USER'S MANUAL

1.System power on by PS/2 Mouse: First, enable this function in CMOS Setup, then you can power on the system by double clicking the right or left button of your PS/2 Mouse.

2.System power on by Keyboard: If your ATX power supply supports larger than 300 mA 5V Stand-By current (depends on the specification of keyboards), you can power on your system by entering password from the Keyboard after setting the “Keyboard power on” jumper and password in CMOS Setup.

3.Support 3 steps ACPI LED selectable.

4.Support Modem Ring-On (Include internal Modem and external modem on COM A and COM B).

5.Support Wake-up On LAN (Your ATX power supply must support larger than 720 mA 5V Stand-By current).

CPU SPEED SETUP

The system bus frequency can be switched between 66¡ 100MHzB and by adjusting JP6 & JP28 (See Figure-1). The CPU Frequency is

control by BIOS.

MThe CPU speed must match with the frequency RATIO. It will cause system hanging up if the frequency RATIO is higher than that of CPU.

«Note: Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor’ s specifications. We don’ t recommend you to set the system bus frequency over the CPU’ s specification because these specific bus frequencies are not the standard specifications for CPU, chipset and most of the peripherals. Whether your system can run under these specific bus frequencies properly will depend on your hardware configurations, including CPU, Chipsets, SDRAM, Cards….etc.

«Note: JP28 is only available when the motherboard use 82810E Chipset.

IV. Suspend to RAM Installation

A.1 Introduce STR function:

Suspend-to-RAM (STR) is a Windows 98 ACPI sleep mode function. When

recovering from STR (S3) sleep mode, the system is able, in just a few seconds, to retrieve the last “state” of the system before it went to sleep and

recover to that state. The “state” is stored in memory (RAM) before the system goes to sleep. During STR sleep mode, your system uses only enough energy to maintain critical information and system functions, primarily the system state and the ability to recognize various “wake up” triggers or signals, respectively.

A.2 STR function Installation

Please use the following steps to complete the STR function installation.

Step-By-Step Setup Step 1:

To utilize the STR function, the system must be in Windows 98 ACPI mode.

Putting Windows 98 into ACPI mode is fairly easy.

Setup with Windows 98 CD:

A.Insert the Windows 98 CD into your CD-ROM drive, select Start, and then Run.

B.Type (without quotes) “D:\setup /p j” in the window provided. Hit the enter key or click OK.

C.After setup completes, remove the CD, and reboot your system

(This manual assumes that your CD-ROM device drive letter is D:).
