ECS K7VZA Manual page 12

Expansion Options
The K7VZA mainboard is pre-installed with features such as
audio that normally require add-in cards. The five 32-bit PCI
slots and the AMR slot provide plenty of expansion potential.
Integrated I/O
The mainboard has a full set of I/O ports and connectors. The
I/O template on the backplane includes two PS/2 ports for
mouse and keyboard, two serial ports, one parallel port, one
MIDI/game port, two USB ports, and audio jacks for microphone,
line-in and line-out. The mainboard includes two PCI IDE
channels and a floppy disk drive interface.
Programmable Firmware
The mainboard includes Award BIOS that allows BIOS setting of
CPU parameters. This fully programmable firmware enhances
the system features and allows users to set such items as power
management, CPU and memory timing, and modem wake-up
alarms. The firmware can also be used to set parameters for
different processor clock speeds so that you don't need to
change mainboard jumpers and switches.
This concludes Chapter 1. The next chapter covers installing
and building a working system.
