This chapter describes jumpers, connectors and hardware devices of this motherboard.
Note: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drives, expansion boards,
and other components. Always observe the following precautions before you install a system
component.
1. Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until you are ready to install it.
2. Wear a wrist ground strap and attach it to a metal part of the system unit before handling a
component. If a wrist strap is not available, maintain contact with the system unit throughout
any procedures requiring ESD protection.

When you read this online manual and start to assemble your computer system, you may find some of functions are called
“Manufacturer Upgrade Optional”, and some are called “User Upgrade Optional”. Though all AOpen motherboards include many
amazing and powerful features, in some situations, these powerful features are not used to every user. Hence, we changed
some key features as “Manufacturer Upgrade Optional” for you to choose. Some optional functions that can be upgraded by
users, we call them “User Upgrade Optional”. As for those optional functions that can’t be upgraded by ourselves, we call them
“Manufacturer Upgrade Optional”. If needed, you can contact our local distributors or resellers for purchasing “User Upgrade
Optional” components, and again you can visit AOpen official web site: http://english.aopen.com.tw/

With AMD platform substantially keeps increasing the speed of its CPU, it inevitably led to the
annoying problem of high CPU operation temperature at the same time. In order to prevent
accidental failure of CPU fan, which could cause the burning
down of the Athlon 64 CPU, we, AOpen, have meticulously
developed a new technology, named, O.H.P. (Overheat
Protection) Technology to protect them. Thanks to the
intelligent monitoring design of AOpen O.H.P. technology,
user can now finally set their mind at ease even when fan
failed to work without fearing the possible damage of CPU.
Under the circumstances that CPU fan is running properly,
Athlon 64 temperature should be way below the highest temperature limit of 97. However, if CPU fan accidentally
becomes malfunction or improperly installed, the CPU
temperature would rocket abruptly, and you may find your
system hang up or crying over the smoking CPU if you
haven’t installed AOpen O.H.P. previously. With AOpen O.H.P.
technology applied, the specific thermal detection pins on
Athlon 64 CPU would sense voltage difference when
processor is overheated with fan failed, and the overheat
protection system would immediately send out a signal to abort your system by cutting CPU electricity before any damage is
done. Unlike other manufacturers who use BIOS or software to control the power supply of CPU, AOpen O.H.P. Technology is
purely hardware-controlled the minute after system boot-up, and occupies no system resource. We are pleasant to phase in this
practical function on all AOpen AMD series motherboards to protect customer’s valuable hardware and personal data.

Over Current Protection has been popularly implemented on ATX 3.3V/5V/12V switching power supply for a while. However,
new generation CPU is able to use regulator of different voltages to transfer 12V to CPU voltage (for example, to 2.0V). This
motherboard is with switching regulator onboard that supports CPU over-current protection, and it applies to 3.3V/5V/12V power
supply for providing full line over-current protection.
Note: Although we have implemented protection circuit try to prevent any human operating
mistake, there is still certain risk that CPU, memory, HDD, add-on cards installed on this
motherboard may be damaged because of component failure, human operating error or unknown
nature reason. AOpen cannot guaranty the protection circuit will always work perfectly.

This motherboard comes with a 20-pin and 4-pin ATX power connector. Make sure you plug in the right direction. We strongly
recommend you to connect the 4-pin 12V ATX connector before connecting the 20-pin ATX power connector and use standard
power supply.

A traditional ATX system should remain at power off stage when AC power resumes from power failure. This design is
inconvenient for a network server or workstation, without an UPS, that needs to keep power-on. This motherboard implements
an AC Power Auto Recovery function to solve this problem.
