How to s e t u p Jumper

The illustrat ion sho ws how to set up a jum per. W h en the Jumper c ap is plac ed on pins , the
jumper is “close”. If no jumper cap is placed on the pins, the jumper is ”open”. The

illust rat ion shows a 3-pin jumper whos e pin1 and 2 are “c lose” when jumper cap is placed
on thes e 2 pins .

CPU Installation

Step1: Pull the lever sideway s away from the socket and then raise the lev er up to a

90 -degree angl e.

Step2: Look for the whit e dot /cut edge. The whit e dot/ cut edge should point wards the lever

piv ot. The C P U will f it only in the correct orient at ion .

Step3: Hold the CPU down fir mly, an d then cl ose the lever to complete the installation.
Step4: Put the CPU Fan on the C PU and buck le it. Connect the C PU fan power cable to

the JCFAN1. This completes the installation.

Floppy Disk Connector: FDD1

The mot herboard provides a standard f loppy disk connector that supports 360K,
720K, 1.2M, 1.44M and 2.88M floppy disk types. This connector supports the

prov ided f loppy drive ribbon cables .

Hard Disk Connectors: IDE1/ IDE2

The motherboard has a 32-bit Enhanced PCI IDE Controller that provides PIO
Mode 0~4, Bus Mast er, and U ltra DMA 33/ 66/ 100 f unctionality. I t has two H DD

connectors ID E1 (primary) and IDE2 (secondary).
The ID E c onnectors can c onnect a master and a slav e driv e, so y ou can c onnect

up to four hard disk drives . The f irst hard drive s hould alway s be c onnected t o
IDE1.

Peripheral Component Interconnect Slots: PCI 1-5

This m ot herboard is equipped with 5 st andard PCI s lots. PCI stands for Peripheral
Component I nterconnec t, and it is a bus standard for expansion cards. This PCI

slot is des ignated as 32 bits.

Accelerate d Graphics Port Slot: AGP1

Your monitor will attach directly to that video card. This motherboard supports
video cards f or PC I s lots, but it is als o equipped with an Accelerated Graphics Port

(AGP). An AGP c ard will take advantage of AGP technology f or improv ed video
efficiency and perform ance, es pecially with 3D graphics.

WarpSpeeder

Introduction

[ W arpSpeeder™ ], a new powerf ul control utility, f eatures three us er-f riendly functions
including Ov erclock Manager, Ov ervoltage Manager, and H ardware Monit or.

With the Over clock Manage r, users can easil y adjust the frequency the y p refer or t hey can
get t he best CPU perf ormanc e wit h jus t one click . The Ov ervoltage Manager, on the other

hand, helps to power up CPU core voltage and Memory voltage. The cool Hardware
Monitor smartly indic ates the t emperatures, volt age and CPU fan speed as well as the

chips et inform at ion. Also, in t he About panel, you c an get det ail des c ript ions about BI OS
model and chipsets. In addition, t he frequency status of CPU, memory, AGP and PC I

along with t he C PU s peed are synchronically shown on our m ain panel.
Moreov er, to protect users' c om puter sy s tems if the s etting is not appropriat e when testing

and results in system f ail or hang, [ WarpSpeeder™ ] technology assures the system
st ability by automat ically reboot in g the c om puter and then restart t o a speed that is either

the original sys t em speed or a s uit able one.

System Requirement

OS Support : Windows 98 SE, W indows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP
Direc t X: DirectX 8.1 or abov e. (The W indows XP operating sys tem inc ludes D irectX 8. 1. If

you us e W indows XP, y ou do not need t o inst all D irectX 8. 1. )
