provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installations. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television equipment reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
-Move the equipment away from the receiver
-Plug the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions
You are cautioned that any change or modifications to the equipment not expressly approve by the party responsible for compliance could void Your authority to operate such equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subjected to the following two conditions 1) this device may not cause harmful interference and 2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Suspend to RAM Installation

Suspend To RAM Installation
A.1 Introduce STR function:
Suspend-to-RAM (STR) is a W indows 98 ACPI sleep mode function. When recovering from STR (S3) sleep
mode, the system is able, in just a few seconds, to retrieve the last “state” of the system before it went to sleep and recover to that state. The “state” is stored in memory (RAM) before the system goes to sleep. During STR sleep mode, your system uses only enough energy to maintain critical information and system functions, primarily the system state and the ability to recognize various “wake up” triggers or signals, respectively.

A.2 STR function Installation

Step 1:
(If you want to use STR Function, please set jumper JP7 Closed.)
1
Pin No. Definition
Open Normal (Default) Close STR Enabled
Step 2:
Power on the computer and as soon as memory counting starts, press <Del>. You will enter BIOS Setup. Select the item “POWER MANAGEMENT SETUP”, then select ACPI Sleep Type : S3 / STR”. Remember to save the settings by pressing "ESC" and choose the “SAVE & EXIT SETUP” option.
Congratulation! You have completed the installation and now can use the STR function.

A.3 How to put your system into STR mode?

There are two ways to accomplish this:
1. Choose the “Stand by” item in the “Shut Down Windows” area. A. Press the “Start” button and then select “Shut Down”
17
B. Choose the “Stand by” item and press “OK”
2. Define the system ”power on” button to initiate STR sleep mode:
A. Double click “My Computer” and then “Control Panel”
Suspend to RAM Installation
B. Double click the “ Power Management” item.
18
7ZX-1 Motherboard
C. Select the “Advanced” tab and “Standby” mode in Power Buttons.
D. Restart your computer to complete setup. Now when you want to enter STR sleep mode, just momentarily press the “Power on”
button.

A.4 How to r ecover from the STR sleep mode?

There are five ways to “wake up” the system:
1. Press the “Power On” button.
2. Use the “Resume by Alarm” function.
3. Use the “Modem Ring On” function.
4. Use the “Wake On LAN” function.
5. Use the “USB Device Wake Up” function.

A.5 Notices:

1. In order for STR to function properly, several hardware and software requirements must be satisfied:
A. Your ATX power supply must comply with the ATX 2.01 specification (provide more than 720 mA 5V
Stand-By current).
B. Your SDRAM must be PC-100 / PC-133 compliant.
2. Jumper JP8 is provided to connect to the STR LED in your system chassis. [Your chassis may not provide
this feature.] The STR LED will be illuminated when your system is in STR sleep mode.

Memory Installation

The motherboard has 3 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM Slot .The DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the two notch. Memory size can vary between sockets.
Install memory in any combination table:

BIOS Setup

BIOS Setup is an overview of the BIOS Setup Program. The program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This type of information is stored in battery-backed CMOS RAM so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off.

ENTERING SETUP

Power ON the computer and press <Del> immediately will allow you to enter Setup. If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET" bottom on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously press <Ctrl> <Alt> <Del> keys.

The category identifies the types of hard disk from drive C to F that has been installed in the computer. There are two types: auto type, and user definable type. User type is user-definable; Auto type which will automatically detect HDD type.
Note that the specifications of your drive must match with the drive table. The hard disk will not work properly if you enter improper information for this category.
If you select User Type, related information will be asked to enter to the following items. Enter the information directly from the keyboard and press <Enter>. Such information should be provided in the documentation

The category identifies the types of floppy disk drive A or drive B that has been installed in the computer.
None No floppy drive installed 360K, 5.25 in. 5.25 inch PC-type standard drive; 360K byte capacity.
1.2M, 5.25 in. 5.25 inch AT-type high-density drive; 1.2M byte capacity (3.5 inch when 3 Mode is Enabled).

•••• Boot Sector Virus Protection
If it is set to enable, the category will flash on the screen when there is any attempt to write to the boot sector or partition table of the hard disk drive. The system will halt and the following error message will appear in the mean time. You can run anti-virus program to locate the problem.
Enabled Activate automatically when the system boots up causing a
warning message to appear when anything attempts to access the boot sector or hard disk partition table
Disabled No warning message to appear when anything attempts to
access the boot sector or hard disk partition table. (Default
Value)
BIOS Setup
•••• Memory
The category is display-only which is determined by POST (Power On Self Test) of the BIOS.
Base Memory
The POST of the BIOS will determine the amount of base (or conventional) memory installed in the system.
The value of the base memory is typically 512 K for systems with 512 K memory installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for systems with 640 K or more memory installed on the motherboard.
Extended Memory
The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present during the POST. This is the amount of memory located above 1 MB in the CPU's memory address map.
Other Memory
This refers to the memory located in the 640 K to 1024 K address space. This is memory that can be used for different applications.
DOS uses this area to load device drivers to keep as much base memory free for application programs. Most use for this area is Shadow RAM
