3 Getting Started

This chapter provides information on how to install components to

the MI-965 SBC. Specifically, the installation of CPU, memory

modules, and operating system are explained.

3.1 Installing the CPU

The MI-965 Supports the Intel® Core™ 2 Duo, Celeron® M

processors in the Micro-FCPGA package using the Socket P

interface. To install the CPU on the main board, follow the

instructions below.

1. Locate the CPU socket on the MI-965. Fully turn the

CPU locking screw counter-clockwise as far as it will go.

CAUTION:

Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system.

Always make sure the cooling fan is functioning properly to

protect the CPU from overheating.

Make sure that you apply an even layer of thermal paste (or

thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to allow heat

dissipation.

Before replacing the CPU, always turn off the power supply or

unplug the power supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet

to ensure the safety of CPU.
