Universal Serial Bus Connectors
The G586IPC system board is equipped with two connectors, at loca-
tions JP1 and JP2 on the system board, for external USB ports. USB
allows data exchange between your computer and a wide range of
simultaneously accessible peripherals.
Connecting the USB Ports
As an option, one card-edge bracket mounted with two USB port cables
may be provided with the system board. The ends of the cables are
attached to a connector. Mount the card-edge bracket to the system
chassis.
Connect the cable to JP1 and JP2 on the system board. The USB port
cables can be inserted only if pin 1 of the cable (red wire) is aligned
with pin 1 of JP1 and JP2. Pin 5 of JP2 has been removed and the hole
in the USB cable connector, which corresponds to pin 5, has been
plugged to prevent incorrectly inserting the connector.
Note:
Make sure “USB Controller” in the Integrated Peripherals setup of the
Award BIOS is Enabled.
Using G586IPC with CD-ROM Drives
If you encountered problems while using an ATAPI CD-ROM drive that
is set in Master mode, please set the CD-ROM drive to Slave mode.
Some ATAPI CD-ROMs may not be recognized and cannot be used if
incorrectly set in Master mode.
