Introduction
This mainboard is an Intel 440BX 100MHz highly integrated high-performance mainboard based on the advanced Pentium® II microprocessor and provides CPU Plug and Play feature for faster and easier CPU installation. The mainboard features with highly flexible configurations and is fully IBM PC/AT compatible.
The mainboard uses a high-end AGPset chipset that supports the PCI/ISA and Green standards, it provides the Host/AGP bridge, and integrates all system control functions such as ACPI(Advanced Configuration and Power Interface). The ACPI provides more energy saving features for the OSPM(OS Direct Power Management) function.
The mainboard has a built in high performance 64-bit 3D AGP Graphics Accelerator with 8MB frame buffer and an onboard 3D PCI Sound to meet PC98's specifications for 3D Multimedia systems. Built-in Hardware Monitor circuit to monitor CPU/Chasis temperatures/fan speeds/voltages with AMI Desktop Client Manager and options to support Intel LANDesk Client Manager(LDCM). The mainboard BIOS provides Trend's ChipAwayVirus to ensure the entire boot process virus free.

Introduction 5
Unpacking the Mainboard & Static Electricity Precautions
This Mainboard package contains the following items:
1.This Mainboard and the Device Driver
2.The Slot1 Holder and AT cables
3.This User’s Guide and COM2 cable/bracket
4.Internal SPDIF/IN cable (optional)
5.Optional Digital Audio cable/bracket
The mainboard is easily damaged by static electricity. Follow the precautions below while unpacking or installing the mainboard.
1.Do not remove the mainboard from its original
package until you are ready to install it.
2.Ground yourself to discharge static electricity
that may build up in your body while working on the installation and/or configuration.
For example, you may ground yourself by grasping an unpainted portion of the systemÕs metal chassis.
3.Remove the mainboard from its anti-static bag
and place it on a grounded surface, component side up.
4.Handle the mainboard by its edges or by the
mounting bracket. Avoid touching its components.
5.Check the mainboard for damage. If any integrated
circuit appears loose, press carefully to seat it firmly in its socket.
6.Do not apply power if the mainboard appears
damaged. If there is a visible damage on the board contact your dealer immediately.
Chapter 2
Hardware Configuration
Before you install the mainboard into the system chassis, you may find it convenient to first configure the mainboard’s hardware. This chapter describes how to set jumpers and install memory modules, and where to attach components, however, the CMOS jumper is set on “Clear” position when this mainboard is shipped. You will need to set it to “Normal” position in order for the mainboard to perform properly.
Warning:Set RTC to “Normal” position before setting other
jumpers or memory modules. This mainboard will not function properly if you fail to do so.

CPU Installation
This mainboard supports Intel Pentium® II CPU by a Single Edge Contact(SEC) slot and a retention clip set which is fit for 3 different mechanical types of Intel CPU (SEPP, SECC and SECC2). The following drawing shows the retention clip set. It has been preinstalled before shipping to make the CPU installation easier for users. However, there are still a few more steps needed to complete the CPU installation, please refer to the following procedures.

Step 2:
There is one set of Slot1 retention Holder which was installed on your motherboard. The two chutes of the
retention Holder are screwed in. Lift up both chutes as shown in the drawing.
Step 3:
Flatten the two latches on the side of the CPU. Insert CPU into the retention Holder. Lock the two latches to secure CPU.
If Celeron CPU is installed on CPU card, please continue the following steps.
Hardware Configuration
Step 4:
After installing CPU card into the retention Holder, push the retention locker downward to secure the CPU card as indicated in the following 2 drawings.
CPU Speed Setting
This mainboard provides CPU Plug and Play technology, so that there is no need to set the CPU jumper. Enter the BIOS Setup and select CPU Plug and Play Setup. Choose the correct CPU speed to match your installed CPU.
However, if you need to change a CPU, follow the below steps:
1. Power off the system and unplug the power cord.
2. Install a new CPU to Slot1.
3. Clear CMOS RAM (see Jumper Settings) then power
 on the system.
4. After the power is on, enter the BIOS Setup to set the  new CPU speed.
Note: If the CPU speed is set incorrectly it'll fail to boot up the system. If this happends repeat steps 1, 3, and 4.
