devices.

The system board is equipped with 3 dedicated PCI slots, 2

Power Supply Connectors
The system board is a Baby AT form factor system board
designed to fit into an ATX form factor chassis. The board is
equipped with both ATX and AT power supply connectors.
“Power-Supply Type” in the Chipset Features Setup must be set
according to the type of power supply installed in your computer.
The default is AT (for an AT power supply). If you are using an
ATX power supply, make sure to set this field to ATX.
Using an ATX power supply, you can either shut down your com-
puter by pressing the Power button located on the front bezel of
your computer or by executing the Shut Down command under
the Windows

95 operating system. Your system will then enter
the “Soft Off” state.
To power-on your system automatically, enable “Resume By Alarm”
in the Power Management Setup of the Award BIOS. This will
allow you to set the day and time you would like your system to
power-on.
An ATX power supply also provides adequate airflow throughout
the chassis to prevent overheating the processor.
