You can install DDR333/PC2700 (for 845GE chipset only), DDR266/PC2100, or DDR200/PC1600 DDR SDRAM modules on the DDR DIMM slots (DDR 1~2). To operate properly, at least one DIMM module must be installed. DDR1 DDR2 Introduction to DDR SDRAM DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM, but doubles the rate by transferring data twice per cycle. It uses 2. 5 volts as opposed to 3. 3 volts used in SDR SDRAM, and requires 184-pin DIMM modules rather than 168-pin DIMM modules used by SDR SDRAM. High memory bandwidth makes DDR an ideal solution for high performance PC, workstations and servers. 2-6 Hardware Setup DDR Module Combination You can install either single-sided or double-sided 184-pin DDR DIMM modules into DDR DIMM slots to meet your needs. Different from the SDR DIMM, the DDR DIMM has only one notch on the center of module. You can install memory modules in any combination as follows: Slot DIMM 1 (Bank 0 & 1) DIMM 2 (Bank 2 & 3) Memory Module S/D S/D Total Memory 64MB~1GB 64MB~1GB 64MB~2GB D: Double Side Maximum System Memory Supported S: Single Side Installing DDR Modules 1. Then push it in until the golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the socket. The plastic clip at each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close. Volt Notch TIP: You can barely see the golden finger if the module is deeply inserted in the socket. 2-7 Chapter 2 Power Supply The mainboard supports ATX power supply for the power system. Before inserting the power supply connector, always make sure that all components are installed properly to ensure that no damage will be caused. ATX 20-Pin Power Supply: CONN1 This connector allows you to connect to an ATX power supply. To connect to the ATX power supply, make sure the plugs of the power supply is inserted in the proper orientation and the pins are aligned. The power connector supports instant power on function which means that system will boot up immediately when the power supply connector is inserted on the board. ATX 12V Power Connector: JPW2 This 12V power connector is used to provide power to the CPU. 10 20 JPW2 2 4 1 3 1 11 CONN1 CONN1 Pin Definition PIN SIGNAL 3. 3V 3. 3V GND 5V GND 5V GND PW_OK 5V_SB 12V PIN 1 1 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 SIGNAL 3. 3V -12V GND PS_ON GND GND GND -5V 5V 5V JPW2 Pin Definition PIN 1 2 3 4 SIGNAL GND GND 12V 12V 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 2-8 Hardware Setup Back Panel The Back Panel provides the following connectors: Mouse Parallel 1394 LAN L-In L-Out MIC Keyboard USB COM A VGA USB Mouse/Keyboard Connector The mainboard provides a standard PS/2® mouse/keyboard mini DIN connector for attaching a PS/2® mouse/keyboard. You can plug a PS/2® mouse/ keyboard directly into this connector.

You can connect up to four hard disk drives, CD-ROM, 120MB Floppy (reserved for future BIOS) and other devices. These connectors support the provided IDE hard disk cable. SECON1 PRIMAR1 (Primary IDE Connector) The first hard drive should always be connected to IDE1.

To clear the password, open the jumper and restart your computer. JPWD1 Clear Normal 2-24 Hardware Setup Slots The motherboard provides three 32-bit Master PCI bus slots and one AGP slot. AGP Slot PCI Slots AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) Slot The AGP slot allows you to insert the AGP graphics card. AGP is an interface specification designed for the throughput demands of 3D graphics. It introduces a 66MHz, 32-bit channel for the graphics controller to directly access main memory and provides three levels of throughputs: 1x (266Mbps), 2x (533Mbps) and 4x (1. 07Gbps). [. . . ]
