Be sure to disconnect the power cable from the power source before performing any work on your mainboard, i. e. installing a CPU, memory module, changing a jumper setting, etc. Not doing so may result in electrical shock! 2-1 Introduction to Jumpers Jumpers are used to select between various operating modes. A jumper consists of a row of gold colored pins that protrude from the surface of the mainboard. It is important not to confuse jumpers with connectors or headers. Putting jumper caps on anything that is not a jumper may result in damaging your mainboard. Please refer to Section 1-3, Mainboard Layout, for the location of jumpers on your mainboard. As indicated in Figure 2-1 below, a cap is used to cover the pins of a jumper, resulting in shorting those pins that it covers. If the cap is removed from the top of the pins, the jumper is left "open." The number 1 shown both in the diagram below and in all multiple pin jumper and header diagrams in this manual indicates the pin designated with the number 1. The numbering of the remaining pins follows in sequence. Pins 1 Cap Setting 1 Cap Style 2 A 3-pin jumper A cap over pin 1 and pin 2 shorts these pins Figure 2-1 7 Chapter 2 2-2 Installing a CPU in a Socket 370 The Intel Socket 370, designed for the Celeron and Coppermine processors, has been incorporated as a standard mainboard specification.To insert your CPU into Socket 370 please do the following: 1. Locate a small dot marked on the top surface of the CPU close to one if it's corners. The same corner will also be cut off, leaving a noticeable notch in the CPU's corner. These markings indicate Pin 1 of the CPU. 2. Pull up the lever of Socket 370 so that it is perpendicular with the surface of the mainboard. Gently insert the CPU with Pin 1 at the same corner of Socket 370 that contains the end of the lever. Allow the the weight of the CPU to push itself into place. Do not apply extra pressure as doing so may result in damaging your CPU. Snap the lever back into place. Installing a heat sink with cooling fan is necessary for proper heat dissipation from your CPU. Failing to install these items may result in overheating and possible burn-out of your CPU. 2-3 Setting Your CPU's Parameters This board support plug and play CPU configuration, if you install a CPU on this mainboard, the board will automatically detect and set CPU parameters. It is no longer necessary to make many jumper settings as on conventional mainboards. 1. After installing all your hardware into your PC system, turn on your system's power. Enter the CMOS Setup Utility by pressing the Delete key when your BIOS identification screen appears. 2. Move the cursor to Frequency/Voltage Control Setup menu and press Enter. Find the CPU bus frequency at the left hand side of the BIOS screen. Commands for operating the cursor in BIOS are found at the Bottom right of the BIOS screen. 3. Set the CPU bus frequency according to your processor's specifications. 4. Press Esc to return to the CMOS Setup Utility, press F10 to Save and Exit Setup and choose 'Y' to confirm. The system will automatically reboot and during startup you will see the correct CPU type shown on the screen. You do not need to make voltage settings because SeePU automatically sets your CPU voltage. 8 Hardware Setup Overclocking Operating a CPU at a higher frequency than it's specification allows is called overclocking. If the CPU frequency is set at a higher frequency than it's specification allows, it may or may not run at that frequency, depending on the quality of your CPU and the extent to which the frequency has been overset. The mainboard manufacturer highly discourages overclocking as it may result in data loss, CPU burnout, system failure, etc. Many Intel processors are frequency locked processors and are not able to perform overclocking. Regardless of whether the processor is a frequency locked, overclocking may cause some processors to hang when turning on the system. When the processor hangs, the screen remains blank and the system does not boot. To solve this problem, do the following. 1. Turn off the computer and then press and hold the Home key on your keyboard 2. Turn on your computer, wait for five seconds and then release the Home key. 3. Enter BIOS and reconfigure your CPU parameters as described in this section. 9 Chapter 2 CNR, JP8 JP7 CN4, CN5, CN6, JP6 JP2, JP3 JP4, JP5, COM1, CN8, LTI-II FAN1, FAN2 JP1, JP12 CN10 Mouse JP11 Printer Port JP14, JP15, JP16 Game Port Keyboard USB 0/1 COM1 VGA Line-out Line-in Mic-in 10 Hardware Setup JP & CN No. JP1 JP2/JP3 JP4 Function PS/2 keyboard Power On Funtion Audio Line out/ Speaker out Smart Bus Connector JumperSetting/Connector 1-2: Disable (default); 2-3: Enable 1-2: Line out (default); 2-3: Speaker out Page 15 15 15 JP5 Chassis Intrusion Dectection 16 JP6 Infrared / Consumer Infrared 16 JP7 JP8 JP11 JP12 JP14/JP15 Onboard Audio AC'97 CODEC selector (optional) Clear CMOS Data USB Power On Function System Bus Frequency 1-2: Enable (default); 2-3: Disable 1-2: CODEC on board (default); 2-3: CODEC on CNR 1-2: Normal(default); 2-3: Enable (Clear) 1-2: Disable; 2-3: Enable (default) JP14 Auto(default) 1 ~ 2 100MHz 133MHz 1~2 JP15 1~2 2~3 16 16 17 17 17 2 ~ 3 Open 1-2: Boot BIOS select (default) JP16 Optional Boot BIOS select 2-3: BIOS1(Power-on only)/BIOS2(Power-on+Reset) CN4 AUX_IN Connector GND L R 18 19 CN5 CD_IN Connector 1 19 CN6 Mono-in/out Connector 19 CN7 COM2 CN8 WOL (Wake on LAN) Over-ride Power Button Connector Keyboard Lock & Power Indicator LED Connector Green Switch Connector/ Green LED Connector 20 CN10 System Reset Switch Connector Speaker Connector IDE Activity LED Connector Turbo LED Connector 13 CN11 FAN1/FAN2 LTI-II PS/2 Ports(CN2) USB Ports(CN3) ATX Power Supply Connector CPU/System cooling Fan Connector LTI-II Riser PS/2 Mouse and Keyboard Ports USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports 12 20 20 18 18 11 Chapter 2 2-4 Connector and Jumper Settings Connectors are used to link the system board with other parts of the system, including the power supply, the keyboard, and the various controllers on the front panel of the system case. The power supply connector is the last connection to be made while installing a mainboard. Before connecting the power supply, please make sure it is not connected to the power source. ATX Power Supply Connector (CN11) The power cord leading from the system's power supply to the external power source must be the very last part connected when assembling a system. To support this function, a switching power supply with a minimum of 750mA 5VSB is required. The ATX power supply provides a single 20-pin connector interface which incorporates standard +/ -5V, +/-12V, optional 3.3V and Soft-power signals. The Soft-power signal, a 5V trickle supply is continuously supplied when AC power is available. When the system is in the Soft-Off mode, this trickle supply maintains the system in it's minimum power state. Power-On By Modem While in Soft-off state, if an external modem ring-up signal occurs, the system wakes up and can be remotely accessed. You may enable this function in BIOS's Power Management Setup menu. Poly-fuse Over Current Protection The poly-fuse protects the system from dangerous voltages the system might be exposed to via the keyboard or USB connectors. In case of such exposure, the polyfuse will immediately be disconnected from the circuit, just like a normal fuse. After being disconnected for a certain period of time, the poly-fuse will return to its normal state, after which the keyboard or USB can function properly again. Unlike conventional fuses, the poly-fuse does not have to be replaced, relieving the user wasted time and inconvenience. 12 Hardware Setup Front Panel Connector Set (CN10) A through F A. Over-ride Power Button Connector The power button on the ATX chassis can be used as a normal power switch as well as a device to activate Advanced Power Management Suspend mode. This mode is used for saving electricity when the computer is not in use for long periods of time. The Soft-OFF by PWR-BTTN function in BIOS's Power Management Setup menu must be set to "Delay 4 Sec." to activate this function. When the Soft-OFF by PWR-BTTN function is enabled, pushing the power button rapidly will switch the system to Suspend mode. Any occurrence of external activities such as pressing a key on the keyboard or moving the mouse will bring the system back to Full-On. Pushing the button while in Full-On mode for more than 4 seconds will switch the system completely off. See Over-ride Power Button Operation diagram. B. Power Indicator LED Connector The power indicator LED shows the system's power status. It is important to pay attention to the correct cables and pin orientation (i.e., not to reverse the order of these two connectors.) Over-ride Power Button Operation Pin 1 Power Indicator LED Definition +5V DC No Connection Ground 2 3 Software Power-Off Control This mainboard can be powered down using the Windows 95/98 Software Power-Off function. To power down your computer, click the START button on the Windows 95/98 task bar. Select "Shut Down The Computer" and the system turns off. The message "It is now safe to turn off your computer" will not be shown when using this function. 13 Chapter 2 C. Green Switch/Green LED Connector Some ATX cases provide a Green switch which is used to put the system in Suspend mode. In Suspend mode, the power supply to the system is reduced to a trickle, the CPU clock is stopped, and the CPU core is in it's minimum power state. The system is woken up whenever the keyboard or mouse is touched. The system resumes in different ways as defined by Power Management Setup screen in BIOS. D. System Reset Switch Connector This connector should be connected to the reset switch on the front panel of the system case. The reset switch allows you to restart the system without turning the power off. Pin 1 2 Definition System GND E. Speaker Connector Pin 1 2 3 4 Definition Speaker Signal No Connection No Connection +5V DC F. IDE Activity LED Connector The IDE activity LED lights up whenever the system reads/writes to the IDE devices. G. Turbo LED Connector This mainboard does not have a Turbo/De-turbo speed modes. So the turbo LED will always light. Blinking LED in Suspend Mode While in Suspend mode, the LED light on the front panel of your computer will flash. Suspend mode is entered by pressing the Override Power Button, pushing the Green button on your ATX case, or enabling the Power Management and Suspend Mode options in BIOS's Power Management menu. 14 Hardware Setup PS/2 Keyboard Power On Function (JP1) 1 Disabled 1 Enabled This board is able to be turned on by the keyboard. To use this function, enable the Power On Function option in BIOS's Integrated Peripherals screen (See section 3-8). You must also set this jumper's cap to pins 2-3 to use this function.

Pin 1 2 3 4 5 6 Definition Data No Connection Ground + 5V (fused) Clock No Connection USB Ports(CN3) If you want to use a USB keyboard, you must enable the USB keyboard support function in BIOS's Integrated Peripherals menu. USB is an open industry standard, providing a simple and inexpensive way to connect up to 125 devices to a single computer port. Keyboards, mice, tablets, digitizers, scanners, bar-code readers, modems, printers and many more can all be used at the same time. This board contains a USB Host controller and includes a root hub with two USB ports. Two USB peripherals or hub devices are able to be connected. 18 Hardware Setup Auxiliary CD-ROM Audio-in Connector (CN4) Use the auxiliary audio cable enclosed with your CD-ROM disk drive to connect the CD-ROM to your mainboard. This will enable your CD-ROM's audio function. CD-ROM Audio-in Connector (CN5) Use the audio cable enclosed with your CD-ROM disk drive to connect the CD-ROM to your mainboard. This will enable your CD-ROM's audio function. GND L 1 R Optional Audio Mono -in/out Connector (CN6) Use the mono audio cable enclosed with your CDROM disk drive to connect the CD-ROM to your mainboard. This will enable mono audio in/out function. 19 Chapter 2 WOL (Wake-on-LAN) Connector (CN8) Enable the Wake Up On LAN selection in BIOS's Power Management Menu to use this function. The capability to remotely manage PCs on a network is a significant factor in reducing administrative and ownership costs. Magic Packet technology is designed to give WOL (Wake-onLAN) capability to the LAN controller. When a PC capable of receiving wake up command goes to sleep, the Magic Packet mode in the LAN controller is enabled. When the LAN controller receives a Magic Packet frame, the LAN controller will wake up the PC. This header is used to connect an add-in NIC (Network Interface Card) which gives WOL capability to the mainboard. CPU/System Cooling Fan Connectors (FAN1/FAN2) These added connectors allow the fan to draw their power from the mainboard instead of the disk drive connector. The board's management extension hardware is able to detect the CPU and system fan speed in rpm (revolutions per minute). These connectors supports 3-pin cooling fans with minimum of 3500 RPM. The wiring and plug may vary depending on the manufacturer. On standard fans, the red is positive (+12V), the black is ground, and the yellow wire is the rotation signal. LTI-II Riser (LTI1) Optional This connector is to be connected to an optional TV/LCD/2nd CRT Output adapter card. 20 Hardware Setup 2-5 Main Memory Configuration The DRAM memory system consists of three banks and the memory size ranges from 16~512 MBytes. It does not matter which bank you want to install first. DRAM Specifications FSB Freq. (MHz) 66 100 133 133 System Memory Bus Freq. (MHz) 100 100 100 133 Display Cache interface Freq. (MHz) 133 or DVMT 133 or DVMT 133 or DVMT Internal Graphics Disable DIMM type : 3.3V, unbuffered, registered, 64/72-bit SDRAM with SPD* Module size: Single/double-side 16/32/64/128/256 MBytes Parity : Either parity or non-parity This mainboard supports up to 2 double sided or 3 single sided DIMMs at 133MHz system memory bus. This mainboard supports 3.3v, unbuffered, 4-clock, SDRAM DIMM only. Buffered, 5V, or 2-clock SDRAM DIMMs should not be used. Due to loading anomalies, using DIMM with an 'n x 4' DRAM base on this mainboard is not recommended. For example, a DIMM that uses sixteen 16Mb x 4 devices should not be used. SPD (Serial Presence Detect) This is an EPROM that contains speed and design information about the memory module. The mainboard queries the module and makes adjustments to system operation based on what it finds. ECC DRAM Capability This mainboard can be configured to support ECC (Error Check and Correct) function when utilizing parity DIMM modules. To utilize the chipset's ECC features, you must use a 72-bit DIMM module.These modules are automatically detected during bootup. However, the user must configure the DRAM Data Integrity Mode to "ECC" in BIOS's SeePU&Chipset Features Setup menu to enable the ECC function. ECC detects double bit errors and detects and corrects single bit memory errors on the fly without user intervention. Errors may be generated by a defective memory module, conflicting memory speeds between different banks, DMA, etc. 21 Chapter 2 Memo 22 Award BIOS Setup Program Chapter 3 3 Award BIOS Setup Program Award's BIOS ROM has a built-in setup program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration.
