Environmental Safety Instruction
z Avoid the dusty, humidity and temperature extremes. Do not place the product in
any area where it may become wet.
z 0 to 40 centigrade is the suitable temperature. (The figure comes from the request
of the main chipset)
z Generally speaking, dramatic changes in temperature may lead to contact
malfunction and crackles due to constant thermal expansion and contraction from
the welding spots’ that connect components and PCB. Computer should go
through an adaptive phase before it boots when it is moved from a cold
environment to a warmer one to avoid condensation phenomenon. These water
drops attached on PCB or the surface of the components can bring about
phenomena as minor as computer instability resulted from corrosion and oxidation
from components and PCB or as major as short circuit that can burn the
components. Suggest starting the computer until the temperature goes up.
z The increasing temperature of the capacitor may decrease the life of computer.
Using the close case may decrease the life of other device because the higher
temperature in the inner of the case.
z Attention to the heat sink when you over-clocking. The higher temperature may
decrease the life of the device and burned the capacitor.
Environmental Protection Announcement
Do not dispose this electronic device into the trash while discarding. To minimize
pollution and ensure environment protection of mother earth, please recycle.

2-2-2 Motherboard Internal Connectors
(1) Power Connector (24-pin block): ATXPWR
ATX Power Supply connector: This is a new defined 24-pins connector that
usually comes with ATX case. The ATX Power Supply allows using soft power
on momentary switch that connect from the front panel switch to 2-pins Power
On jumper pole on the motherboard. When the power switch on the back of the
ATX power supply turned on, the full power will not come into the system board
until the front panel switch is momentarily pressed. Press this switch again will
turn off the power to the system board.
** We recommend that you use an ATX 12V Specification 2.0-compliant power
supply unit (PSU) with a minimum of 350W power rating. This type has 24-pin
and 4-pin power plugs.
** If you intend to use a PSU with 20-pin and 4-pin power plugs, make sure that the
20-pin power plug can provide at least 15A on +12V and the power supply unit
has a minimum power rating of 350W. The system may become unstable or may
not boot up if the power is inadequate.
** If you are using a 20-pin power plug, please refer to Figure1 for power supply
connection. Power plug form power supply and power connectors from
motherboard both adopt key design to avoid mistake installation. You can insert
the power plug into the connector with ease only in the right direction. If the
direction is wrong it is hard to fit in and if you make the connection by force if is
possible.

Figure1:20-pin power plug Figure 2:24-pin power plug
(2) ATX 12V Power Connector (8-pin block) : ATX12V1
This is a new defined 8-pin connector that usually comes with ATX Power
Supply. The ATX Power Supply which fully supports AMD AM3 processor must
including this connector for support extra 12V voltage to maintain system power
consumption. Without this connector might cause system unstable because the
power supply can not provide sufficient current for system.

(4) Primary IDE Connector (40-pin block): IDE
This connector supports the provided IDE hard disk ribbon cable. After
connecting the single plug end to motherboard, connect the two plugs at other
end to your hard disk(s). If you install two hard disks, you must configure the
11
second drive to Slave mode by setting its jumpers accordingly. Please refer to
the documentation of your hard disk for the jumper settings.
•
Two hard disks can be connected to each connector. The first HDD is referred
to as the “Master” and the second HDD is referred to as the “Slave”.
•
For performance issues, we strongly suggest you don’t install a CD-ROM or
DVD-ROM drive on the same IDE channel as a hard disk. Otherwise, the system
performance on this channel may drop.

Introducing BIOS
Notice! The BIOS options in this manual are for reference only. Different
configurations may lead to difference in BIOS screen and BIOS
screens in manuals are usually the first BIOS version when the board
is released and may be different from your purchased motherboard.
Users are welcome to download the latest BIOS version form our
official website.
The BIOS is a program located on a Flash Memory on the motherboard. This program
is a bridge between motherboard and operating system. When you start the computer,
the BIOS program will gain control. The BIOS first operates an auto-diagnostic test
called POST (power on self test) for all the necessary hardware, it detects the entire
hardware device and configures the parameters of the hardware synchronization.
Only when these tasks are completed done it gives up control of the computer to
operating system (OS). Since the BIOS is the only channel for hardware and
software to communicate, it is the key factor for system stability, and in ensuring that
your system performance as its best.
In the BIOS Setup main menu of Figure 3-1, you can see several options. We will
explain these options step by step in the following pages of this chapter, but let us first
see a short description of the function keys you may use here:
•
Press <Esc> to quit the BIOS Setup.
•
Press ↑↓←→ (up, down, left, right) to choose, in the main menu, the option you
want to confirm or to modify.
•
Press Page Up/Page Down or +/– keys when you want to modify the BIOS
parameters for the active option.
3-1 Entering Setup
Power on the computer and by pressing <Del> immediately allows you to enter Setup.
If the message disappears before your respond and you still wish to enter Setup,
restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the “RESET”
button on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>,
<Alt> and <Delete> keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the
system does not boot, an error message will be displayed and you will again be asked
to
Press <Del> to enter Setup
