Chapter 2 Installation
This is a Mini-ITX form factor motherboard. Before you install the motherboard,
study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits into it.

Pre-installation Precautions
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components
or change any motherboard settings.
• Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard
components. Failure to do so may cause physical injuries and damages to motherboard
components.
• In order to avoid damage from static electricity to the motherboard’s components,
NEVER place your motherboard directly on a carpet. Also remember to use a grounded
wrist strap or touch a safety grounded object before you handle the components.
• Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.
• Whenever you uninstall any components, place them on a grounded anti-static pad or
in the bag that comes with the components.
• When placing screws to secure the motherboard to the chassis, please do not over-
tighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

 2.1 Installing the CPU

1. Before you insert the 1151-Pin CPU into the socket, please check if the PnP cap
is on the socket, if the CPU surface is unclean, or if there are any bent pins in the
socket. Do not force to insert the CPU into the socket if above situation is found.
Otherwise, the CPU will be seriously damaged.
2. Unplug all power cables before installing the CPU.

 2.3 Installing Memory Modules (DIMM)

This motherboard provides two 288-pin DDR4 (Double Data Rate 4) DIMM slots,
and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology.

1. For dual channel configuration, you always need to install identical (the same
brand, speed, size and chip-type) DDR4 DIMM pairs.
2. It is unable to activate Dual Channel Memory Technology with only one memory
module installed.
3. It is not allowed to install a DDR, DDR2 or DDR3 memory module into a DDR4
slot; otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged.

The DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent damage to
the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the slot at incorrect
orientation.

 2.4 Expansion Slots (PCI Express Slots)
There is 1 PCI Express slot on the motherboard.

Before installing an expansion card, please make sure that the power supply is
switched off or the power cord is unplugged. Please read the documentation of the
expansion card and make necessary hardware settings for the card before you start
the installation.

PCIe slot:

PCIE1 (PCIe 3.0 x16 slot) is used for PCI Express x16 lane width graphics cards.

2.5 Jumpers Setup

The illustration shows how jumpers are setup. When the jumper cap is placed on
the pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap is placed on the pins, the jumper
is “Open”. The illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1 and pin2 are “Short”
when a jumper cap is placed on these 2 pins.

Clear CMOS Jumper

(CLRMOS1)
(see p.6, No. 11) Default Clear CMOS

CLRMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. To clear and reset the system
parameters to default setup, please turn off the computer and unplug the power
cord from the power supply. After waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper cap to
short pin2 and pin3 on CLRMOS1 for 5 seconds. However, please do not clear the
CMOS right after you update the BIOS. If you need to clear the CMOS when you
just finish updating the BIOS, you must boot up the system first, and then shut it
down before you do the clear-CMOS action. Please be noted that the password,
date, time, and user default profile will be cleared only if the CMOS battery is
removed.

If you clear the CMOS, the case open may be detected. Please adjust the BIOS option
“Clear Status” to clear the record of previous chassis intrusion status.

 2.6 Onboard Headers and Connectors

Onboard headers and connectors are NOT jumpers. Do NOT place jumper caps over
these headers and connectors. Placing jumper caps over the headers and connectors
will cause permanent damage to the motherboard.

PWRBTN (Power Switch):

Connect to the power switch on the chassis front panel. You may configure the way to
turn off your system using the power switch.

RESET (Reset Switch):

Connect to the reset switch on the chassis front panel. Press the reset switch to restart
the computer if the computer freezes and fails to perform a normal restart.

PLED (System Power LED):

Connect to the power status indicator on the chassis front panel. The LED is on when
the system is operating. The LED keeps blinking when the system is in S1/S3 sleep
state. The LED is off when the system is in S4 sleep state or powered off (S5).

HDLED (Hard Drive Activity LED):

Connect to the hard drive activity LED on the chassis front panel. The LED is on
when the hard drive is reading or writing data.

The front panel design may differ by chassis. A front panel module mainly consists
of power switch, reset switch, power LED, hard drive activity LED, speaker and etc.
When connecting your chassis front panel module to this header, make sure the wire
assignments and the pin assignments are matched correctly.

3.3 Enabling USB Ports for Windows® 7 Installation

Intel® Braswell and Skylake has removed their support for the Enhanced Host
Controller Interface (EHCI – USB2.0) and only kept the eXtensible Host Controller
Interface (XHCI – USB3.0). Due to that fact that XHCI is not included in the
Windows 7 inbox drivers, users may find it difficult to install Windows 7 operating
system because the USB ports on their motherboard won’t work. In order for the
USB ports to function properly, please create a Windows® 7 installation disk with
the Intel® USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller (xHCI) drivers packed into the ISO
file.

Requirements
• A Windows® 7 installation disk or USB drive
• USB 3.0 drivers (included in the ASRock Support CD or website)
• A Windows® PC
• Win7 USB Patcher (included in the ASRock Support CD or website)

Scenarios
You have an ODD and PS/2 ports:
If there is an optical disc drive, PS/2 ports and PS/2 Keyboard or mouse on your computer,
you can skip the instructions below and go ahead to install Windows® 7 OS.

You only have an ODD (For Intel Skylake platforms only):

If there is an optical disc drive but no PS/2 ports on your computer, please enable the “PS/2
Simulator” option in UEFI SETUP UTILITY > Advanced > USB Configuration, which
allows the USB port to function as a PS/2 port, and then you can install the Windows® 7
OS. Please set PS/S Simulator back to disabled after the installation.

You’ve got nothing:

If you do not have an optical disc drive, please find another computer and follow the
instructions below to create a new ISO file with the “Win7 USB Patcher”. Then use the new
patched Windows® 7 installation USB drive to install Windows® 7 OS.
English

31
 Instructions
Step 1
Insert the Windows® 7 installation disk or USB drive to your system.

Step 2
Extract the tool (Win7 USB Patcher) and launch it.

Step 3
Select the “Win7 Folder” from Step1 by clicking the red circle as shown as the picture
below.

Step 4
Select the “USB Driver Folder” by clicking the red circle as shown as the picture below.
English

If you are using ASRock’s Support CD for the USB 3.0 driver, please select your CD-ROM.

32
 H110M-ITX/ac
H110M-ITX

Step 5
Select where to save the ISO file by pressing the red circle as shown as the picture below.

Step 6
If you want to burn the patched image to a CD, please check “Burn Image” and select “Target
Device to Burn”. If not, the patched ISO image will be exported to the destination selected
in Step5. Then Press “Start” to proceed.

Step 7
Now you are able to install Windows® 7 on Braswell or Skylake with the new burned CD.
Or please use the patched ISO image to make an OS USB drive to install the OS.
