8 USB 2.0 ports
The motherboard implements the new Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0
specification, extending the connection speed from 12 Mbps on USB 1.1 to a fast
480 Mbps on USB 2.0. The higher bandwidth of USB 2.0 allows connection of
devices such as high resolution video conferencing cameras, next generation
scanners and printers, and fast storage units. USB 2.0 is backward compatible with
USB 1.1. See page 1-20.

C.P.R. (CPU Parameter Recall)
The C.P.R. feature of the motherboard BIOS allows automatic re-setting to the
BIOS default settings in case the system hangs due to overclocking. When the
system hangs due to overclocking, C.P.R. eliminates the need to open the system
chassis and clear the RTC data. Simply shut down and reboot the system, and
BIOS automatically restores the CPU's previous setting for each parameter.

available options. The localized BIOS menus allow you to configure easier and
faster. Visit the ASUS website for information on the supported languages. See
page 2-11.

With the ASUS EZ Flash, you can easily update the system BIOS even before
loading the operating system. No need to use a DOS-based utility or boot from a
floppy disk. See page 2-5.
