5-4 Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Step 1: Set the CPU Freqency FSB Clock (JP8) [ Refer to Page 10 ]
1. The SDRAM Clock will depending on the DIMM Module the User used.
The PC-100 spec. SDRAM basicly can support 100MHZ or above Clock
2. The possible Front Side Bus setting are from 66 to 133 MHz.
3. If you want to overclock the CPU, please make sure the other
peripher als can work fine with one another. That mean you need to
well test the whole system with your own configuration, otherwise,
please set the default and safe setting with 66MHZ or 100MHZ front
side bus.
3. Please make sure you are using the correct DIMM module with the
related CPU type. For the 100MHZ or faster front side bus, you need to
use the PC100 type DIMM module.
Step 2: Set CPU Freqency Ratio ( JP11, JP12, JP13 ) [ Refer to Page 10 ]
1. Normally , The CPU itself will mention about the Frequency and the
Clock Ratio and also the Voltage of the Vcore, Please refer to the CPU
Type ans select the correct CPU Ratio
Step 3: Set the CPU Voltage, Vcore ( J10 ) [ Refer to Page 10 ]
1. There are the voltage range from 2.2V to 3.5V could be secectable.
Please refer to the CPU specification to set the correct CPU Vcore.
2. User also can set the Jumper ( J10 ) to CPU V oltage as Auto Detect
( Refer to page 10 ) form the AMD series CPU. For the Intel series
CPU, User need to set further jumper JP9 as OFF for the CPU Voltage

5-5 External Conncetion
1.Unplug your power supply when adding or removing expansion cards or other
system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both your
motherboard and expansion cards.
2.Ribbon cables should always be connected with the red stripe on the Pin 1
side of the connector. The Four Corners of the connectors are labeled on the
motherboard. Pin 1 is the side closest to the power connector on hard drives
and floppy drives. IDE ribbon cable must be less than 18in. (46cm), with the
second drive connector no more than 6in. (15cm) from the first connector.
3.The motherboard requires a power supply and a “power good” signal. Make
the A TX power supply can take at least 10mAmp load on the 5V Standby lead
(5VSB) to meet the standard A TX specification.
4. To prevent electrical spikes, make sure that the power supply is not connected to an outlet when making or removing connections. Power supplies
contain power remains, which can damage electrical components.
5. Expansion Card Installation Procedure
! Read the documentation for your expansion card and make any
necessary hardware or software settings for your expansion card, such as
jumpers.
! Remove your computer system’s cover and the bracket plate on the slot
you intend to use. Keep the bracket for possible future use.
! Carefully align the card’s connectors and press firmly .
! Secure the card on the slot with the screw you removed above.
! Replace the computer system’s cover .
! Set up the BIOS if necessary (such as IRQ xx Used By ISA: Yes in PNP
AND PCI SETUP)

5-5-1 Power Cable
A TX Power Supply Connector (A TXPWR, 20-pins)
Plug the connector from the power directly into the 20-pin male A TX PW connector on the motherboard as shown in the following figure. The plug from the
power supply will only insert in one orientation because of the different hole
sizes. Find the proper orientation and push down firmly making sure that the
pins are aligned and the power supply is off before connecting or disconnecting
the power cable.
Make sure that your A TX power supply
can supply at least 10 mAmp on the 5volt standby lead (5VSTB). Y ou may experience difficulty in powering on your
system if your power supply cannot support the load. For Wake on LAN support, your A TX power supply must supply at least 1 Amp.
Y ou should plug in/out the Power Cable
to/from the Mother Board more carefully ,
all the Pins should be conect at the
same time.

2). System Power LED ( Pin 15,16 )
This 3-pin connector lights the system
power LED when the motherboard has
power.
3). ACPI LED (Pin 7,8)
ACPI LED can use to control the blinking
of a LED at the freqency of 1 HZ to indicate the system is at power saving mode.
4). A TX Power Switch ( Pin 5,6 )
The system power is controlled by a push-switch, connected to this lead.
Pushing the button once will turn on the power and pushing again will turn off
the power . The system power LED shows that status of the system’s power .
If the power to the A TX power supply is interrupted while the motherboard is
on, standby power will remember that the motherboard should be on and
boot the computer when power is reapplied to the A TX power supply .
5). Reset Switch ( Pin 1,2 )
This 2-pin connector connects to the case-mounted reset switch for
rebooting your computer without having to turn off your power switch. This
is a preferred method of rebooting in order to prolong the life of the system
power supply .

almost the standard of the ISA Bus sound cards, a lot of games were
Programmed for Sound Blaster especially under DOS environment. If the
users are still interested in playing these game titles, they might have
compatibility problems with the new up graded PCI Bus sound card. This
header adopts Intels PC/PCI technology to deliver Sound Blaster 16 compatibility to PCI Bus sound card, enabling users to play real-mode DOS
games. Connect the cable provided by PCI sound card to this connector.

5-6 Power On Procedure
1.After all connections are made, close the system case cover.
2.Be sure that all switches are off (in some systems, marked with 0)
3.Make sure your power supply voltage is correctly set to 1 10V or 230V .
4.Connect the power supply cord into the power supply located on the back of
your system case according to your system user’s manual.
5.Connect the power cord into a power outlet that is equipped with a surge
protector.
6.Y ou may then turn on your devices in the following order:
Y our monitor
External SCSI devices (starting with the last device on the chain)
Y our system power . For A TX power supplies, you need to switch on the power
supply as well as press the A TX power switch on the front of the case.
7.The power LED on the front panel of the system case will light. For A TX power
supplies, the system LED will light when the A TX power switch is pressed. The
monitor LED may light up after the system power up. if it complies with “green”
standards or if it has a power standby feature. The system will then run poweron tests. While the tests are running, additional messages will appear on the
screen. If you do not see anything within 30 seconds from the time you turn on
the power, the system may have failed a power-on test. Recheck your jumper
settings and connections or call your retailer for assistance.
8.During power-on, hold down <Delete> to enter BIOS setup menu if you want
to run the BIOS Setup Utility .
Powering Off your computer: You must first exit or shut down your operating
system before switching off the power switch. For A TX power supplies, you can
press the A TX power switch after exiting or shutting down your operating system. If you use Windows 95/98, click the Start button, click Shut Down, and
then click Shut down the computer. The system will give three quick beeps
after about 30 seconds and then power off after Windows shuts down.
The message “Y ou can now safely turn of f your computer” will not appear when
shutting down with ATX power supplies.
