Hot Swap functions for
SATA Devices.
NOTE
What is Hot Plug Function?
If the SATA HDDs are NOT set for RAID configuration, it is called “HotPlug” for the action to insert and remove the SATA HDDs while the systemis still power-on and in working condition.
However, please note that it cannot perform Hot Plug if the OS has beeninstalled into the SATA HDD.
What is Hot Swap Function?
If SATA HDDs are built as RAID1 then it is called “Hot Swap” for the actionto insert and remove the SATA HDDs while the system is still power-onand in working condition.

Installing Windows 2000 / Windows XP With RAIDFunctions
If you want to install Windows 2000 / Windows XP OS on your SATAHDDs with RAID functions, please follow the below steps.STEP 1: Make a SATA Driver Diskette.
A. Insert the ASRock Support CD into your optical drive to boot your system.
B. During POST at the beginning of system boot-up, press C. When you see the message on the screen, “Do you want to generate Serial ATA driver diskette [YN]?”, press Please insert a diskette into the floppy drive. WARNING! Formatting the floppy diskette will lose ALL data in it! Start to format and copy files [YN]? Please insert a floppy diskette into the floppy drive, and press STEP 2: Use “SATA RAID BIOS” to set RAID configuration. Before you start to configure the RAID function, you need to check theinstallation guide in the Support CD for proper configuration. Please referto the document in the Support CD, “Guide to SATA Hard Disks Installationand RAID Configuration”, which is located in the folder at the followingpath: .. \\ SATA RAID BIOS STEP 3: Install Windows 2000 / Windows XP OS on your system. After making a SATA driver diskette and using “SATA RAID BIOS” to setRAID configuration, you can start to install Windows 2000 / Windows XPon your system.After the installation of Windows 2000 / Windows XP OS, if you want to manageRAID functions, you are allowed to use both “SATA RAID BIOS” and “VIA RAIDTool” for RAID configuration. Please refer to the document in the Support CD, “Guide to SATA Hard Disks Installation and RAID Configuration”, which is located inthe folder at the following path: .. \\ SATA RAID BIOS and the document in thesupport CD, “Guide to VIA RAID Tool”, which is located in the folder at thefollowing path: .. \\ VIA RAID Tool 1. Windows 98 / Windows ME does not support RAID functions.2. If you want to use “VIA RAID Tool” in Windows environment, please install SATA drivers from the Support CD again so that “VIA RAID Tool” will be installed to your system as well.19 2.10Installing Windows 98 / ME / 2000 / XPWithout RAID Functions If you want to install Windows 98 / ME / 2000 / XP on your SATA HDDs withoutRAID functions or you want to install Windows 98 / ME / 2000 / XP on your IDEHDDs instead of SATA HDDs, please follow the below steps. If you want to install Windows 98 / Windows ME on your SATA HDDs without RAID functions, you don’t have to set up BIOS. Please install Windows 98 / Windows ME OS on your system directly. STEP 1: Set Up BIOS. (For Windows 2000 / XP) A. Enter BIOS SETUP UTILITY¡÷Advanced screen¡÷IDE Configuration. B. Set the “SATA Operation Mode” option from [RAID] to [non-RAID]. STEP 2: Install Windows 98 / ME / 2000 / XP OS on your system. After setting up BIOS, you can start to install Windows 98 / ME / 2000 /XP on your system.
