The AX45 / AX45-V is Intel® Socket 478 motherboard (M/B) based on the ATX form factor featuring the SIS 645 / SIS 961 chipset. As high performance chipset built in the M/B, the AX45 / AX45-V motherboard can support Intel® Socket 478 Pentium® 4 (Willamette / Northwood) and 400 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB) clock. In the AGP performance, it has one AGP slot and supports AGP 4X mode and pipelined spilt-transaction long burst transfer up to 1056MB/sec. According to different customer's requirements, 128, 256, 512Mb and 1GB DDR SDRAM DIMM modules can be applied to the motherboard and the maximum memory size can be up to 3 GB. The onboard IDE controller supports Ultra DMA 33/66/100 mode and the transfer rate up to 100MB/s. Further flexibility can be achieved by taking advantage of the Communication and Network Riser (CNR) card option that allows audio, modem, and/or LAN configuration on a single baseboard design. More than that, on the strength of Realtek 8100BL LAN controller on board, which is an highly-integrated Platform LAN Connect device, it provides 10/100M bps Ethernet for office and home use (Optional). Besides, the AX45 / AX45-V has a RealTek ALC201A AC97 CODEC chipset onboard providing high performance and magic surround stereo sound to let people enjoy working with it. Now, let's enjoy all features from AOpen AX45 / AX45-V motherboard. 10 AX45 / AX45-V Feature Highlight CPU Online Manual Supports Intel® Socket 478 Pentium® 4 (Willamette / Northwood) 1.3GHz~2.4GHz+ with 400MHz Front Side Bus (FSB) designed for Socket 478 technology. Chipset The motherboard is equipped with SIS 645 / 961 chipset. SIS 645 chipset consists of host interface Controller and integrated high performance DDR SDRAM Host system controller, which provide superior performance between the CPU, SDRAM, AGP bus, and delivering 533MB/s Bandwidth. In coordination with SIS 645, the SIS 961 chipset integrated fast Ethernet/Home networking controller, Audio/Modem Controller with AC'97 interface and advanced power management, which can strongly enhance the system performance. Expansion Slots Including six 32-bit/33MHz PCI, one CNR and one AGP 1x2x4X slots. The PCI local bus throughput can be up to 132MB/s. The Communication & Nectworking Riser (CNR) slot provided from AX45 / AX45-V can support CNR interface for a Modem/Audio card. The Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) specification provides a new level of video display sophistication and speed. The AGP video cards support data transfer rate up to 1056MB/s. AX45 / AX45-V motherboard includes one AGP expansion slot for a bus mastering AGP graphic card. For AD and SBA signaling, AX45 / AX45-V motherboard can support 4X mode. Of six PCI slots provided, all of them are master PCI slots with arbitration and decoding for all integrated functions and LPC bus. 11 AX45 / AX45-V Memory Online Manual With SIS 645 / 961 chipset, the AX45 / AX45-V can support Double-Data-Rate (DDR) SDRAM. The DDR SDRAM interface allows zero wait state bursting between the SDRAM and the data buffers at 66/100/133MHz. The six banks of DDR SDRAM can be composed of an arbitrary mixture of 1M/2M4M/8M/16M/32M/64Mx1GB DDR SDRAM and maximum up to 3 GB. LAN Port (Optional) On the strength of Realtek 8100BL LAN controller on board, which is an highly-integrated Platform LAN Connect device, it provides 10/100 Mbps Ethernet for office and home use. Ultra DMA 33/66/100 Bus Mater IDE Comes with an on-board PCI Bus Master IDE controller with two connectors that supports four IDE devices in two channels, supports Ultra DMA 33/66/100, PIO Modes 3 and 4 and Bus Master IDE DMA Mode 5, and supports Enhanced IDE devices. On-board AC'97 Sound AX45 / AX45-V uses the RealTek ALC201A AC97 sound chip. This on-board audio includes a complete audio recording and playback system. Six USB Connectors Provides three ports, six USB connectors for USB interface devices, such as mouse, keyboard, modem, scanner, etc. 12 AX45 / AX45-V Dr. LED (Upgrade Optional) Online Manual The Dr. LED has 8 LEDs on this AX45 / AX45-V M/B to easily show what kind of problems you may encounter. Power Management/Plug and Play Supports the power management function that confirms to the power-saving standards of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Energy Star program. It also offers Plug-and-Play, which helps save users from configuration problems, thus making the system much user-friendlier. Hardware Monitoring Management Supports CPU or system fans status, temperature and voltage monitoring and alert, through the on-board hardware monitor module. Enhanced ACPI Fully implement the ACPI standard for Windows® 98/ME/2000 series compatibility, and supports Soft-Off, STR (Suspend to RAM, S3), STD (Suspend to Disk, S4) features. Super Multi-I/O Provides two high-speed UART compatible serial ports and one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. UART can also be directed from COM1 to the Infrared Module for the wireless connections. 13 AX45 / AX45-V Quick Installation Procedure This page gives you a quick procedure on how to install your system.

Online Manual When you read this online manual and start to assemble your computer system, you may find some of functions are called "Optional", and some are called "Upgrade Optional". Though all AOpen motherboards include many amazing and powerful features, in some situations, these powerful features are not used to every user. Hence, we changed some key features as "Optional" for you to choose. Some optional functions that can be upgraded by users, we call them "Upgrade Optional". As for those optional functions that can't be upgraded by ourselves, we call them "Optional". If needed, you can contact our local distributors or resellers for purchasing "Upgrade Optional" components, and again you can visit AOpen official web site: www.aopen.com for more detail information. 18 AX45 / AX45-V JP14 Clear CMOS Data You can clear CMOS to restore system default setting. To clear the CMOS, follow the procedure below. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Turn off the system and unplug the AC power. Remove ATX power cable from connector PWR2. Locate JP14 and short pins 2-3 for a few seconds. Return JP14 to its normal setting by shorting pin 1 & pin 2. Connect ATX power cable back to connector PWR2. Online Manual Pin 1 1 Normal (default) 1 Clear CMOS Tip: When should I Clear CMOS? 1. Boot fail because of overclocking... 2. Forget password... 3. Troubleshooting... 19 AX45 / AX45-V CPU Installation Online Manual This motherboard supports Intel® Pentium 4 Socket 478 series CPU (Willamette / Northwood). Be careful of CPU orientation when you plug it into CPU socket. 1. Pull up the CPU socket lever and up to 90-degree angle. 2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for a black dot or cut edge on the CPU upper interface. Match Pin 1 and cut edge, then insert the CPU into the socket.
