will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause

harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be

determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the

following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from

help.

Notice:

1. The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the

party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority

to operate the equipment.

. Shielded interface cables must be used in order to comply with

the emission limits.

Notice

This user’s manual contains detailed information about the system

board. If, in some cases, some information doesn’t match those

shown in the multilingual manual, the multilingual manual should

always be regarded as the most updated version. The multilingual

manual is included in the system board package.

To view the user’s manual, insert the CD into a CD-ROM drive. The

autorun screen (Main Board Utility CD) will appear. Click “User’s

Manual”.

Introduction

Expansion Slots

The system board is equipped with 1 AGP slot and 5 PCI slots.

AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port

AGP is an interface designed to support high performance 3D

graphics cards. It utilizes a dedicated pipeline to access system

memory for texturing, z-buffering and alpha blending. The universal

AGP slot supports AGP 8x with up to 133MB/sec. bandwidth and

AGP 4x with up to 1066MB/sec. bandwidth for 3D graphics

applications. AGP in this system board will deliver faster and better

graphics to your PC.

S/PDIF

S/PDIF is a standard audio file transfer format that transfers digital

audio signals to a device without having to be converted first to an

analog format. This prevents the quality of the audio signal from

degrading whenever it is converted to analog. S/PDIF is usually

found on digital audio equipment such as a DAT machine or audio

processing device. The S/PDIF connector on the system board sends

surround sound and 3D audio signal outputs to amplifiers and

speakers and to digital recording devices like CD recorders.

6-channel Audio

The 4-channel audio connector which supports four audio output

signals: center channel, subwoofer, rear right channel and rear left

channel; together with the line-in and mic-in jacks (at the rear panel)

support 6-channel audio output.

Introduction

IrDA Interface

The system board is equipped with an IrDA connector for wireless

connectivity between your computer and peripheral devices. The

IRDA (Infrared Data Association) specification supports data

transfers of 115K baud at a distance of 1 meter.

USB Ports

The system board supports USB .0 and USB 1.1. USB 1.1

supports 1 Mb/second bandwidth while USB .0 supports 480Mb/

second bandwidth providing a marked improvement in device

transfer speeds between your computer and a wide range of

simultaneously accessible external Plug and Play peripherals.

BIOS

• Award BIOS, Windows® 98/ 000/ME/XP Plug and Play

compatible

• Supports SCSI sequential boot-up

• Flash EPROM for easy BIOS upgrades

• Supports DMI .0 function

• Mbit flash memory

Desktop Management Interface (DMI

The system board comes with a DMI .0 built into the BIOS. The

DMI utility in the BIOS automatically records various information

about your system configuration and stores these information in the

DMI pool, which is a part of the system board's Plug and Play

BIOS. DMI, along with the appropriately networked software, is

designed to make inventory, maintenance and troubleshooting of

computer systems easier. Refer to chapter 4 for instructions on using

the DMI utility.
