NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 5.25" SBC 4.1 Anti-static Precautions WARNING: Failure to take ESD precautions during installation may result in permanent damage to the product and severe injury to the user. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.
NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 5.25" SBC 4.2 Installation Considerations NOTE: The following installation notices and installation considerations should be read and understood before the NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 and injury to the person installing the motherboard.
NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 5.25" SBC Before and during the installation of the NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 DO NOT: DO NOT remove any of the stickers on the PCB board. These stickers are required for warranty validation. DO NOT use the product before verifying all the cables and power connectors are properly connected. DO NOT allow screws to come in contact with the PCB circuit, connector pins, or its components. 4.
NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 5.25" SBC 4.4 CompactFlash® Installation NOTE: Both CompactFlash® Type I and Type II cards are supported. To install the CompactFlash® card, please follow the steps below. Step 1: Locate the CF card socket. Locate the CompactFlash® slot. Step 2: Align the CF card. Align the CompactFlash® card. The label side should be facing away from the board. The grooves on the CompactFlash® slot ensure that the card cannot be inserted the wrong way. Step 3: Insert the CF card.
NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 5.25" SBC 4.5 Jumper Settings NOTE: A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electrical circuit.

NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 5.25" SBC B.1 One Key Recovery Introduction The IEI one key recovery is an easy-to-use front end for the Norton Ghost system backup and recovery tool. The one key recovery provides quick and easy shortcuts for creating a backup and reverting to that backup or for reverting to the factory default settings. The IEI One Key Recovery tool menu is shown below.
NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 5.25" SBC B.1.1 System Requirement NOTE: The recovery CD can only be used with IEI products. The software will fail to run and a warning message will appear when used on non-IEI hardware. To create the system backup, the main storage device must be split into two partitions (three partitions for Linux). The first partition will be for the operating system, while the second partition will be invisible to the operating system and contain the backup made by the one key recovery software.
NOVA-PV-D5251/D4251 5.25" SBC NOTE: Specialized tools are required to change the partition size if the operating system is already installed. B.1.2 Supported Operating System The recovery CD is compatible with both Microsoft Windows and Linux operating system (OS). The supported OS versions are listed below.
