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.
Notice:
1. The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
2. Shielded interface cables must be used in order to comply with the emission
limits.

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.
1
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.

Introduction
Features
DDR2
DDR2 is a higher performance DDR technology whose data transfer rate delivers
bandwidth of 4.3 GB per second and beyond. That is twice the speed of the conventional DDR without increasing its power consumption. DDR2 SDRAM modules
work at 1.8V supply compared to 2.6V memory voltage for DDR modules. DDR2
also incorporates new innovations such as the On-Die Termination (ODT) as well
as larger 4-bit pre-fetch against DDR which fetches 2 bits per clock cycle.
Graphics
The integrated Intel® HD graphics engine delivers an excellent blend of graphics
performance and features to meet business needs. It provides excellent video
and 3D graphics with outstanding graphics responsiveness. These enhancements
deliver the performance and compatibility needed for today’s and tomorrow’s
business applications. Supports LVDS and SDVO display outputs.
1
Serial ATA
Serial ATA is a storage interface that is compliant with SATA 2.0a specification.
With speed of up to 3Gb/s (SATA 2.0), it improves hard drive performance faster
than the standard parallel ATA whose data transfer rate is 100MB/s. The bandwidth of the SATA 3.0 will be limited by carrier board design.
Gigabit LAN
The Micrel KSZ9021RNI Ethernet Phy controller supports up to 1Gbps data transmission.

BIOS Setup
Chapter 3 - BIOS Setup
Note:
QB701-B Series support WinXP driver only. Win7 and Linux is available
only upon request.
Overview
The BIOS is a program that takes care of the basic level of communication between the CPU and peripherals. It contains codes for various advanced features
found in this system board. The BIOS allows you to confi gure the system and
save the confi guration in a battery-backed CMOS so that the data retains even
when the power is off. In general, the information stored in the CMOS RAM of
the EEPROM will stay unchanged unless a confi guration change has been made
such as a hard drive replaced or a device added.
It is possible that the CMOS battery will fail causing CMOS data loss. If this happens, you need to install a new CMOS battery and reconfi gure the BIOS settings.
Note:
The BIOS is constantly updated to impro
tem board; therefore the BIOS screens in this chapter may not appear
the same as the actual one. These screens are for reference purpose
only.
ve the performance of the sys-
Default Configuration
Most of the confi guration settings are either predefi ned according to the Load Op-
timal Defaults settings which are stored in the BIOS or are automatically detected
and confi gured without requiring any actions. There are a few settings that you
may need to change depending on your system confi guration.
Entering the BIOS Setup Utility
The BIOS Setup Utility can only be operated from the keyboard and all commands are keyboard commands. The commands are available at the right side of
each setup screen.
The BIOS Setup Utility does not require an operating system to run. After you
power up the system, the BIOS message appears on the screen and the memory
count begins. After the memory test, the message “Press DEL to run setup” will
appear on the screen. If the message disappears before you respond, restart the
system or press the “Reset” button. You may also restart the system by pressing
the <Ctrl> <Alt> and <Del> keys simultaneously.
