    Setting Jumpers In this manual, the terms “closed” and “on” are used when referring to jumpers (or jumper pins) that are active; “open” and “off” are used when referring to jumpers (or jumper pins) that are inactive. Jumpers and pins are connected by slipping the blue plastic jumper connector overtop of two adjacent jumper pins.

    Chapter 3 Onboard Resource Settings Cache Memory Penitum II processors have the L2 (Level 2) cache built into their architecture, so there is no need for an L2 cache on the motherboard. The Pentium II processor has a physical L2 cache size of 512KB and a cacheable memory area of 512MB.
  • Page 35: Frequently Asked Questions

    Frequently Asked Questions Q: Why don’t I get a display after I put in my old DIMM module? A: The 440BX chipset requires the memory manufacturer to program an EEPROM chip with SPD (Serial Presence Detection) on the module in order for the BIOS to program the 440BX’s timing registers properly.

Currently, the AGP supports 1X and 2X modes, which yield bandwidths of 264MB/s (at 33MHz bus speed) and 533MB/s (at 66MHz bus speed), respectively. Compare this with the mere 132MB/s (at 33MHz bus speed) that you get with the PCI bus.
