What is HDCP?

HDCP stands for High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection, a speciﬁ cation developed by Intel

for protecting digital entertainment content that uses the DVI interface. HDCP is a copy protection scheme to eliminate the possibility of intercepting digital data midstream between the video source, or transmitter - such as a computer, DVD player or set-top box and the digital display, or receiver - such as a monitor, television or projector. In other words, HDCP speciﬁ cation is designed to protect the integrity of content as it is being transmitted.

Products compatible with the HDCP scheme such as DVD players, satellite and cable HDTV set-top-boxes, as well as few entertainment PCs requires a secure connection to a compliant display. Due to the increase in manufacturers employing HDCP in their equipment, it is highly recommended that the HDTV or LCD monitor you purchase is compatible.

VORSICHT!

1. Die Einstellung der “Hyper-Threading Technology”, ﬁ nden Sie auf Seite 60 des auf der Support-CD enthaltenen Benutzerhandbuches beschrieben.

2. Dieses Motherboard unterstützt Dual-Kanal-Speichertechnologie. Vor Implementierung der Dual-Kanal-Speichertechnologie müssen Sie die Installationsanleitung für die Speichermodule auf Seite 16 zwecks

richtiger Installation gelesen haben.

3. DDR3-Frequenzoptionen können je nach Prozessor variieren. Nur CPU der K-Serie kann DDR3-Übertaktung auf 2133 und 1866 unterstützen.

4. Durch Betriebssystem-Einschränkungen kann die tatsächliche Speichergröße weniger als 4 GB betragen, da unter Windows etwas Speicher zur Nutzung durch das System reserviert wird. Unter Windows® OS mit 64-Bit-CPU besteht diese Einschränkung nicht.

5. Die Maximalspeichergröße ist von den Chipshändler deﬁ niert und umge- tauscht. Bitte überprüfen Sie Intel

6. Sie können nur die Nutzung von zwei von drei Bildschirmen auswählen. Die D-Sub-, DVI-D- und HDMI-Bildschirme können nicht gleichzeitig aktiviert werden. Zudem kann der DVI-D-Port mit DVI-zu-HDMI-Adapter dieselben Funktionen wie der HDMI-Port unterstützen.

7. xvYCC und Deep Color werden nur unter Windows stützt. Der Deep Color-Modus wird nur aktiviert, wenn der Bildschirm 12bpc in EDID unterstützt. HBR wird unter Windows® 7 64 Bit / 7 / VistaTM 64 Bit / Vista

unterstützt.

8. Der Mikrofoneingang dieses Motherboards unterstützt Stereo- und MonoModi. Der Audioausgang dieses Motherboards unterstützt 2-Kanal-, 4-Kanal-, 6-Kanal- und 8-Kanal-Modi. Stellen Sie die richtige Verbindung anhand der Tabelle auf Seite 3 her.

9. ASRock Extreme Tuning Utility (AXTU) ist ein Alles-in-einemWerkzeug zur Feineinstellung verschiedener Systemfunktionen an einer benutzerfreundlichen Schnittstelle; diese beinhaltet HardwareÜberwachung, Lüftersteuerung, Übertaktung, OC DNA und IES. Über die Hardware-Überwachung können Sie die Hauptsystemdaten einsehen. Die Lüftersteuerung zeigt Ihnen zur Anpassung Lüftergeschwindigkeit und Temperatur an. Bei der Übertaktung können Sie die CPU-Frequenz zur Erzielung optimaler Systemleistung übertakten. OC DNA ermöglicht

Ihnen die Speicherung Ihrer OC-Einstellungen als Proﬁ l, welches Sie mit Freunden teilen können. Ihre Freunde können das OC-Proﬁ l dann

in ihrem System laden und so die gleichen OC-Einstellungen erzielen. Per IES (Intelligent Energy Saver) kann der Spannungsregulator bei Inaktivität der CPU-Kerne die Anzahl an Ausgangsphasen zur Steigerung

der Efﬁ zienz reduzieren – ohne die Rechenleistung zu beeinträchtigen.

10. ASRock Instant Flash ist ein im Flash-ROM eingebettetes BIOS-FlashProgramm. Mithilfe dieses praktischen BIOS-Aktualisierungswerkzeugs können Sie das System-BIOS aktualisieren, ohne dafür zuerst Betriebssysteme wie MS-DOS oder Windows® aufrufen zu müssen. Mit diesem Programm bekommen Sie durch Drücken der <F6>-Taste

während des POST-Vorgangs oder durch Drücken der <F2>-Taste im

BIOS-Setup-Menü Zugang zu ASRock Instant Flash. Sie brauchen dieses Werkzeug einfach nur zu starten und die neue BIOS-Datei auf Ihrem

USB-Flash-Laufwerk, Diskettenlaufwerk oder der Festplatte zu speichern, und schon können Sie Ihr BIOS mit nur wenigen Klickvorgän-

gen ohne Bereitstellung einer zusätzlichen Diskette oder eines anderen komplizierten Flash-Programms aktualisieren. Achten Sie darauf, dass das USB-Flash-Laufwerk oder die Festplatte das Dateisystem FAT32/16/12 benutzen muss.

11. Wenn Sie nach einer schnelleren, weniger eingeschränkten Möglichkeit zur Auﬂ adung Ihrer Apple-Geräte (z. B. iPhone/iPad/iPod touch) suchen, bietet ASRock Ihnen eine wunderbare Lösung – den ASRock APP Charger. Installieren Sie einfach den ASRock APP Charger-Treiber; dadurch lädt sich Ihr iPhone wesentlich schneller über einen Computer auf – genaugenommen bis zu 40 % schneller als zuvor. Der ASRock APP Charger ermöglicht Ihnen die schnelle Auﬂ adung mehrerer Apple-Geräte gleichzeitig; der Ladevorgang wird sogar dann fortgesetzt, wenn der PC den Ruhezustand (S1), Suspend to RAM-Modus (S3) oder Tiefschlafmo

dus (S4) aufruft oder ausgeschaltet wird (S5). Nach der Installation des

APP Charger-Treibers können Sie im Handumdrehen das großartigste Ladeerlebnis überhaupt genießen. ASRock-Webseite: http://www.asrock. com/Feature/AppCharger/index.asp

Gemäß dieser Ökodesign-Richtlinie (EuP) muss der gesamte Netzstromverbrauch von vollständigen Systemen unter 1,00 Watt liegen, wenn sie ausgeschaltet sind. Um dem EuP-Standard zu entsprechen, sind ein EuP-fähiges Motherboard und eine EuP-fähige Stromversorgung erforderlich. Gemäß einer Empfehlung von Intel muss eine EuP-fähige Stromversorgung dem Standard entsprechen, was bedeutet, dass bei einem Stromverbrauch von 100 mA die 5-Volt-Standby-Energieefﬁ zienz höher als 50% sein sollte. Für die Wahl einer EuP-fähigen Stromversorgung empfehlen wir Ihnen, weitere Details beim Hersteller der Stromversorgung abzufragen.

1.3 Einstellung der Jumper

Die Abbildung verdeutlicht, wie Jumper gesetzt werden. Werden Pins durch Jumperkappen verdeckt, ist der Jumper “Gebrückt”. Werden keine Pins durch Jumperkappen verdeckt, ist der Jumper “Offen”. Die Abbildung zeigt einen 3-Pin Jumper dessen Pin1 und Pin2 “Gebrückt” sind, bzw. es beﬁ ndet sich eine Jumper-Kappe auf diesen beiden Pins.

Jumper Einstellun Beschreibung

CMOS löschen

(CLRCMOS1, 3-Pin jumper)

(siehe S.2, No. 26)

Hinweis:

CLRCMOS1 ermöglicht Ihnen die Löschung der Daten im CMOS. Zum Löschen und Zurücksetzen der Systemparameter auf die Standardeinrichtung schalten Sie den Computer bitte aus und trennen das Netzkabel von der Stromversorgung. Warten Sie 15 Sekunden, schließen Sie dann Pin2 und Pin3 am CLRCMOS1 über einen Jumper fünf Sekunden lang kurz. Sie sollten das CMOS allerdings nicht direkt nach der BIOS-Aktualisierung löschen. Wenn Sie das CMOS nach Abschluss der BIOS-Aktualisierung löschen müssen, fahren Sie zuerst das System hoch. Fahren Sie es dann vor der CMOS-Löschung herunter. Bitte beachten Sie, dass Kennwort, Datum, Uhrzeit, benutzerdeﬁ niertes Proﬁ l, 1394 GUID und MAC-Adresse

nur gelöscht werden, wenn die CMOS-Batterie entfernt wird.

1.3 Réglage des cavaliers

L’illustration explique le réglage des cavaliers. Quand un capuchon est placé sur les broches, le cavalier est « FERME ». Si aucun capuchon ne relie les broches,le cavalier est « OUVERT ». L’illustration montre un cavalier à 3 broches dont les broches 1 et 2 sont « FERMEES » quand le capuchon est placé sur ces 2 broches.

Le cavalier Description

Effacer la CMOS

(CLRCMOS1) (voir p.2 ﬁ g. 26)

Remarque :

Paramètres par défaut

CLRCMOS1 vous permet d’effacer les données du CMOS. Pour effacer et réinitialiser les paramètres du système à la conﬁ guration originale, veuillez éteindre l’ordinateur et débrancher le cordon d’alimentation de la prise de courant. Après 15 secondes, utilisez un couvercle de jumper pour court-circuiter les broches pin2 et pin3 de CLRCMOS1 pendant secondes. Veuillez cependant ne pas effacer le CMOS immédiatement a

près avoir mis à jour le BIOS. Si vous avez besoin d’effacer le CMOS après avoir mis à jour le BIOS, vous devez allumer en premier le système, puis l’éteindre avant de continuer avec l’opération d’effacement du CMOS. Veuillez noter que le mot de passe, la date, l’heure, le proﬁ l par défaut de l’utilisateur, 1394 GUID et l’adresse MAC seront effacés seulement si la batterie du CMOS est enlevée.

20. EuP, che sta per Energy Using Product (Prodotto che consuma energia) , era una normativa emanata dall’Unione Europea che deﬁ niva il consumo energetico del sistema completo. In base all’EuP, l’alimentazione totale del sistema completo deve essere inferiore a 1,00 W quando è spento. Per soddisfare la norma EuP sono necessari un alimentatore e una scheda elettrica predisposti EuP. In base ai suggerimenti Intel l’alimenta

tore predisposto EuP deve soddisfare lo standard secondo cui l’efﬁ cienza

energetica in standby di 5 v è più alta del 50% con un consumo di corrente di 100 mA. Per la scelta di un’alimentatore predisposto EuP consigliamo di veriﬁ care ulteriori dettagli con il produttore.

scollegare il cavo d’alimentazione dalla presa di corrente. Attendere 15 secondi, poi usare un cappuccio jumper per cortocircuitare il pin 2 ed il pin 3 su CLRCMOS1 per 5 secondi. Tuttavia, si consiglia di non cancellare la CMOS subito dopo avere aggiornato il BIOS. Se si deve azzerare la CMOS quando si è completato l’aggiornamento del BIOS, è necessario per prima cosa avviare il sistema e poi spegnerlo prima di eseguire l’azzeramento della CMOS. Notare che password, data, ore, proﬁ lo utente predeﬁ nito, 1394 GUID e indirizzo MAC saranno cancellati solo se è rimossa la batteria della CMOS.
