Cooling Solutions
As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance, thermal management
becomes increasingly crucial when building computer systems. Maintaining the proper thermal
environment is key to reliable, long-term system operation. The overall goal in providing the proper
thermal environment is keeping the processor below its specified maximum case temperature.
Heatsinks induce improved processor heat dissipation through increased surface area and
concentrated airflow from attached fans. In addition, interface materials allow effective transfers of
heat from the processor to the heatsink. For optimum heat transfer, Intel recommends the use of
thermal grease and mounting clips to attach the heatsink to the processor.
When selecting a thermal solution for your system, please refer to the website below for collection of
heatsinks evaluated and recommended by Intel for use with Intel processors. Note, those heatsinks are
recommended for maintaining the specified Maximum T case requirement. In addition, this collection
is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of all heatsinks that support Intel processors.

Introduction
Chapter 1
The special designed 2-user motherboard allows (P400TWIN) two users to share the
computing power of a single PC system. With integrated connectivity hardware onboard, the
motherboard comes with innovative software, the MagicTwin®, allowing 2 users to be
connected to it and runs up to two stations directly from it simultaneously. The unique and
copyright-protected MagicTwin® technology makes each of the 2 users feel like having
himself his own Windows-XP computer. Each user needs to have himself his own keyboard,
mouse, sound device, and monitor. All remaining PC hardware are shared, even the IP.
Both users can operate on their own station concurrently just like the operation of a standard
PC. There is no obvious delay because of the Time-slicing/Multiplexing technology built-in.
Each user gets an exact and extremely short defined moment to access to the PC system,
devices, applications and Windows itself. Resources are only claimed for nanoseconds at a
time, usually from electronic memory, or cache. Both users get from Windows and the PC,
what they really need when they need it! The MagicTwin solution turns the single PC into a
cost-effective multi-user system.
The setup is intuitive and easy. In only a few minutes, users can install and start using their
new workstation. No network administrator is needed as everything to network the
workstations together is done automatically with the MagicTwin software. You can add
immediately additional user station to the single system and turn one PC into two.

2-3-2 About Intel Pentium 4 478-pin CPU
This motherboard provides a 478-pin surface mount, Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket,
referred to as the mPGA478B socket supports Intel Pentium 4 processor in the 478 Pin
package utilizes Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array (FC-PGA2) package technology.
The CPU that comes with the motherboard should have a cooling FAN attached to prevent
overheating. If this is not the case, then purchase a correct cooling FAN before you turn on
your system.
WARNING!
Be sure that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor’s
heatsink and CPU cooling FAN is working correctly, otherwise it may
cause the processor and motherboard overheat and damage, you may install
an auxiliary cooling FAN, if necessary.
To install a CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover. Locate the ZIF socket and
open it by first pulling the level sideways away from the socket then upward to a 90-degree
angle. Insert the CPU with the correct orientation as shown below. The notched corner
should point toward the end of the level. Because the CPU has a corner pin for two of the
four corners, the CPU will only fit in the orientation as shown.

When you put the CPU into the ZIF socket. No force require to insert of the CPU, then press
the level to Locate position slightly without any extra force.
2-4 Install Memory
This motherboard provides three 184-pin DDR DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES
(DIMM) sites for DDR memory expansion available from minimum memory size of 64MB to
maximum memory size of 3.0GB DDR SDRAM.

Generally, installing DDR SDRAM modules to your motherboard is very easy, you can refer
to figure 2-4 to see what a 184-pin DDR SDRAM module looks like.
Figure 2-4
When you install DIMM module fully into the DIMM socket the eject tab
should be locked into the DIMM module very firmly and fit into its
indention on both sides.
WARNING! For the DDR SDRAM CLOCK is set at 133MHz, use only DDR266- compliant
DDR Modules. When this motherboard operate at 133MHz, most system will
not even boot if non-compliant modules are used because of the strict
timing issues, if your DDR Modules are not DDR266-compliant, set the
SDRAM clock to 100MHz to ensure system stability.
NOTE!

2-7 Starting Up Your Computer
1. After all connection are made, close your computer case cover.
2. Be sure all the switch are off, and check that the power supply input voltage is set to
proper position, usually in-put voltage is 220V∼240V or 110V∼120V depending on your
country’s voltage used.
3. Connect the power supply cord into the power supply located on the back of your system
case according to your system user’s manual.
4. Turn on your peripheral as following order:
a. Your monitor.
b. Other external peripheral (Printer, Scanner, External Modem etc…)
c. Your system power. For ATX power supplies, you need to turn on the power supply
and press the ATX power switch on the front side of the case.
5. The power LED on the front panel of the system case will light. The LED on the monitor
may light up or switch between orange and green after the system is on. If it complies

Chapter 3
Introducing BIOS
The BIOS is a program located on a Flash Memory on the motherboard. This program is a
bridge between motherboard and operating system. When you start the computer, the BIOS
program gain control. The BIOS first operates an auto-diagnostic test called POST (power on
self test) for all the necessary hardware, it detects the entire hardware device and configures
the parameters of the hardware synchronization. Only when these tasks are completed done it
gives up control of the computer to operating system (OS). Since the BIOS is the only
channel for hardware and software to communicate, it is the key factor for system stability,
and in ensuring that your system performance as its best.
In the BIOS Setup main menu of Figure 3-1, you can see several options. We will explain
these options step by step in the following pages of this chapter, but let us first see a short
description of the function keys you may use here:
•
Press & lt; Esc & gt; to quit the BIOS Setup.
•
Press ↑ ↓ ← → (up, down, left, right) to choose, in the main menu, the option you want to
confirm or to modify.
•
Press & lt; F10 & gt; when you have completed the setup of BIOS parameters to save these
parameters and to exit the BIOS Setup menu.
•
Press Page Up/Page Down or +/– keys when you want to modify the BIOS parameters for
the active option.
3-1 Entering Setup
Power on the computer and by pressing & lt; Del & gt; immediately allows you to enter Setup.
If the message disappears before your respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the
system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the “RESET” button on the system
case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing & lt; Ctrl & gt; , & lt; Alt & gt; and & lt; Delete & gt; keys. If
you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an error message
will be displayed and you will again be asked to
Press & lt; F1 & gt; to continue, & lt; Ctrl-Alt-Esc & gt; or & lt; Del & gt; to enter Setup

system. The settings are: 2T and 3T.
RAS Precharge Time
If an insufficient number of cycles is allowed for the RAS to accumulate its charge before
DRAM refresh, the refresh may be incomplete and the DRAM may fail to retain date. Fast
gives faster performance; and Slow gives more stable performance. This field applies only
when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. The settings are: 2T and 3T.
CAS Latency
When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS latency depends
on the DRAM timing. The settings are: 2T and 2.5T.

Dual Port AGP VGA Card
As well attach the delivered Y-cables to the “green” port (former PS/2 Mouse port)
and into the “violet” port (former PS/2 Keyboard port) at the rear side of the
motherboard.
Connect the 1st and 2nd mouse to the Y-cable, which is also linked to the “green” PS/2
connector and the 1st and 2nd keyboard to the other Y-cable, which is also connected to
the “violet” port. The additional monitor MUST be attached otherwise windows will
not detect and enable the 2nd monitor. Make sure the additional keyboards and mice
work; they should affect the host console.
Start your PC. Windows will automatically detect the new AGP Video device as a
standard VGA-card. Please install first all drivers before installing “MagicTwin” of the
