FCC and DOC Statement on Class B
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equip­ment is operated in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV technician for help.

Introduction
Static Electricity Precautions
It is quite easy to inadvertently damage your PC, system board, components or devices even before installing them in your system unit. Static electrical discharge can damage computer components without causing any signs of physical damage. You must take extra care in handling them to ensure against electrostatic build-up.
1. To prevent electrostatic build-up, leave the system board in its anti-static bag until you are ready to install it.
2. Wear an antistatic wrist strap.
3. Do all preparation work on a static-free surface.
4. Hold the device only by its edges. Be careful not to touch any of the components, contacts or connections.
5. Avoid touching the pins or contacts on all modules and connectors. Hold modules or connectors by their ends.
Important:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drive and other components. Perform the upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD workstation only. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the system chassis. If a wrist strap is unavailable, es­tablish and maintain contact with the system chassis throughout any procedures requiring ESD protection.
Safety Measures
To avoid damage to the system:
•Use the correct AC input voltage range
..
..
.
To reduce the risk of electric shock:
Unplug the power cord before removing the system chassis cover for installation or servicing. After installation or servicing, cover the system chassis before plugging the power cord.
Battery:
Danger of explosion if battery incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommend
by
the manufacturer.
Dispose of used batteries according to local ordinance.

If you encounter the following,
a) CMOS data becomes corrupted. b) You forgot the supervisor or user password. c) The overclocked settings in the BIOS resulted to the system’s in-
stability or caused system boot up problems.
you can reconfigure the system with the default values stored in the ROM BIOS.
JP10 is accessible from the rear panel of the system. This provides convenience by allowing you to clear the CMOS without having to remove the chassis cover.
To load the default values stored in the ROM BIOS, please follow the steps below.
1. Power-off the system then unplug the power cord.
2. Set JP2 or JP10 pins 2 and 3 to On. Wait for a few seconds and set JP2 or JP10 back to its default setting, pins 1 and 2 On.
3. Now plug the power cord then power-on the system.

LEDs
DRAM Power LED
This LED will light when the system’s power is on.
Standby Power LED
This LED will light when the system is in the standby mode.
Diagnostic LED
The Diagnostic LED displays POST codes. POST (Power-On Self Tests) which is controlled by the BIOS is performed whenever you power-on the system. POST will detect the status of the system and its components. Each code displayed on the LED corresponds to a certain system status.
Warning:
When the DRAM Power LED and/or Standby Power LED lit red, it indicates that power is present on the DIMM sockets and/or PCI slots. Power-off the PC then unplug the power cord prior to installing any memory modules or add-in cards. Failure to do so will cause severe damage to the motherboard and components.

Power Connectors
Use a power supply that complies with the ATX12V Power Supply Design Guide Version 1.1. An ATX12V power supply unit has a standard 24-pin ATX main power connector that must be inserted into this connector.
Your power supply unit may come with an 8-pin or 4-pin +12V power connector. The +12V power enables the delivery of more +12VDC current to the processor’s Voltage Regulator Module (VRM). If available, it is preferable to use the 8-pin power; otherwise connect a 4-pin power to this connector.

The FDD-type power connectors are additional power connector.s If you are using more than one graphics cards, we recommend that you plug power cables from your power supply unit to the 5V/12V power connectors. This will provide more stability to the entire system. The system board will still work even if the additional power connector is not connected.
The system board requires a minimum of 300 Watt power supply to operate. Your system configuration (CPU power, amount of memory, add-in cards, peripherals, etc.) may exceed the minimum power requirement. To ensure that adequate power is provided, we
strongly recommend that you use a minimum of 400 Watt (or greater) power supply.
Important:
Insufficient power supplied to the system may result in instabil­ity or the add-in boards and peripherals not functioning properly. Calculating the system’s approximate power usage is important to ensure that the power supply meets the system’s consumption requirements.

Restarting the PC
Normally, you can power-off the PC by:
1. Pressing the power button at the front panel of the chassis.
or
2. Pressing the power switch that is on the system board (note: not all system boards come with this switch).
If for some reasons you need to totally cut off the power supplied to the PC, switch off the power supply or unplug the power cord. Take note though that if you intend to restart it at once, please strictly follow the steps below.
1. The time where power is totally discharged varies among power supplies. It's discharge time is highly dependent on the system's configuration such as the wattage of the power supply, the se­quence of the supplied power as well as the number of periph­eral devices connected to the system. Due to this reason, we strongly recommend that you wait for the Standby Power LED (refer to the “LEDs” section in this chapter for the location of the Standby Power LED) to lit off.
2. After the Standby Power LED has lit off, wait for 6 seconds before powering on the PC.
If the system board is already enclosed in a chassis which appar­ently will not make the Standby Power LED visible, wait for 15 seconds before you restore power connections. 15 seconds is approximately the time that will take the LED to lit off and the time needed before restoring power.
The above will ensure protection and prevent damage to the motherboard and components.

HD-LED: Primary/Secondary IDE LED
This LED will light when the hard drive is being accessed.
RESET: Reset Switch
This switch allows you to reboot without having to power off the system thus prolonging the life of the power supply or system.
SPEAKER: Speaker Connector
This connects to the speaker installed in the system chassis.
ATX-SW: ATX Power Switch
Depending on the setting in the BIOS setup, this switch is a “dual function power button” that will allow your system to enter the Soft­Off or Suspend mode.
PWR-LED: Power/Standby LED
When the system’s power is on, this LED will light. When the system is in the S1 (POS - Power On Suspend) or S3 (STR - Suspend To RAM) state, it will blink every second.

Note:
If a system did not boot-up and the Power/Standby LED did not light after it was powered-on, it may indicate that the CPU or memory module was not installed properly. Please make sure they are properly inserted into their corresponding socket.
