CHAPTER 2 JUMPER SETTINGS JUMPERS PRESENTATION Pins 1 and 2 are shorted with a jumper cap. Pins 2 and 3 are shorted with a jumper cap. The jumper is shorted when the jumper cap is placed over the two pins of the jumper. The jumper is open when the jumper cap is removed from jumper.
Jumper Settings CPU SPEED The table below summaries the CPU frequency and settings of each jumper of the motherboard. CPU Type Freq. Bus Freq. Bus Ratio 300MHz 4.5x 333MHz 5.0x 366MHz 5.5x 400MHz 6.0x PPGA S370 Celeron 66MHz 433MHz 6.5x 466MHz 7.0x 500MHz...
Jumper Settings MEMORY CONFIGUARTION The mainboard lets user upgrade system memory via DIMM sockets on the mainboard. On board memory is located in four banks: Bank 0 - 3. Two DIMM sockets are provided for EDO DRAM or Synchronous DRAM. Table 6 provides the typical memory configurations supported by the mainboard.
CHAPTER 3 CONNECTOR CONFIGURATION Once the mainboard has been fastened into system case, the next step is to connect the internal cables. The internal cables are wire leads with plastic female connectors that attach to the connectors. The mainboard connectors have varying numbers of pins and are the points of contact between the mainboard and other parts of the computer.
Chapter 3 U1 – SOCKET370 FOR CELERON CPU U1 is the Socket370 for Celeron CPU. Fig. 4 Socket370 for Celeron CPU J1 – MULTIPLE FUNCTION JUMPER J1 is a front panel multi-function jumper includes speaker, reset, keylock, harddisk, LED, GREEN LED and power button (suspend switch). The pin definition is following figure.
Connector Configuration J5 - ATX POWER SUPPLY CONNECTOR J5 is a 2x10 pin male connector. Plug the power connector of the ATX power supply into the connector. Fig. 6 ATX Power Supply Connector J6 - FLOPPY DRIVE CONTROLLER This connector supports the floppy drive ribbon cable. After connecting the single end to the board, connect the two plugs on the other end to the floppy drive.
Chapter 3 Fig. 7 Customer IR Connector J16 – CD-ROM AUDIO CONNECTOR (MISUMI/ PANASONIC) J16 is a four-pin connector, which is used to connect with the Panasonic or Misumi CD-ROM audio output. The pin definition is as following: Fig. 8 CD-ROM Audio Connector J17 –...

Chapter 6 If you do not wish to save the old BIOS: Please type “N”, and then press the ENTER key. Then you will be request to answer: “Are You Sure to Program?” Answer “N” if you do not want to program, and then it will exit. To save the old BIOS: Please respond “Y”, and then press the ENTER key.
Flash and DMI Utility DESKTOP MANAGEMENT INTERFACE (DMI) OVERVIEW This motherboard can support DMI within the BIOS level. DMI is able to auto- detect and record information pertinent to a computer’s system such as the CPU type, CPU speed, and internal/external frequencies, and memory size. The onboard BIOS will detect as many system information as possible and store those collected information in a 4KB block in the motherboard’s flash EPROM and allow the DMI to retrieve data from this database.
