3. Installation Ready To Turn On Power Check Again Is the CPU installed exactly and firmly into the socket (Sec. 3.3)? Are all the DRAM modules installed properly (Sec. 3.4)? Did you insert the expansion card (VGA, Sound… etc.) already (Sec. 3.5)? Are you sure that all the connectors (described in Sec 3.6) have been connected to their variable devices (Sec.
4. BIOS Setup The motherboard uses AMIBIOS, which is stored in a Flash EEPROM and can be upgraded by a floppy disk-based program. The BIOS has a built- in Setup Program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration settings. The settings are then stored in a dedicated battery-backed memory, called CMOS RAM that retains the information when the power is turned off.
The best advice is to alter only settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular, do not change settings in the Chipset screen without a good reason. BCM Advanced Research Inc. or your system manufacturer for the best performance and reliability has carefully chosen the Chipset defaults.
