1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. PREFACE

Welcome to use the 6ZM7/6ZM7A motherboard. It is a CeleronTM Socket 370
Processor based PC / AT compatible system with AGP / PCI / ISA Bus, and
has been designed to be the fastest PC / AT system. There are some new
features allow you to operate the system with just the performance you want.

This manual also explains how to install the motherboard for operation, and
how to set up your CMOS CONFIGURATION with BIOS SETUP program.
