Chapter 4 Software & Applications

Introduction

This chapter describes the contents of the support CD-ROM that comes with
the motherboard package.

The support CD-ROM contains all useful software, necessary drivers and
utility programs to properly run our products. More program information is

Auto Setup screen automatically pops out, and then you can go on the auto-
