1. Getting Started
1.1 Safety Precautions
Warning!
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your chassis whenever you work with the hardware. Do not make connections while the power is on. Sensitive electronic components can be damaged by sudden power surges. Only experienced electronics personnel should open the PC chassis.
Caution!
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the CPU card. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. As a safety precaution, use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components in a static-dissipative surface or static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis.
1.2 Packing List
Before you begin installing your single board, please make sure that the following materials have been shipped:

1.4 Manual Objectives
This manual describes in details Avalue Technology EQM-A50M QSeven Module.
We have tried to include as much information as possible but we have not duplicated information that is provided in the standard IBM Technical References, unless it proved to be necessary to aid in the understanding of this board.
We strongly recommend that you study this manual carefully before attempting to set up EQM-A50M QSeven Module or change the standard configurations. Whilst all the necessary information is available in this manual we would recommend that unless you are confident, you contact your supplier for guidance.
Please be aware that it is possible to create configurations within the CMOS RAM that make booting impossible. If this should happen, clear the CMOS settings, (see the description of the Jumper Settings for details).
If you have any suggestions or find any errors regarding this manual and want to inform us of these, please contact our Customer Service department with the relevant details.

3.1 Introduction
The BIOS setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. In this following chapter will describe how to access the BIOS setup program and the configuration options that may be changed.
3.2 Starting Setup
The BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The BIOS reads the system information contained in the NVRAM and begins the process of checking out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways: By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or By pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears briefly at the bottom of the screen during the POST (Power On Self Test).
Press <DEL> or <F2> 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" button on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Delete> keys.
