Federal Communications Commission Statement
This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
w This device may not cause harmful interference
w This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy. If this equipment is not installed and
used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, it may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
w Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
w Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
w Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
w Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The use of shielded cables for connection of the monitor to the graphics card is required to
assure compliance with FCC regulations. Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate
this equipment.
Canadian Department of Communications Statement
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for audio noise emissions from
digital apparatusses set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian
Department of Communications.

The following is a list of IRQs(Interrupt ReQuests), which can be exempted much as the
COM ports and LPT ports above can. When an I/O device wants to gain the attention of the
operating system, it signals this by causing an IRQ to occur. When the operating system is
ready to respond to the request, it interrupts itself and performs the service.
When set On, activity will neither prevent the system from going into a power management
mode nor awaken it.

These two options allow you to set your system passwords. Normally, the
supervisor has a higher ability to change the CMOS setup option than the user.
The way to set up the passwords for both supervisor and user are as follows:
1. Choose CHANGE PASSWORD from the Main Menu and press
<Enter>. The following message appears:
“Enter Password:”
2. The first time you run this option, enter your own password up to 8
characters and press <Enter>. The screen doesnt display the
entered characters.
3. After you entered the password, the following message appears
prompting you to confirm the password:
“Confirm Password:”
4. Enter the same password exactly as you just typed again to
confirm the password and press <Enter>.
5. Move the cursor to Save & Exit Setup to save the password.
6. If you need to delete the password you entered before, choose the
Supervisor Password and press <Enter>. It will delete the password
that you had before.
7. Move the cursor to Save & Exit Setup to save the option you did,
otherwise the old password will still be there the next time you turn
your machine on.
8. Press <ESC> to exit to the Main Menu.
Note: If you forget or lose the password, the only way to
access the system is to clear the CMOS RAM by
setting JBAT1. All setup information will be lost and
back to default seting. You need to run the BIOS
setup program and re-define all settings again.

If you are using Windows 98 SE, you do not need to install the 4-in-1
driver as the IRQ Routing Driver and the ACPI Registry are already incorpo-
rated into the operating system. Users with Windows 98 SE may update the
IDE Busmaster and AGP drivers by installing them individually.
1. Put the CD into your CD-ROM.
2. There appears a welcome window.
(If doesnt, it means that your CD-ROM auto-run function does not enable, but
you still can browser the CD via Windows Explorer and change the directory to
where your CD-ROM directory is. Then run the autorun.exe)
