Hardware Setup 1.2 Motherboard Layout 1.2.
1.2.
The motherboard and its component layouts illustrated in this chapter were based mainly on model “LG-95”, unless specifically stated. • Choose a chassis big enough to install this motherboard. • As some features for this motherboard are implemented by cabling connectors on the motherboard to indicators and switches or buttons on the chassis, make sure your chassis supports all the features required.
1.5 Checking Jumper Settings • • For a 2-pin jumper, plug the jumper cap on both pins will make it CLOSE (SHORT). Remove the jumper cap, or plug it on either pin (reserved for future use) will leave it at OPEN position. SHORT OPEN OPEN Pin 1~2 SHORT Pin 2~3 SHORT For 3-pin jumper, pin 1~2 or pin 2~3 can be shorted by plugging the jumper cap in. 1.5.
An onboard battery saves the CMOS memory to keep the BIOS information stays on even after disconnected your system with power source. Nevertheless, this backup battery exhausts after some five years. Once the error message like “CMOS BATTERY HAS FAILED” or “CMOS checksum error” displays on monitor, this backup battery is no longer functional and has to be renewed. To renew the backup battery: 1. Power off the system and disconnect with AC power source. 2. Remove the exhausted battery. 3.
1.6 Connecting Chassis Components 1.6.1 ATX Power Connectors These connectors provide the connection from an ATX power supply. As the plugs from the power supply fit in only one orientation, find the correct one and push firmly down into these connectors. ATX 24-Pin Power Connector: The power supply with 20-pin or 24-pin cables can both be connected to this 24-pin connector. Connect from pin-1 for either type.
This header is used for connecting switches and LED indicators on the chassis front panel. Watch the power LED pin position and orientation. The mark “+” align to the pin in the figure below stands for positive polarity for the LED connection. Please pay attention when connecting these headers. A wrong orientation will only cause the LED not lighting, but a wrong connection of the switches could cause system malfunction.
1.6.3 FAN Power Connectors These connectors each provide power to the cooling fans installed in your system. • CPU_FAN: CPU Fan Power Connector • SYS_FAN: System Fan Power Connector • CHS_FAN: Chassis Fan Power Connector ※ These fan connectors are not jumpers. DO NOT place jumper caps on these connectors.
※ DO NOT scratch the motherboard when installing hardware. An accidentally scratch of a tiny surface-mount component may seriously damage the motherboard. ※ In order to protect the contact pins, please pay attention to these notices: 1. A maximum 20 cycles of CPU installation is recommended. 2. Never touch the contact pins with fingers or any object. 3. Always put on the cap when the CPU is not in use. 1.7.
5. Use your left hand to hold the load plate, and use your right thumb to peel the cap off. 8. Place the heatsink and fan assembly onto the socket. Align the four fasteners toward the four mounting holes on the motherboard. The cap plays an important role in protecting contact pins. In order to prevent bent pin, PUT ON the cap after operation or testing. 9. Press each of the four fasteners down into the mounting holes. Rotate the fastener clock-wise to lock the heatsink and fan assembly into position. 6.
This motherboard supports two DDR or two DDR2 DIMMs. Note that DDR & DDR2 cannot be both applied at the same time. Apply either DDR or DDR2 memory modules only! ※ Usually there is no hardware or BIOS setup required after adding or removing memory modules, but you will have to clear the CMOS memory first if any memory module related problem occurs. To install system memory: 1. Power off the computer and unplug the AC power cord before installing or removing memory modules. 2.
1.8 Connecting Peripheral Devices 1.8.1 Floppy and IDE Disk Drive Connectors The FDC1 connector connects up to two floppy drives with a 34-wire, 2-connector floppy cable. Connect the single end at the longer length of ribbon cable to the FDC1 on the board, the two connectors on the other end to the floppy disk drives connector. Generally you need only one floppy disk drive in your system. ※ The red line on the ribbon cable must be aligned with pin-1 on both the FDC1 port and the floppy connector.
Each SATA connector serves as one single channel to connect one SATA device by SATA cable. To connect SATA device: 1. Attach either end of the signal cable to the SATA connector on motherboard. Attach the other end to SATA device. 2. Attach the SATA power cable to the SATA device and connect the other end from the power supply. ※ The motherboard in this illustration is served for DEMO only, may not be the same type or model as the one described in this user’s manual.
1.8.3 Additional USB 2.0 Port Headers Each header supports 2x additional USB 2.0 ports by connecting bracket or cable to the rear I/O panel or the front-mounted USB ports of your chassis. ※ Pin Pin Assignment Pin 1 VCC 2 Pin Assignment VCC 3 Data0 - 4 Data1 - 5 Data0 + 6 Data1 + 7 Ground 8 Ground 10 NC Make sure the connecting cable bears the same pin assignment. 1.8.4 Internal Audio Connectors This connector connects to the audio output of internal CD-ROM drive or add-on card.
Hardware Setup 1.8.5 Front Panel Audio Connection Header This header provides the connection to audio connector at front panel.
1.8.6 PCI and PCI Express X16, X1 Slots Install PCI Express X16 graphics card into slot “PCIEX16”. (For LG-95 only) Install PCI Express X1 card into slot “PCIEX1”. Install PCI cards into slots “PCI1” and/or “PCI2”.
Hardware Setup 1.9 Connecting Rear Panel I/O Devices The rear I/O part of this motherboard provides the following I/O ports: • Mouse: Connects to PS/2 mouse. • Keyboard: Connects to PS/2 keyboard. • LPT1: Connects to printer or other devices that support this communication protocol. • COM1: Connects to external modem, mouse or other devices that support this communication protocol. • VGA1: Connects to monitor input. • LAN1: Connects to Local Area Network.

2. BIOS Setup This motherboard provides a programmable EEPROM so that you can update the BIOS utility. The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is a program that deals with the basic level of communication between processor and peripherals. Use the BIOS Setup program only when installing motherboard, reconfiguring system, or prompted to “Run Setup”. This chapter explains the Setup Utility of BIOS utility.

3. Driver & Utility The “Driver & Utility CD” that came packed with this motherboard contains drivers, utilities and software applications required for its basic and advanced features. Place the “Driver & Utility CD” into the CD-ROM drive in your system. The following installation auto-run screen appears. If not, browse the root directory of the CD-ROM via the File Manager, and double click the “AUTORUN” file. Driver & Utility • [Drivers]: Click to enter the driver installation menu.

5. Appendix 5.1 Troubleshooting (How to Get Technical Support?) 5.1.1 Q & A Q: Do I need to clear the CMOS before I use a new motherboard to assemble my new computer system? A: Yes, we highly recommend that you clear the CMOS before installing a new motherboard. Please move the CMOS jumper from its default 1-2 position to 2-3 for a few seconds, and then back. When you boot up your system for the first time, follow the instructions in the user's manual to load the optimized defaults.
Q: How to get a quick response for my request on technical support? A: Please carry out a simple troubleshooting before sending “Technical Support Form”: System boot-up fails after the system had been assembled: Check the motherboard’s supporting specifications first to see if all the key components attached in your system can meet. To do so, you may: • Remove all the unnecessary add-on devices (except the CPU, VGA card, DRAM, and Power Supply), and then reboot.
• Memory configuration: Type in the memory configuration in BIOS setting. Example: Memory Timing: 2.5-3-3-7 @533MHz • Graphics information: Note Graphics card’s brand, model and driver version • Graphics card: Type in the brand and model name of your graphics card. Example: ATI RADEON X850 XT PE • Graphics driver version: Type in the driver version of your graphics card Example: Catalyst 5.12V • Power supply maker: Type in the brand and model name of your power supply unit.
