This section explains in detail how to change your motherboard’s function settings

through the use of switches and/or jumpers.

WARNING! Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate

Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage from static electric-

ity, you should follow some precautions whenever you work on your computer.

1. Unplug your computer when working on the inside.

2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do

not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a

metal object, such as the power supply case.

3. Hold components by the edges and try not to touch the IC chips, leads or

connectors, or other components.

4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with

the component whenever the components are separated from the system.

Disable the onboard audio CODEC if you are using an ISA or PCI audio card on any of the expansion slots or a primary AMR on the AMR slot. If using an ISA or PCI audio expansion card, Onboard AC’97 Audio Controller in I/O Device Configuration of the BIOS must also be disabled.

This allows the selection of the CPU’s External frequency. The CPU external frequency multiplied by the Frequency Multiple equals the CPU’s Internal frequency (the advertised CPU speed). The CPU is running at the same speed as the SDRAM. NOTE: The motherboard only supports PC100 (100MHz) DIMMs for system memory.

The RAM data containing the password information is powered by the onboard button cell battery.
