(E) Notices for Assembling Computers:

1. Cases should be made of iron or other metal that has good electric conductivity.

2. Cylinders in a case should be made of metal, and as having a mainboard mounted

in a case, make sure screws are all utilized and fastened on a mainboard.

3. An I/O shielding should be contacted with I/O metallic parts of a mainboard.

4. Cables should appropriately be arranged and fixed in a case. Follow instructions:

Ø Leave IDE cables not crossed upon CPU and SDRAM;

Ø Leave power cables minimum in length, and not crossed upon a mainboard;

Ø Leave CPU fan cables minimum in length, and not near CPU;

Ø Leave cables on panels and other spare cables tied in a computer case.

5. Make sure an EMI shielding attached to a case has properly been installed.

6. Make sure a 5.25" or 3.5" FDD and screws are fastened to an EMI shielding.

7. Make sure a case is closely in contact with EMI connected points.

8. Make sure there is no cleft in a case which is not deformed.

9. Make sure a PCI or AGP door is bound to a case.

10. Make sure cables of other devices (fans or some others) are fixed in a case.

BIOS Settings

The SN27P2 BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify basic
system configuration. This information is stored in battery-backed RAM so that it re­tains Setup information even if the system power is turned off.

The system BIOS manages and executes a variety of hardware related functions
including:

System date and time

Hardware execution sequence

Power management functions

Allocation of system resources

Enter the BIOS

To enter the BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) utility, follow these steps:

Step1. Power on the computer. The system will perform its POST (Power-On

Self Test) routine checks.

Step2. Press the <Del> key immediately, or at the following message:

Press DEL to enter SETUP, or simultaneously press <Ctrl>,<Alt>,
<Esc> keys

Note 1. If you miss the train of words mentioned in step2 (the message disap-

pears before you can respond) and you still wish to enter BIOS Setup,
restart the system and try again by turning the computer OFF and
ON again or by pressing the <RESET> switch located at the
computer’s front-panel. You may also reboot by simultaneously
pressing the <Ctrl>,<Alt>, <Del> keys simultaneously.

Note 2. If you do not press the keys in time and system does not boot, the

screen will prompt an error message, and you will be given the
following options:

"Press F1 to Continue, DEL to Enter Setup”

Step3. When you enter the BIOS program, the CMOS Setup Utility will display the

Main Menu, as shown in the next section.
