knowledgeable PC users.  It provides information for the installation and use

of the 

 P8SC8/P8SCi motherboard.  The P8SC8/P8SCi supports

single Intel Pentium

®

 4 Processor (the Prescott Processor) in the 775-Land

Grid Array Package (LGA 775)  at a system bus speed of 800 MHz.  The

Pentium 4 Processor in the 775-Land Grid Array Package is housed in a

Flip-Chip Land Grid Array (FC-LGA4) package that interfaces with the moth-

erboard via an LGA775 socket. The package consists of a processor core

mounted on a substrate land-carrier.  An integrated heat spreader (IHS) is

attached to the package substrate and core and serves as the contacting

surface for processor component thermal solutions, such as a heatsink.

Please refer to the motherboard specifications pages on our web site (http:/

/www.supermicro.com/Product_page/product-m.htm) for updates on sup-

ported processors.  This product is intended to be professionally installed.

Chapter 1 includes a checklist of what should be included in your

mainboard box, describes the features, specifications and performance of

the P8SC8/P8SCi mainboard and provides detailed information about the

chipset.

Chapter 2 begins with instructions on handling static-sensitive devices.

Read this chapter when installing the processor and DDR2 memory modules

and when mounting the mainboard in the chassis.  Also refer to this chapter

and serial ports, the mouse and keyboard and the twisted wires for the

power supply, the reset button, the keylock/power LED and the speaker.

If you encounter any problems, see Chapter 3, which describes trouble-

shooting procedures for the video, the memory and the setup configuration

stored in CMOS.  For quick reference, a general FAQ (Frequently Asked
