System board conforms to the ATX specification. Board dimensions: 304mm × 190mm - - Advanced Features Ø Dual Function Power Button - The system can be in one of two states, one is Suspend mode and the other is Soft-Off mode. Pushing the power button for less than 4 seconds places the system into Suspend mode.
3 HARDWARE INSTALLATION This section outlines how to install and configure your AV14 mainboard. Refer to the following mainboard layout to help you identify various jumpers, connectors, slots, and ports. Then follow these steps designed to guide you through a quick and correct installa- tion of your system.
Step 1 Install the CPU: 1. Locate the CPU ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) socket on the upper-right sector of your mainboard (between the back-panel connectors and the DIMM memory banks). 2. Pull the CPU ZIF socket lever slightly sideways away from the socket to unlock the lever, then bring it to an upward vertical position.
Step 2. Set Jumpers This mainboard is jumperless! The default jumper settings have been set for the common usage standard of this mainboard. Therefore, you do not need to reset the jumpers unless you require special adjustments as in any cases below : 1.
Step 4 Install Internal Peripherals in System Case Before you install and connect the mainboard into your system case, we recommend that you first assemble all the internal peripheral devices into the computer housing, including but not limited to the hard disk drive (IDE/ HDD), floppy disk drive (FDD), CD-ROM drive, and ATX power supply unit.
Step 5 Mount the Mainboard on the Computer Chassis 1. You may find that there are a lot of different mounting hole positions both on your computer chassis and on the mainboard. To choose a correct mounting hole, the key point is to keep the back-panel of the mainboard in a close fit with your system case, as shown below.
Step 6 Connect Front Panel Switches/LEDs/Speaker You can find there are several different cables already existing in the system case and originating from the computer’s front-panel devices (HDD LED, Power LED, Reset Switch, PC Speaker, etc.) These cables serve to connect the front-panel switches and LEDs to the mainboard’s front-panel connectors group, as shown below.

Step 9 Connect the Power Supply 1. System power connector Step 10 Install Add-on Cards in Expansion Slots 1. Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) Card 2. PCI Card 3. ISA Card - 18 -...
Step 11 Connect External Peripherals to Back Panel You are now ready to put the computer case back together and get on to the external peripherals connections to your system’s back-panel. 1. PS/2 Mouse and PS/2 Keyboard PS/2 Mouse PS/2 keyboard 2.
Step 12 First Time System Boot Up To assure the completeness and correctness of your system installation, you may check the above installation steps once again before you boot up your system for the first time. 1. Insert a bootable system floppy disk (DOS 6.2x, Windows 95/98/NT, or others) which contains FDISK and FORMAT utilities into the FDD.
Make sure your Windows 9x operating system is already installed before running the drivers installation CD-ROM programs. 1. Insert the AV14 bundled CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. The auto-run program will display the drivers main installation window on screen.
3.2 Jumper Settings Several hardware settings are made through the use of jumper caps to con- nect jumper pins on the mainboard. Pin #1 could be located at any corner of each jumper, you just find a white right angle on the mainboard, that's pin 1#.
Jumpers & Connectors Guide Use the mainboard layout on page 10 to locate CPU socket, memory banks, expansion slots, jumpers and connectors on the mainboard during the instal- lation. The following list will help you to identify jumpers, slots, and connec- tors along with their assigned functions: CPU/Memory/Expansion Slots Socket370 : CPU Socket for FC-PGA/PPGA 370 processors...

Set PS/2 Keyboard & PS/2 Mouse Power-On (JP3) AV14 mainboard provides an easy power-on by PS/2 keyboard and PS/2 mouse. Note: When you enable Keyboard Power-On, you also need to configure the proper hot-key combination <Ctrl> + < function key F1 ~ F12 >...
Clear CMOS (JP12) JP12 is used to clear CMOS data. Clearing CMOS will result in perma- nently erasing the previous system configuration settings and restoring the original (factory-set) system settings. Pin 1-2 (Default) Pin 2-3 (Clear CMOS) Step 1. Turn off the system power (PC-> Off) Step 2.
Front Side Bus (FSB) Speed Auto Config. Setting (JP16 and JP14) AV14 provides jumper JP14 and JP16 to set auto configure front side bus at 66MHz, 100MHz and 133MHz. Inserting mini-jumper caps on JP16 and leave JP14 all open as below to identify automatically the FSB speed.
CPU Clock Ratio Setting (JP9) AV14 mainboard provides a jumper group JP9 to set CPU speed configure by BIOS or by hardware jumper. By inserting jumper pack on Manual group properly, the user can configure the CPU Clock Ratio manually.
PS/2 Keyboard & PS/2 Mouse Connectors Two 6-pin female PS/2 keyboard & Mouse connectors are located at the rear panel of the mainboard. Depending on the com- PS/2 Mouse puter housing you use (desktop or minitower), the PS/2 Mouse connector is situated at the top of the PS/2 Keyboard connector when the mainboard is laid into a desktop, as opposed to a minitower...
Hardware Reset Connector (RST) Attach the 2-pin hardware reset switch cable to the RST header. Pressing the reset switch causes the system to restart. HDD LED Connector (HDLED) Attach the connector cable from the IDE device LED to the 2-pin HDD LED header. The HDD LED lights up whenever an IDE device is active.
ATX Power On/Off Switch Connector (PON) The Power On/Off Switch is a momen- tary type switch used for turning on or off the system’s ATX power supply. Attach the connector cable from the Power Switch to the 2-pin PWON header on the mainboard.
Enhanced IDE Ports and Floppy Connectors The AV11 mainboard features two 40-pin dual-channel IDE device connec- tors (IDE1/IDE2) providing support for up to four IDE devices, such as CD- ROM and Hard Disk Drives (H.D.D.). This mainboard also includes one 34-pin floppy disk controller (FDC) to accommodate the Floppy Disk Drive (F.D.D.).
IR Connector (J4) If you have an Infrared device, this mainboard can implement IR transfer function. To enable the IR transfer function, follow these steps: IR Pin Assignments: 1=VCC 2=NC 3=IRRX 4=GND 5=IRTX Note: Please make sure to refer on board IR Pin Assignments to match your IR devices cable.
ATX Power Supply Connector (J5) Locate the 20-pin male header ATX power connector (J5) on your mainboard. Plug the power cable from the ATX power supply unit directly into J5 ATX power supply connector. Note 1: The ATX power connector is directional and will not go in unless the guides match perfectly.
Checking) and ECC (Error Checking and Correction) in the memory array. In EC mode, single and multiple bit error detection is provided. In ECC mode, when the memory is being read from DRAM, the AV14 provides both error checking and correction of the data.
