EVGA P55 Micro Motherboard Before Y ou Begin… Parts NOT in the Kit This kit contains all the hardw are necessary to i nstall and connect your new EVGA P55 Micro Mothe rboard. Howe ver, it does not contain the following items that must be pu rchased separate ly to make the mo therboard functi onal.
EVGA P55 Micro Motherboard Motherboard Spe cifications Size ATX form factor of 9.6 inch x 9.6 inch Processor support Intel Socket 1156 C PU’s Operating systems: Supports Windows X P 32bi.
Six (6) onboard Serial A TA II 300MBps data trans fer rate Six Serial ATA II con nectors with suppo rt for RA ID 0, RAID 1, RA ID 10, and RAID 5 Supports hot plug and NC Q (Native C ommand Queuing.
Hardware Inst allation This section will g uide you through the installation o f the motherb oard. The topics covered in thi s sectio n are: Preparing the motherboa rd Installing the CPU I.
Preparing the Mo therboard Installing the CPU Be very careful whe n handli ng the CPU. Hold the processor only by the ed ges and do not touch the contac ts on the mothe rboard or CPU. Any physical da mage to the motherbard pins w ill void the war ranty.
Align the notche s in the proce ssor with the notches on the socket. Lower the proces sor straight dow n into the socket without tilti ng or sliding it into the socket Note: Make sure the CPU is fully seated and level. Lower the load plate s o it is resting on the CPU.
Installing System Memory (DIM Ms) Your new motherboa rd has four 240 -pin slots f or DDR3 memory. These slots support 1G B , 2G B, 4GB DDR3 techn ologies . There m ust be at least one memory bank populated t o ensure no rmal operation. U se the following the recommendations for installing me mory.
Installing the I/O Shield The motherboard kit co mes w ith an I/O shield that is u sed to block radi o frequency transmi ssions, pro tects internal compo nents from dus t and foreign obj ects, and prom otes correc t airflow within the c hassis. Before installing the mo therboard, in stall the I/O shield from the inside of the chassis.
Securing the Mot herboard into a System Case Most system case s have a base with mounting studs o r spacers to allow the motherboard to be secu red to the chassis and he lp to preve nt short circuits.
24 -pin ATX Pow er (PW 1) PW1 is the main power supply connec tor located along the edge of the board next to the DIMM slots. Make sure that the power suppl y cable and pins are properly aligned wit h the connec tor on the mother board. Firmly plug the power supply cable into the c onnector and make sure i t is secure .
primary storage devices. The current Serial ATA II interfac e allows up to 300MB/s data trans fer rate. There are six (6) internal serial A TA connectors on thi s motherboard. These connections are de signed to be angled to not inter fere wi th any expansions cards.
Connecting Internal Headers Front Panel Hea der The front panel he ader on this motherb oard is one con nector used to con nect the following fou r cables. (see Table 2 for pin definitions) : PWRLED Attach the front pane l power LED cable to these two pins of th e connector.
IEEE1394a (Firewire) Th is motherboar d has one IEE E 1394a onboard heade r. Alternatively, y ou can also connect this to your system case (if a pplicable ). 1. Secure the bracket to e ither the front or rear panel of the system ca se (not all system cases are equippe d with the front panel op tion).
USB Headers This motherboard c ontains seven (6) US B 2.0 ports that are exposed on the rear panel of the chassis (Figure 2). The mothe rboard also contain s three (2) 10 - pin internal heade r connectors onboard that can be u sed to connect an optional e xternal bracke t containing up to six (4) USB 2.
Audio The audio connec tor supports HD audio standard an d provides two kinds of audio output choice s: the Front Audio, the Rear Audio. The front Au dio supports re-tasking function.
Expansion Slots PCI Slots The PCI slot suppo rts many e xpansion cards suc h as a LAN card, USB car d, SCSI card and other ca rds that comply with PCI spec ifications.
Onboard Button s These onboard butt ons include RESE T, POWE R and Clear CMOS. These functions allow you t o easily reset the system, tu rn on/off the sy stem, or cl ear the CMOS. Clear CMOS Butto n The motherboard u ses the CMOS RAM to store all the set parame ters.
Post Port Debug LED and LED Status Indicators Post Port Debug LED Provides two-digit P OST code s to show why the sy stem may be failing to boot . It is useful during tr oubleshooting situations. This Debu g LED will also displa y current CPU temperat ures after t he system has fully boo ted into the Operati ng System.
