1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. PREFACE
Welcome to use the 6EA motherboard. It is a Pentium II / Celeron 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.
