ON: 100MHz (supports FSB 200MHz CPU, default)

OFF ON

OFF: Auto (133/166/200MHz , supports FSB 266/333/

OFF

400MHz CPU)

If you are using a FSB 266MHz/333MHz or 400MHz CPU, please set the jumper to OFF (133/166/200MHz).

FDD (Floppy Disk Drive Connector)

The FDD connector is able to connect a single floppy disk drive via a FDD cable. Usually one edge of the FDD cable is marked in red, please attach this marked edge to position 1 on the connector.

342

IDE1 / IDE2 (IDE1 and IDE2 Connector)

The IDE connector is able to connect two IDE devices via an IDE cable and requires checking of the IDE jumper setting. It is recommended that the hard drive be connected to the first IDE connector while the optical drive be connected to the second IDE connector.

1 39

CPU_FAN (CPU Fan Power Connector); SYS_FAN (System Fan Power Connector)

The CPU_Fan power connector provides the largest amount of power to the CPU fan at 600mA. You can connect the casing fan to the SYS_FAN connector to enhance system cooling.
