Introduction
Overview
The Advance 6E series are high performance, cost-effective and energy efficient mainboards
from 66MHz, 100MHz and 133MHz based on Socket-370 processors. The green mainboard
utilizes the VIA Apollo PLE133 chipset consisting of the VIA VT8601A( North Bridge ) and
the VIA VT82C686B( South Bridge ). The chipset integrates AGP 2D/3D graphics accelera-
tor to provide high graphics performance. It supports the UltraDMA-33/66/100 IDE, PC100/
PC133 SDRAM and AC’97 audio. In addition, advanced features are supported such as
wake-up on LAN, wake-up on internal/external modem, ACPI power management and hard-
ware monitoring.
