Advanced Features 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. When the power button is pressed for longer than 4 seconds, the system enters the Soft-Off mode.
3 HARDWARE INSTALLATION This section outlines how to install and configure your AV11 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 instal- lation 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 of the following cases: 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 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 AV11 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 connect jumper pins on the mainboard. Pin #1 is located on the bottom or on the left when holding the mainboard with the keyboard connector or other back-panel connectors opposite from you, as shown below.
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 installation. The following list will help you identify jumpers, slots, and connectors along with their assigned functions: CPU/Memory/Expansion Slots Socket370: CPU Socket for PGA 370 Celeron processors DIM4/5/6 : Three DIMM Sockets for 8,16,32,64,128,256MB 3.3V...

Set Keyboard & PS/2 Mouse Power-On (JP3) AV11 mainboard provides an easy power-on by 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 >...
Intel Celeron CPU specification. We strongly advise novice users not to modify the original setting of the CPU host frequency, for setting an incor- rect value may damage your CPU. For experienced users, the AV11 mainboard provides an alternative Hard- Configure function to adjust your CPU host frequency manually. Note:...
CPU Clock Ratio Setting (JP9) AV11 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 Ration manually.
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.
USB1/USB2 Port Connectors Two female connectors USB1/USB2 share the same USB (Universal Serial Bus) bracket at the rear panel of your mainboard. Plug each USB device jack USB1 & USB2 into an available USB1/USB2 connector. COM1 / COM2 Connector This mainboard can accommodate two serial device on COM1/COM2 .
Green LED Connector (GLED ) The Green LED (GLED) indicates that the system is currently in one of the power savings mode (Doze/Standby/Suspend). When the system resumes to normal operation, mode, the Green LED will go off. Attach a 2-pin Green LED cable to GLED header.
4-pin speaker connector (SPK). 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.).
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 making sure that pin#1 is properly positioned.
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=VCC 3=IRRX 4=GND 5=IRTX Step 1. Attach the 5-pin infrared device cable to J4 connector. (Refer to the above diagram for IR pin assignment.) Step 2.
SB-Link Connector (JP10) The main board provides a 2x3 pin SB- Link header accepts the Creative CT4600 series PCI sound cards with PCI solution to connect the legacy Sound Blaster com- patible audio to the PCI bus. SB-Link Pin Assignments: 1=GNT#A 2=GND 3=Empty...
3.3 System Memory Configuration The AV11 mainboard has three 168-pin DIMM sockets that allow you to install from 16MB up to 768MB of system memory with PC66/100/133 SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM). Each DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) socket can accommodate 16MB, 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, and 256MB 3.3V single or double side SDRAM modules.
