3 Environmental Safety Instruction Avoid the dusty, humidity and temperature extremes. Do not place the product in any area where it may become wet. 0 to 40 centigrade is the suitable temperature. (The figure comes from the request of the main chipset) Generally speaking, dramatic changes in temperature may lead to contact malfunction and crackles due to constant thermal expansion and contraction from the welding spots that connect components and PCB. Computer should go through an adaptive phase before it boots when it is moved from a cold environment to a warmer one to avoid condensation phenomenon. These water drops attached on PCB or the surface of the components can bring about phenomena as minor as computer instability resulted from corrosion and oxidation from components and PCB or as major as short circuit that can burn the components. Suggest starting the computer until the temperature goes up. The increasing temperature of the capacitor may decrease the life of computer. Using the close case may decrease the life of other device because the higher temperature in the inner of the case. Attention to the heat sink when you over-clocking. The higher temperature may decrease the life of the device and burned the capacitor. Environmental Protection Announcement Do not dispose this electronic device into the trash while discarding. To minimize pollution and ensure environment protection of mother earth, please recycle. iii

This inclusion of XHCI controllers has lessened the need for EHCI USB controllers within platforms. However, legacy operating systems (OS) may not natively recognize XHCI controllers. You might need to pre-install XHCI driver while desiring to install a non-xhci OS (ex.windows* 7) on Intel platforms which do not include EHCI controllers.

The ATX Power Supply allows using soft power on momentary switch that connect from the front panel switch to 2-pins Power On jumper pole on the motherboard. When the power switch on the back of the ATX power supply turned on, the full power will not come into the system board until the front panel switch is momentarily pressed. Press this switch again will turn off the power to the system board. ** We recommend that you use an ATX 12V Specification 2.0-compliant power supply unit (PSU) with a minimum of 350W power rating. This type has 24-pin and 4-pin power plugs. ** If you intend to use a PSU with 20-pin and 4-pin power plugs, make sure that the 20-pin power plug can provide at least 15A on +12V and the power supply unit has a minimum power rating of 350W. The system may become unstable or may not boot up if the power is inadequate. ** If you are using a 20-pin power plug, please refer to Figure1 for power supply connection. Power plug form power supply and power connectors from motherboard both adopt key design to avoid mistake installation. You can insert the power plug into the connector with ease only in the right direction. If the direction is wrong it is hard to fit in and if you make the connection by force if is possible. 10

21 Chapter 3 Introducing BIOS Notice! The BIOS options in this manual are for reference only. Different configurations may lead to difference in BIOS screen and BIOS screens in manuals are usually the first BIOS version when the board is released and may be different from your purchased motherboard. Users are welcome to download the latest BIOS version form our official website. The BIOS is a program located on a Flash Memory on the motherboard. This program is a bridge between motherboard and operating system. When you start the computer, the BIOS program will gain control. The BIOS first operates an auto-diagnostic test called POST (power on self test) for all the necessary hardware, it detects the entire hardware device and configures the parameters of the hardware synchronization. Only when these tasks are completed done it gives up control of the computer to operating system (OS). Since the BIOS is the only channel for hardware and software to communicate, it is the key factor for system stability, and in ensuring that your system performance as its best. 3-1 Entering Setup Power on the computer and by pressing <Del> immediately allows you to enter Setup. If the message disappears before your respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the RESET button on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an error message will be displayed and you will again be asked to Press <Del> to enter Setup/ Press <F7> to enter Popup Menu. 3-2 BIOS Menu Screen The following diagram show a general BIOS menu screen: 17
