2. Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for the
Intel® Core™2 DUO, Celeron® D and Conroe-L processors.
• Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the PnP cap is on
the socket and the socket contacts are not bent. Contact your retailer
immediately if the PnP cap is missing, or if you see any damage to the PnP
cap/socket contacts/motherboard components. ASUS will shoulder the cost
of repair only if the damage is shipment/transit-related.
• Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process Return
Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes
with the cap on the LGA775 socket.
• The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket contacts
resulting from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/
incorrect removal of the PnP cap.
System requirements
Before using EIST, check your system if it meets the following requirements:
• Intel® Yonah® Mobile processor with EIST support
• BIOS file with EIST support
• Operating system with EIST support (Windows® XP SP2/Windows® Server 2003
SP1/Linux 2.6 kernel or later versions)

8. On the Power schemes section, click , then select any option except Home/Office
Desktop or Always On.
9. Click Apply, then click OK.
10. Close the Display Properties window.
After you adjust the power scheme, the CPU
internal frequency slightly decreases when the
CPU loading is low.
The screen displays and procedures
may vary depending on the operating
system.
Before installing the CPU, make sure that the cam box is facing towards you
and the load lever is on your left.
2. Press the load lever with your thumb (A), then move it to the left (B) until it is
released from the retention tab.

To prevent damage to the socket pins, do not remove the PnP cap unless you
are installing a CPU.

3. Lift the load lever in the direction of
the arrow to a 135º angle.

Alignment key
The CPU fits in only one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU into the
socket to prevent bending the connectors on the socket and damaging the CPU!
The motherboard supports Intel® LGA775 processors with the Intel® Enhanced
Memory 64 Technology (EM64T), Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology
(EIST), and Hyper-Threading Technology. Refer to the Appendix for more
information on these CPU features.

3. System memory
The motherboard comes with two Double Data Rate (DDR) Dual Inline Memory
Modules (DIMM) sockets.
The following figure illustrates the location of the DDR DIMM sockets:
DIMM1
DIMM2

3.2 Installing a DIMM
Unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other
system components. Failure to do so can cause severe damage to both the
motherboard and the components.
A DDR DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one direction. DO NOT
force a DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the DIMM.
Support the DIMM lightly with your fingers when pressing the retaining clips.
The DIMM might get damaged when it flips out with extra force.
ASUS IPILP-AR
4. Expansion slots
The motherboard has one PCI slot.
To install and configure an expansion card:
1. Turn on the system and change the necessary BIOS settings, if any.
2. Assign an IRQ to the card. Refer to the tables below.
3. Install the drivers and/or software applications for the expansion card according
to the card documentation.
ASUS IPILP-AR
5. Jumper
1. Clear RTC RAM (3-pin CLRTC)
This jumper allows you to clear the Real Time Clock (RTC) RAM in
CMOS. You can clear the CMOS memory of date, time, and system setup
parameters by erasing the CMOS RTC RAM data. The onboard button
cell battery powers the RAM data in CMOS, which include system setup
information such as system passwords.
To erase the RTC RAM:
Except when clearing the RTC RAM, never remove the cap from the
default position. Removing the cap will cause system boot failure!

2. Clear password (3-pin CLPWD)
This jumper allows you to clear the password if you forgot your password.
To erase the password:
1. Turn OFF the computer and unplug the power cord.
2. Move the jumper cap from pins 2-3 (Normal) to pins 1-2 (Clear
Password).
3. Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer.

10. USB 2.0 ports 1 and 2, 3 and 4. These two 4-pin Universal Serial Bus (USB)
ports are available for connecting USB 2.0 devices.
11. VGA Graphic Adapter (VGA) port. This 15-pin port is for a VGA monitor or
other VGA-compatible devices.
12. Coaxial S/PDIF Out port. This port connects an external audio output device
via a coaxial S/PDIF cable.
13. PS/2 keyboard port (purple). This port is for a PS/2 keyboard.

6.2 Internal connectors
This section describes and illustrates the internal connectors on the motherboard.
1. ATX Micro-Fit power connectors (24-pin ATXPWR1)
These connectors are for an ATX Micro-Fit power supply. The plugs from the
power supply are designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the
proper orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit.
• Make sure that your ATX 12V power supply can provide 8A on the +12V
lead and at least 1A on the +5-volt standby lead (+5VSB). The minimum
recommended wattage is 108W(only) for a fully configured system. The
system can become unstable and might experience difficulty powering up if
the power supply is inadequate.
• You must install a PSU with a higher power rating if you intend to install
additional devices.

5. System fan connectors (3-pin SYS_FAN1)
The fan connectors support cooling fans of 350 mA ~ 740 mA (8.88 W max.)
or a total of 1 A~2.22 A (26.64 W max.) at +12 V. Connect the fan cable to the
fan connector on the motherboard, making sure that the black wire of each
cable matches the ground pin of the connector.
Do not forget to connect the fan cables to the fan connectors. Insufficient air
flow within the system can damage the motherboard components. These are
not jumpers! DO NOT place jumper caps on the fan connectors!
