ECS K7VZA Bedienungsanleitung

Caution! When installing a CPU heatsink and

cooling fan make sure that you DO NOT

scratch the motherboard or any of the

surface-mount resistors with the clip of

the cooling fan. If the clip of the cooling

fan scrapes across the mainboard, you

may cause serious damage to both the

mainboard and the processor.

On most mainboards, there are small

surface-mount resistors near the

processor socket, which may be damaged

if the cooling fan is carelessly installed.

Avoid using cooling fans with sharp

edges on the fan casing and the clips.

Also, install the cooling fan in a well-lit

work area so that you can clearly see the

mainboard and processor socket.

Welcome

Congratulations on purchasing the K7VZA mainboard. The

K7VZA is an ATX mainboard that uses a 4-layer printed circuit

board and measures 305 mm x 220 mm. The mainboard has a

Socket 462 to accommodate AMD Athlon (K7) processors that

support frontside bus (FSB) speeds up to 200/266 MHz. The

K7VZA is installed with the VIA VT8363/VT8363A (NB) and

VT82C686A/VT82C686B (SB) chipset. The built-in 3D sound

features the AC 97 audio codec.

The mainboard delivers high-level performance with a 4xAGP

(Accelerated Graphics Port) slot and two PCI Bus Master Ultra

DMA (UDMA) ports that support up to four ATAPI (AT Attachment

Packet Interface) devices. The PCI IDE also supports PIO Mode 3

and 4, UDMA33/66/100 IDE, and an ATAPI CD-ROM.

Note: The K7VZA supports two VIA South Bridge chipsets—the

VT82C686A and VT82C686B. The VT82C686A supports

UDMA33/66; the VT82C686B supports up to UDMA100.

The mainboard accommodates PC 100/133 SDRAM

(Synchronous DRAM) or VCM (Virtual Channel Memory) up to

1.5 GB using three 3.3V unbuffered DIMM modules.

Other features include a built-in PCI 3D sound system that supports

the AC 97 audio codec. The mainboard has a full set of I/O ports,

such as dual channel PCI EIDE interfaces, a floppy controller, two

FIFO serial port connectors, an EPP/ECP-capable bi-directional

parallel port connector, a dual USB (Universal Serial Bus)

connector, and PS/2 keyboard and mouse connectors.

One AGP slot, five PCI local bus slots and an audio modem riser

(AMR) slot provide expandability for add-on peripheral cards.

Recommendations

This mainboard automatically determines the CPU clock

frequency and system bus frequency for the kind of processor

you install. You may be able to change these automatic settings

by making changes to the settings in the system Setup Utility.

We strongly recommend that you do not overclock the

mainboard to run processors or other components faster than

their rated speed.

Warning: Overclocking components can adversely affect the

reliability of the system and introduce errors into your system.

Overclocking can permanently damage the mainboard by generating

excess heat in components that are run beyond the rated limits.

Components on this mainboard can be damaged by discharges

of static electricity. Handle the board carefully holding it by the

edges. Don’t flex or stress the circuit board. Keep the board in

its static-proof packing until you are ready to install it. Follow the

static guidelines given at the beginning of Chapter 2.

Features

The key features of this mainboard are the wide range of

processors that can be installed, and the high level of integration,

which includes built-in audio, video, and communications.

High-end Processors

Functioning as a platform for a high-end PC, the K7VZA features

a Socket 462 accommodating AMD Athlon processors that

support 64/256 KB L2 OnChip cache, and 100/200 MHz or

133/266 MHz host bus/core speed.

The K7VZA supports 200/266 MHz frontside bus (FSB).

VIA Chipset

The VT8363/VT8363A and VT82C686A/VT82C686B chipsets

from VIA are featured in this board. These chipsets are designed

for high-end desktops and workstations and feature ATA-66/100,

4xAGP, and DRAM support.

The VT82C686A I/O chip makes a direct connection between

the graphics system, the IDE controller, and the PCI bus. It uses

Accelerated Hub Architecture to effectively double the bandwidth

between these components enabling more lifelike audio and

video. The VT82C686A I/O chip includes an integrated audio

codec controller (AC 97) that lets the processor more effectively

decode sound generated by the integrated audio system or the

integrated fax/modem.

Note: The K7VZA supports two VIA South Bridge chipsets—the

VT82C686A and VT82C686B. The VT82C686A supports

UDMA33/66; the VT82C686B supports up to UDMA100.
