1.2 Motherboard Layout

1-2 AB9 QuadGT

1.3 Choosing a Computer Chassis

• Choose a chassis big enough to install this motherboard.

• As some features for this motherboard are implemented by cabling connectors on the

motherboard to indicators and switches or buttons on the chassis, make sure your chassis
supports all the features required.

• If there is a possibility of adopting some more hard drives, make sure your chassis has
sufficient power and space for them.

• Most chassis have alternatives for I/O shield located at the rear panel. Make sure the I/O
shield of the chassis matches the I/O port configuration of this motherboard. You can find
an I/O shield specifically designed for this motherboard in its package.

1.4 Installing Motherboard

Most computer chassis have a base with many
mounting holes to allow the motherboard to be
securely attached, and at the same time, prevent
the system from short circuits. There are two
ways to attach the motherboard to the chassis
base: (1) with studs, or (2) with spacers.

Basically, the best way to attach the board is
with studs. Only if you are unable to do this
should you attach the board with spacers. Line up the holes on the board with the mounting
holes on the chassis. If the holes line up and there are screw holes, you can attach the board
with studs. If the holes line up and there are only slots, you can only attach with spacers. Take
the tip of the spacers and insert them into the slots. After doing this to all the slots, you can
slide the board into position aligned with slots. After the board has been positioned, check to
make sure everything is OK before putting the chassis back on.

※ Always power off the computer and unplug the AC power cord before adding or

removing any peripheral or component. Failing to so may cause severe damage
to your motherboard and/or peripherals. Plug in the AC power cord only after
you have carefully checked everything.

To install this motherboard:

1. Locate all the screw holes on the
motherboard and the chassis base.

2. Place all the studs or spacers needed on
the chassis base and have them tightened.

3. Face the motherboard’s I/O ports toward
the chassis’s rear panel.

4. Line up all the motherboard’s screw holes
with those studs or spacers on the chassis.

5. Install the motherboard with screws and
have them tightened.

※ To prevent shorting the PCB circuit,

please REMOVE the metal studs or
spacers if they are already fastened
on the chassis base and are without
mounting-holes on the motherboard
to align with.

Face the chassis’s rear panel.

1.5 Checking Jumper Settings

• For a 2-pin jumper, plug the
jumper cap on both pins will
make it CLOSE (SHORT).
Remove the jumper cap, or
plug it on either pin
(reserved for future use) will
leave it at OPEN position.

• For 3-pin jumper, pin 1~2 or pin 2~3 can be
shorted by plugging the jumper cap in.

SHORT OPEN

1.5.1 CMOS Memory Clearing Header and Backup Battery

The time to clear the CMOS memory occurs when (a)
the CMOS data becomes corrupted, (b) you forgot the
supervisor or user password preset in the BIOS menu,
(c) you are unable to boot-up the system because the
CPU ratio/clock was incorrectly set in the BIOS menu,
or (d) whenever there is modification on the CPU or
memory modules.

This header uses a jumper cap to clear the CMOS
memory and have it reconfigured to the default values
stored in BIOS.

• Pins 1 and 2 shorted
(Default): Normal

operation.

• Pins 2 and 3 shorted:
Clear CMOS memory.

To clear the CMOS memory and load in the default values:

1. Power off the system.

2. Set pin 2 and pin 3 shorted by the jumper cap. Wait for a few seconds. Set the jumper
cap back to its default settings --- pin 1 and pin 2 shorted.

3. Power on the system.

4. For incorrect CPU ratio/clock settings in the BIOS, press <Del> key to enter the BIOS
setup menu right after powering on system.

5. Set the CPU operating speed back to its default or an appropriate value.

6. Save and exit the BIOS setup menu.

※ Another easy way to clear the CMOS memory can be done by switching

“EZ-CCMOS1”, see the section of “Connecting Rear Panel I/O Devices” in this
manual for detail.

※ The C.C. POST Code appears when either the external “EZ-CCMOS1” switch or

the internal “CCMOS1” jumper is not set to its normal position.

CMOS Backup Battery:

An onboard battery saves the CMOS memory to keep the BIOS information stays on even after
disconnected your system with power source. Nevertheless, this backup battery exhausts after
some five years. Once the error message like “CMOS BATTERY HAS FAILED” or “CMOS
checksum error” displays on monitor, this backup battery is no longer functional and has to
be renewed.

Hardware Setup

To renew the backup battery:

1. Power off the system and disconnect with AC power source.

2. Remove the exhausted battery.

3. Insert a new CR2032 or equivalent battery. Pay attention to its polarity. The “+” side is its
positive polarity.

4. Connect AC power source and power on the system.

5. Enter the BIOS setup menu. Reconfigure the setup parameters if necessary.

CAUTION:

※ Danger of explosion may arise if the battery is incorrectly renewed.

※ Renew only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the battery

manufacturer.

※ Dispose of used batteries according to the battery manufacturer’s instructions.

1.5.2 Wake-up Header

These headers use a jumper cap to enable/disable the wake-up function.

• USB-PWR1:

Pin 1-2 shorted (Default): Disable wake-up function support at USB1 port.
Pin 2-3 shorted: Enable wake-up function support at USB1 port.

• USB-PWR2:

Pin 1-2 shorted (Default): Disable wake-up function support at USB2 port.
Pin 2-3 shorted: Enable wake-up function support at USB2 port

1.6 Connecting Chassis Components

1.6.1 ATX Power Connectors

These connectors provide the connection from an ATX power supply. As the plugs from the
power supply fit in only one orientation, find the correct one and push firmly down into these
connectors.

ATXPWR1: ATX 24-Pin Power Connector

The power supply with 20-pin or 24-pin cables can both be connected to this 24-pin connector.
Connect from pin-1 for either type. However, a 20-pin power supply may cause the system
unstable or even unbootable for the sake of insufficient electricity. A minimum power of 300W
or higher is recommended.

ATX12V1: ATX 12V 8-Pin Power Connector

This connector supplies power to CPU. The system will not start without connecting power to
this one.

ATX4P1: Auxiliary 12V Power Connector

This connector provides an auxiliary power source for devices added on PCI Express slots.

AB9 QuadGT 1-7

1.6.2 Front Panel Switches & Indicators Headers

This header is used for connecting switches and LED indicators on the chassis front panel.

Watch the power LED pin position and orientation. The mark “+” align to the pin in the figure
below stands for positive polarity for the LED connection. Please pay attention when connecting
these headers. A wrong orientation will only result in the LED not lighting, but a wrong
connection of the switches could cause system malfunction.

• HLED (Pin 1, 3):

Connects to the HDD LED cable of chassis front panel.

• RST (Pin 5, 7):

Connects to the Reset Switch cable of chassis front panel.

• SPKR (Pin 13, 15, 17, 19):

1.6.3 FAN Power Connectors

These connectors each provide power to the cooling fans installed in your system.

• CPUFAN1: CPU Fan Power Connector

• SYSFAN1: System Fan Power Connector

• AUXFAN1~4: Auxiliary Fan Power Connector

※ These fan connectors are not jumpers. DO NOT place jumper caps on these

connectors.

Hardware Setup

1.6.4 abit Silent OTES™ Technology

The abit Silent OTES™ Technology tremendously
condenses and dissipates the heatwave generated
together from both the NB chipset and the digital
PWM modules via a fin-type heatsink that is supposed
to be fanned outward by the air flowed from the CPU
cooler. DO NOT remove this heatsink.

Please take into consideration of the amount of high
temperature that could possibly generated from the
PWM modules if you intend to alter this design.

AB9 QuadGT 1-9

1.7 Installing Hardware

※ DO NOT scratch the motherboard when installing hardware. An accidental

scratch of a tiny surface-mount component may seriously damage the
motherboard.

※ In order to protect the contact pins, please pay attention to these notices:

1. A maximum 20 cycles of CPU installation is recommended.

2. Never touch the contact pins with fingers or any object.

3. Always put on the cap when the CPU is not in use.

1.7.1 CPU Socket 775

※ The installation procedures vary with different types of CPU fan-and-heatsink

assembly. The one shown here is served for demo only. For detailed
information on how to install the one you bought, refer to its installation
guidelines.

1. Place the board so that the lever-hook of

the socket is on your left side. Use your left
thumb and forefinger to hold the lever hook,
pull it away from the retention tab. Rotate
the lever to fully open position.

2. Use your right-thumb to raise the load

plate. Lift it up to fully open position.

1-10 AB9 QuadGT

3. Use your right thumb and forefinger to
grasp the CPU package. Be sure to grasp on
the edge of the substrate, and face the Pin-1
indicator toward the bottom-left side. Aim at
the socket and place the CPU package
vertical down into the socket.

4. Visually inspect if the CPU is seated well
into the socket. The alignment key must be
located in the notch of package.

Hardware Setup

5. Use your left hand to hold the load plate,

and use your right thumb to peel the cap off.

The cap plays an important role in
protecting contact pins. In order to
prevent bent pin, PUT ON the cap after
operation or testing.

6. Lower the plate onto the CPU package.

Engage the load lever while gently pressing
down the load plate.

8. Place the heatsink and fan assembly onto
the socket. Align the four fasteners toward
the four mounting holes on the motherboard.

9. Press each of the four fasteners down
into the mounting holes. Rotate the fastener
clock-wise to lock the heatsink and fan
assembly into position.

10. Attach the four-pin power plug from the
heatsink and fan assembly to the CPU FAN
connector.

7. Secure the lever with the hook under

retention tab.

※ A higher fan speed will be helpful for better airflow and heat-dissipation.

Nevertheless, stay alert to not touch any heatsink since a high temperature
generated by the working system is still possible.

AB9 QuadGT 1-11

1.7.2 DDR2 Memory Slots

• To reach the optimum performance in dual-channel configurations, install identical DDR2
DIMM pairs for each channel.

• Install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. To reach the optimum compatibility, obtain
memory modules from the same vendor.

※ Usually there is no hardware or BIOS setup required after adding or removing

memory modules, but you will have to clear the CMOS memory first if any
memory module related problem occurs.

To install system memory:

1. Power off the computer and unplug the
AC power cord before installing or
removing memory modules.

2. Locate the DIMM slot on the board.

3. Hold two edges of the DIMM module
carefully, keep away from touching its
connectors.

4. Align the notch key on the module with
the rib on the slot.

5. Firmly press the module into the slots until the ejector tabs at both sides of the slot
automatically snap into the mounting notch. Do not force the DIMM module in with extra
force as the DIMM module only fits in one direction.

6. To remove the DIMM modules, push the two ejector tabs on the slot outward
simultaneously, and then pull out the DIMM module.

※ Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer or

optional boards. Before starting these procedures, ensure that you are
discharged of static electricity by touching a grounded metal object briefly.

1.9 Onboard Indicators and Buttons

1.9.1 POST Code Displayer

This is an LED device to display the “POST” Code, the acronym for Power On Self Test. The
computer will execute the POST action whenever you power on the computer. The POST
process is controlled by the BIOS. It is used to detect the status of the computer’s main
components and peripherals. Each POST Code corresponds to different checkpoints that are
also defined by the BIOS in advance. For example, “memory presence test” is an important
checkpoint and its POST Code is “C1”. When the BIOS execute any POST item, it will write the
corresponding POST Code into the address 80h. If the POST passes, the BIOS will process the
next POST item and write the next POST Code into the address 80h. If the POST fails, we can
check the POST Code in address 80h to find out where the problem lies.

This LED device also displays the “POST” Code of AC2005, an “uGuru” chipset developed
exclusively by abit.

※ The decimal point lights up during the AC2005 POST action.

See Appendix for both AWARD and AC2005 POST Code definitions.

2. BIOS Setup

This motherboard provides a programmable EEPROM so that you can update the BIOS utility.
The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is a program that deals with the basic level of
communication between processor and peripherals. Use the BIOS Setup program only when
installing motherboard, reconfiguring system, or prompted to “Run Setup”. This chapter
explains the Setup Utility of BIOS utility.

After powering up the system, the BIOS message appears on the screen, the memory count
begins, and then the following message appears on the screen:

PRESS DEL TO ENTER SETUP

If this message disappears before you respond, restart the system by pressing <Ctrl> + <Alt>
+ <Del> keys, or by pressing the Reset button on the computer chassis. Only when these two
methods fail should you restart the system by powering it off and then back on.

After pressing <Del> key, the main menu screen appears.

seinem antistatischen Beutel herausnehmen.

• Halten Sie das Motherboard an seinen Rändern fest.

Kommen Sie nicht mit den darauf befindlichen Komponenten
in Kontakt.

• Berühren Sie keine Modulkontakte und IC-Chips.

• Legen Sie das Motherboard auf eine geerdete, antistatische

Oberfläche oder auf den antistatischen Beutel, in dem sich
das Motherboard befand.

Installieren des Motherboards im Gehäuse

Das Computergehäuse für dieses Motherboard sollte folgenden
Voraussetzungen entsprechen:

• Es eignet sich für den Formfaktor dieses Motherboards.

• Anzeigen und Schalter am Gehäuse werden von allen

Kabelanschlüssen auf dem Motherboard unterstützt.

• Es liefert genügend Strom und besitzt ausreichend Platz für

4.8 Latviski//Ātrās instalēšanas instrukcija

Šī “Ātrās instalēšanas instrukcija” ietver tikai pamata
norādes iekārtai, kas nepieciešamas, instalējot abit
mātesplati. Pilnīgākai darbībai nepieciešams iegūt
instrukcijas paplašināto variantu.

Piesardzības pasākumi iekārtas uzstādīšanā

• Vienmēr pirms plates pievienošanas vai jebkuru uzstādījumu

izmaiņām izslēdziet strāvas padevi un atvienojiet vadu no
maiņstrāvas barošanas avota.

• Pirms plates izņemšanas no antistatiskās somas nodrošiniet

sev pienācīgu zemējumu, uzliekot statiskās drošības aproci.

• Turiet plati aiz malām. Neskarieties pie tās sastāvdaļām.

• Neskarieties pie moduļa kontaktiem un integrētās shēmas

mikroshēmām.

• Novietojiet plati uz zemētas antistatiskas virsmas vai plates

antistatiskās somas.

Plates instalēšanas šasijā

Datora šasijai attiecībā uz šo mātesplati ir:

• Jābūt piemērotai šīs mātesplates formas faktoram.

• Jāatbalsta visi vadu savienojumi mātesplatē ar indikatoriem

un slēdžiem uz šasijas.

• Jāspēj nodrošināt pietiekamu strāvas jaudu un telpu visiem

pievadiem, kurus paredzēts instalēt.

• Tās ievadizvades ierīcei aizmugures panelī ir jāatbilst

ievadizvades portiem un paplašinājuma slotiem uz
mātesplates.

Lai instalētu mātesplati šasijā:

• Pavērsiet ievadizvades portu sānu pret šasijas aizmugures

daļu.

• Saskaņojiet skrūvju caurumus uz mātesplates un šasijas

pamatnes.

• Izvietojiet visus statņus vai starplikas, kas nepieciešami

šasijas pamatnei, un savelciet tos.

• Saskaņojiet visus skrūvju caurumus uz mātesplates ar uz

statņiem vai starplikām esošajiem.

• Savelciet visas skrūves caurumos.

Lai novērstu PCB shēmu, NOŅEMIET tos metāla statņus vai
starplikas, kas jau instalēti uz šasijas pamatnes un ir bez
montāžas caurumiem uz šīs mātesplates to saskaņošanai.

CMOS notīrīšanas tiltslēgs

Šis tiltslēgs tiek izmantots, lai notīrītu CMOS atmiņu BIOS
satura atiestatīšanas nolūkā. CMOS atmiņu var būt
nepieciešams notīrīt, ja BIOS uzstādījumi ir nepareizi un kavē
mātesplates darbību.

Lai notīrītu CMOS atmiņu, atvienojiet visus vadus no
mātesplates, savienojiet tiltslēga uzgali uz dažām sekundēm
uzstādījumā “Clear CMOS” (Notīrīt CMOS) un pēc tam
savienojiet tiltslēga uzgali atpakaļ uzstādījumā “Normal”
(Normāls). Pēc tam pievienojiet strāvu un atsāknējiet; BIOS
saturs tiks atiestatīts tā noklusējuma konfigur

ācijā.

4.11 Magyar//Gyorstelepítési útmutató

Ez a “Gyorstelepítési útmutató” csak azt az alapvető
hardver információt tartalmazza, amely az abit alaplap
telepítéséhez szükséges. Az előrehaladott üzemeltetéshez,
továbbra is a teljes útmutatót kell használnia.

Hardver beállítási óvintézkedések

• Minding kapcsolják ki a tápot ás áramtalanítsák a készüléket

az alaplap telepítése vagy a beállítások módosítása előtt.

• Mielőtt kivennék az alaplapot antisztatikus zacskójából,

biztonsági fémkarkötő segítségével földeljék le magukat.

• Az alaplapot csak széleinél fogják meg. Ne érintsék meg a

rajta lévő komponenseket.

• Ne érintsék meg a modul kontaktusait vagy az IC lapkákat

• Helyezzék az alaplapot leföldelt antisztatikus felületre vagy

arra az antisztatikus zacskóra amelyben csomagolva volt.

Az alaplap telepítése a házba

A számítógép háza a következő feltéteknek kell megfeleljen:

• Kell tudja fogadni ennek az alaplapnak az alakját.

• Támogatja az alaplap minden huzaljának, jelzőjének és

kapcsolójának a csatlakoztatását a házhoz.

• Képes kell legyen megfelelő tápot és teret biztosítani minden

telepíteni kívánt meghajtónak.

• A hátlapon lévő I/O idomszernek illeszkednie kell az alaplap

I/O portjaihoz és bővítő-helyeihez.

Az alaplap beszerelésére a házba a következőképpen kell
eljárni:

• Az I/O portos oldalt irányítsa a ház hátsó része felé.

• Azonosítsák be a csavarok helyét az alaplapon és a ház

alsó részén.

• Helyezzenek bele a ház alapjába minden érintkező-peceket

vagy távtartót és szorítsák meg őket.

• Állítsák síkba az alaplapon lévő minden csavarrést a házon

lévő érintkező-pecekekkel vagy távtartókkal.

• Szorítsanak meg minden csavart.

Annak érdekében, hogy megelőzzék a NYÁK rövidre
zárását, kérjük TÁVOLÍTSÁK el minden érintkező-peceket
vagy távtartót amennyiben ezek már rá vannak szerelve a
ház alapjára és ezen az alaplapon nincsenek olyan
illesztések amelyekkel síkba kellene hozni.

Törlő CMOS átkötés

Ennek az átkötésnek a szerepe a CMOS memória törlése,
amely lehetővé teszi a BIOS tartalmának reszettelését.
Szükség lehet a CMOS memória törlésére, amennyiben a BIOS
beállítások nem megfelelőek, és így lehetetlenné teszik az
alaplap használatát.

A CMOS memória törléséhez, bontsanak minden tápot az
alaplappal, csatlakoztassák az átkötés végét a „CMOS törlése”
ponthoz néhány másodpercre, majd csatlakoztassák vissza az
átkötést a „Normális” ponthoz. Miután ismét bekötik a tápot és
újraindítják a gépet, a BIOS visszaáll az alapértelmezett
konfigurációba.

5.2 Troubleshooting (How to Get Technical Support?)

5.2.1 Q & A

Q: Do I need to clear the CMOS before I use a new motherboard to assemble my

new computer system?

A: Yes, we highly recommend that you clear the CMOS before installing a new motherboard.

Please move the CMOS jumper from its default 1-2 position to 2-3 for a few seconds, and
then back. When you boot up your system for the first time, follow the instructions in the
user's manual to load the optimized defaults.

Q: If my system hangs when I update the BIOS or set the wrong CPU parameters,

what should I do?

A: Whenever you update the BIOS or if the system hangs due to wrong CPU parameters

setting, always clear CMOS jumper before booting up again.

Q: Why does the system fail to boot up again right after a mechanical power-off?

A: Please keep a 30-second interval between each mechanical power On/Off.

Q: Why does the system fail to boot up and nothing displays on the screen after I

did some over-clocking or non-standard settings inside the BIOS?

A: It should not cause hardware or permanent damage to motherboard when BIOS settings

were changed from default to over-clocking or non-standard status.

We suggest the following three troubleshooting methods to discharge CMOS data, recover
the hardware default status, and then making the motherboard work again. There is no
need to bother returning the motherboard to where you bought it from or go through an
RMA process.

Step 1. Switch off the power supply unit and then switch it on again after one minute. If

there is no power-switch on the power supply unit, disconnect its power cord for
one minute and then reconnect.

Press and hold the <Insert> key on the keyboard, and press the power-on button
to boot up system. If it works, release the <Insert> key and hit <Del> key to enter
the BIOS setup page to apply the correct settings.

If the situation remains the same, repeat the procedures in Step 1 three times, or
try Step 2.

Step 2. Switch off the power supply unit or disconnect the power cord. Open the chassis

cover. Locate the CCMOS jumper near the button battery. Change the jumper
position from default 1-2 to 2-3 for one minute to discharge the CMOS data, and
then put it back to default 1-2 position.

Close the chassis and switch on the power supply unit or plug in the power cord.
Press the power-on button to boot up system. If it works, hit <Del> key to enter
the BIOS setup page to do the correct settings.

If the situation remains the same, try Step 3.

Step 3. The same procedure as Step 2, but while discharging the CMOS data, pull out the

ATX power connectors from motherboard and remove the button battery during
CMOS discharge.

Appendix

AB9 QuadGT 5-5

Q: How to get a quick response for my request on technical support?
A: Please carry out a simple troubleshooting before sending “Technical Support Form”:

System boot-up fails after the system had been assembled:

Check the motherboard’s supporting specifications first to see if all the key components
attached in your system can meet.

To do so, you may:

• Remove all the unnecessary add-on devices (except the CPU, VGA card, DRAM, and
Power Supply), and then reboot.

• If the trouble still exists, try another VGA card of different brand/model to see if the
system will start.

• If the trouble still exists, try another memory module of different brand/model.

• If the trouble still exists, try another CPU and Power Supply.

If the system runs successfully, shut it down and start re-installing the interface cards and
devices that were previously installed in the system. Re-install and start the system one at a
time until the system won’t start.

Malfunction in the OS:

If the system hangs after resuming from S3 or some testing program, if the CPU cannot be
recognized properly, if the display resolution mixed, or if a certain program cannot be
executed, etc, you may:

• Upgrade the motherboard’s latest BIOS version.

• Upgrade the add-on device’s latest driver version.

• Check if there is any conflict in the “Control Panel/System Properties”.
