Mainboard Components Use the diagram below to identify the major components on the mainboard. Note: Any jumpers on your mainboard not appearing in the illustration above are for testing only.
I/O Ports The illustration below shows a side view of the built-in I/O ports on the mainboard. (shared with READ1) PS/2 Mouse PS/2 Keyboard LPT1 COM1 VGA LAN Port (optional) USB Ports (optional) Use the upper PS/2 port to connect a PS/2 pointing device. Use the lower PS/2 port to connect a PS/2 keyboard. Use LPT1 to connect printers or other parallel communications devices. Use the COM port to connect serial devices such as mice or fax/modems. COM1 is identified by the system as COM1.
Installing the Processor This mainboard has a Socket 478 processor socket. When choosing a processor, consider the performance requirements of the system. Performance is based on the processor design, the clock speed and system bus frequency of the processor, and the quantity of internal cache memory and external cache memory. CPU Installation Procedure Follow these instructions to install the CPU: Socket-478 Pin 1 1 CPUFAN 1. Unhook the locking lever of the CPU socket.
Installing Memory Modules This mainboard accommodates two 184-pin 2.5V unbuffered Double Data Rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM) Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) sockets, and supports up to 2.0 GB of 333 MHz DDR SDRAM. DDR SDRAM is a type of SDRAM that supports data transfers on both edges of each clock cycle (the rising and falling edges), effectively doubling the memory chip’s data throughput. DDR DIMMs can synchronously work with 100 MHz or 133 MHz memory bus. DDR SDRAM provides 1.6 GB/s or 2.
DIMM module in the correct direction. Match the cutout on the DIMM module with the notch on the DIMM socket. 3. Install the DIMM module into the socket and press it firmly down until it is seated correctly. The socket latches are levered upwards and latch on to the edges of the DIMM. 4. Install any remaining DIMM modules. Jumper Settings Using a jumper cap to connect two pins is SHORT, removing it from these pins, OPEN.
Install the Mainboard Install the mainboard in a system chassis (case). The board is a Micro ATX size mainboard. You can install this mainboard in an ATX case. Ensure your case has an I/O cover plate that matches the ports on this mainboard. Install the mainboard in a case. Follow the instructions provided by the case manufacturer using the hardware and internal mounting points on the chassis.

Chapter 3 BIOS Setup Utility Introduction The BIOS Setup Utility records settings and information about your computer such as the date and time, the kind of hardware installed, and various configuration settings. Your computer uses this information to initialize all the components when booting up and functions as the basis for coordination between system components. If the Setup Utility configuration is incorrect, it may cause the system to malfunction. It can even stop your computer from booting properly.
Running the Setup Utility Each time your computer starts, before the operating system loads, a message appears on the screen that prompts you to “Hit if you want to run SETUP”. When you see this message, press the Delete key and the Main menu page of the Setup Utility appears on your monitor. AMIBIOS SIMPLE SETUP UTILITY – VERSION 1.21.13 (C) 2000 American Megatrends, Inc.
Standard CMOS Setup Page Use this page to set basic information such as the date, the time, the IDE devices, and the diskette drives. If you press the F3 key, the system will automatically detect and configure the hard disks on the IDE channels. AMIBIOS SETUP – STANDARD CMOS SETUP (C) 2000 American Megatrends, Inc.
Floppy Drive A Floppy Drive B Use these items to set the size and capacity of the floppy diskette drive(s) installed in the system. Advanced Setup Page This page sets up more advanced information in the system. Be more carful with this page. Making changes can affect the operation of your computer.

Enable this item if any IDE hard disks support the S.M.A.R.T. (SelfMonitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) feature. This item determines if the Num Lock key is active or inactive at system startup time.
System BIOS Cacheable Share Memory Size Graphic Win Size DRAM CAS# Latency Timing Setting Mode MA 1T/2T Select Advanced Read Prefetch Hyper Threading Function If you enable this item, a segment of the system BIOS will be copied to main memory for faster execution. This item lets you allocate a portion of the main memory for the onboard VGA display application with five options of 4/8/16/32/64 MB. This item defines the size of aperture if you use a graphic adapter.
Auto Detect DIMM/PCI Clk Spread Spectrum DOS Flat Mode When this item is enabled, BIOS will disable the clock signal of free DIMM/PCI slots. If you enable spread spectrum, it can significantly reduce the EMI(ElectroMagnetic Interference) generated by the system. This item enables BIOS entering the DOS protected mode without other software supporting under the DOS operating system. We recommend you to leave this item at the default value.
Power Management Suspend Time Out Hard Disk Time Out Resume On RTC Alarm Date / Hour / Minute / Second LAN/Ring Power On KeyBoard Power On Use this item to select a power management scheme. Both APM and ACPI are supported. This sets the timeout for Suspend mode in minutes. If the time selected passes without any system activity, the computer will enter power-saving Suspend mode. This sets the timeout to power down the hard disk drive, if the time selected passes without any hard disk activity.
