While CPU overheat is detected, the system will automatically shutdown. Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it back again. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal 5. grease between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC system. The AGI [ASRock Graphics Interface] slot is a special design that only supports compatible AGP VGA cards. For the information of the compatible AGP VGA cards, please refer to the "Supported AGP VGA Card List for AGI Slot" on page 8 and page 9. For the proper installation of AGP VGA card, please refer to the installation guide on page 18. 6. For the information of the compatible PCI Express VGA cards, please refer to the "Supported PCI Express VGA Card List for AGI Express Slot (PCI Express x 4)" on page 10. For the proper installation of PCI Express VGA card, please refer to the installation guide on page 18. 7. 8. Power Management for USB 2.0 works fine under Microsoft® Windows® XP SP1 / 2000 SP4.
