Installing DDR Module
1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the
retaining clips outward. Align a DIMM on
the slot such that the notch on the DIMM
matches the break on the slot.
2. Insert the DIMM firmly and vertically into
the slot until the retaining chip snap back in
place and the Dimm is properly seated.

(1) Floppy Disk Connector: FDD1
The motherboard provides a standard floppy disk connector that supports 360K,
720K, 1.2M, 1.44M and 2.88M floppy disk types. This connector supports the
provided floppy drive ribbon cables.
(2) Hard Disk Connectors: IDE1/ IDE2
The motherboard has a 32-bit Enhanced PCI IDE Controller that provides PIO
Mode 0~4, Bus Master, and Ultra DMA 33/ 66/ 100/ 133 functionality. It has two
HDD connectors IDE1 (primary) and IDE2 (secondary).
The IDE connectors can connect a master and a slave drive, so you can connect
up to four hard disk drives. The first hard drive should always be connected to
IDE1.
This motherboard is equipped with 5 standard PCI slots. PCI stands for Peripheral
Component Interconnect, and it is a bus standard for expansion cards. This PCI
slot is designated as 32 bits.
(4) Accelerated Graphics Port Slot: AGP1
Your monitor will attach directly to that video card. This motherboard supports
video cards for PCI slots, but it is also equipped with an Accelerated Graphics Port
(AGP). An AGP card will take advantage of AGP technology for improved video
efficiency and performance, especially with 3D graphics.
(5) Communication Network Riser Slot: CNR1
The CNR specification is an open Industry Standard Architecture, and it defines a
hardware scalabl e ri ser card interface, which supports modem only.
(6) Serial ATA Connector: JSATA1/ JSATA2
The motherboard has a PCI to SATA Controller with 2 channels SATA interface, it
satisfies the SATA 1.0 spec and can transfer data wi th 1.5GHz speed.
