Preface Preface About This Manual This manual is written for system integrators, PC technicians and knowledgeable PC users. It provides information for the installation and use of the P8SCT motherboard. The P8SCT 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. It also supports Intel Celeron Processor at a bus speed of 533MHz. The Pentium 4 Processor in the 775-Land Grid Array Pack- age is housed in a Flip-Chip Land Grid Array (FC-LGA4) package that interfaces with the motherboard via an LGA775 socket. The package consists of a processor core mounted on a substrate land-carrier.

An integrated heat spreader (IHS) is at- tached 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 specifi cations pages on our web site (http://www.supermicro. com/Products/motherboard) for updates on supported processors. This product is intended to be professionally installed. Manual Organization Chapter 1 includes a checklist of what should be included in your mainboard box, describes the features, specifi cations and performance of the P8SCT 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 to connect the fl oppy and hard disk drives, the IDE interfaces, the parallel 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 troubleshoot- ing procedures for the video, the memory and the setup confi guration stored in CMOS. For quick reference, a general FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) section is provided. Instructions are also included for contacting technical support.

In ad- dition, you can visit our web site at www.supermicro.com/techsupport.htm for more detailed information. Chapter 4 includes an introduction to BIOS and provides detailed information on running the CMOS Setup utility. Appendix A provides BIOS POST Messages. Appendix B lists BIOS POST Codes. Appendix C lists Software Drivers and the OS Installation Instructions. iii
