Page 12: Setting The Jumpers
INSTALLATION Setting the Jumpers Jumpers are used on this mainboard to select various settings and features. A 2-pin jumper has two settings: Open and Short (or Closed). The jumper is closed by placing the Jumper Cap across the two pins, thereby connecting them. 3-pin jumpers can be set to pins 1-2 or 2-3 connected. - Page 13 INSTALLATION Setting the Bus Clock Override Jumper (JP2) Setting the Bus Clock Override Jumper to Enabled overrides the CPU’s default Bus Clock and set it at 100 MHz. • Over-clocking may cause serious system damage. Locking/Unlocking the Flash BIOS (JP3) To re-program the mainboard BIOS, short this jumper to unlock the flash BIOS.
- Page 14 INSTALLATION Onboard AC97 Audio Selection Jumper (JP4) Set this jumper to Enabled if you are using the onboard AC97 audio features. Also make sure the “AC97 Audio” option is Enabled (default) in the Integrated Peripherals of the BIOS. (Please refer to the BIOS, Driver & Utility Guide.) Installation Guide...
- Page 15 INSTALLATION Clear CMOS (JP5) If you have set the password, either to protect the BIOS configuration or to restrict access to the computer, the password is stored in CMOS RAM. If you forget the password, the CMOS can be cleared by setting this jumper to Clear CMOS. In case there is a CMOS error or improper CPU setting through the mainboard’s BIOS that causes boot failure, the CMOS must cleared by setting this jumper to Clear CMOS to allow the system to boot.

Page 16: Connections
INSTALLATION Connections Cooling Fans These connectors are small 3- pin Header Connectors that provide 12-Volt power for CPU and chassis cooling fans. Plug cable connector. Pin-2 corresponds to the RED power lead as shown: Power Supply Connector This mainboard features an ATX-style Power Supply Connector. This connector is keyed to prevent connection in the wrong direction. - Page 17 INSTALLATION System Function Connector Block (CN4) Pins [3 & 5] Power LED lead – Pins 3 and 5 connect to the power LED lead from the system’s case. In case you case comes with a five-pin keylock & power LED connector, use the connector block marked as Keylock.
- Page 18 INSTALLATION Soft Power Switch (CN2) Connects to the Power Switch featured on ATX case designs. This switch must be hooked up before the system can be powered on, unlike traditional “Baby-AT” designs where the power switch is located on the Power Supply itself. Note: Under the following two conditions, you have to press and hold the switch for more than 4 seconds to power off your system, regardless of the “Soft-Off by PWR-BTTN”...
- Page 19 INSTALLATION IrDA-Compliant Infrared Module Connector The IrDA connector bracket hooks directly to this connector on the mainboard. This connector provides support for the optional wireless transmitting and receiving infrared module. You must first configure through the BIOS setup where UART2 is directed, COM2 or IrDA. Installation Guide...
- Page 20 INSTALLATION Wake-up On LAN Connector (CN10) The Wake-up On LAN function will allow the network to wake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC. However, if your system is in the Suspend mode, you can wake-up the system only through an IRQ or DMA interrupt. To use the Wake-up On LAN function, you may also have to enable the related option in the mainboard BIOS.
- Page 21 INSTALLATION Serial and Parallel Ports A 25-pin D-Sub header is provided on the back panel for a multi-mode bi- directional parallel port. One 9-pin D-Sub headers are also provided on the back panel for Serial ports. For the second serial port, plug the 10-pin cable of the serial port bracket to the COM2 connector on the mainboard.
- Page 22 INSTALLATION Digital Video Out This is a manufacturer’s proprietary bus that connects to the cable from optional TV-Out or Panel-Link daughter board. This bus support traditional TVs as well as the new digital flat panel displays. USB Connectors These two connectors permit connection of two USB peripheral devices directly to the system without an external hub.
- Page 23 INSTALLATION SB-Link Connect SB-Link cable on the Creative Sound Blaster Card to this connector.
