Important:
The power button will not function once a keyboard
password has been set in the KB Power On Password
field of the Integrated Peripherals setup. You must type the
correct password to power-on the system.
The 5VSB power source of your power supply must
support ≥720mA (minimum).
Virus Protection
Most viruses today destroy data stored in hard drives. The system
board is designed to protect the boot sector and partition table of
your hard disk drive.

Jumper JP3
CPUs Front Side Bus Select
The default setting of jumper JP3 is
Auto - the system will automatically
run according to the FSB of the
processor. If you wish to overclock a
66MHz FSB processor to 100MHz,
set pins 1, 2 and 3 to Off. If you
want a 100MHz FSB processor to
run at 66MHz, set pins 2 and 3 to
On. Refer to the figure below.

Warning:
Overclocking a 66MHz FSB processor to 100MHz willl
provide better system performance. However, not all 66MHz
FSB processors are capable of running at 100MHz bus
speed. Therefore, if you are unable to boot your system when
set at 100MHz, make sure to set JP3 back to its default
setting.

KB Power On Password field, and now you wish to
disable the Wake-On-Keyboard (password) function, make
sure to set the Keyboard/Mouse Power On field to
Disabled prior to setting JP1 to disabled. You will not be
able to boot up the system if you fail to do so.
2. The power button will not function once a keyboard
password has been set in the KB Power On Password
field of the Integrated Peripherals setup. You must type
the password to power-on the system.
