====================
JP2: FLASH ROM BIOS VOLTAGE SELECTOR
     1-2 FOR 5V BIOS
     2-3 FOR 12V BIOS

     5V BIOS BRANDS:

WINBOND, SST, ATMEL

     12V BIOS BRANDS:

INTEL, MXIC

JP4: CMOS CHARGE / DISCHARGE SELECTOR default setting is 1-2 (charge) In 
     normal state the setting is 1-2. When you want to clear the CMOS data

     including date, time, Hard disk configuration, FDD type, password, 
     you can set JP4 to 2-3. Before setting 2-3, you have to draw the power
     core not less than 15 sec. to ensure the CMOS is deleted. After 
     clearing the CMOS, you should set the CMOS to charge (JP4). Othenvise,
     the system will not work properly.

JP6: KEYBOARD PASSWORD / PS/2 MOUSE POWER ON SELECTOR.
     If you want to enable this function, the 5VSB Current must be over 
     720MB to ensure this function can work properly.

     1-2     Keyboard Password / PS/2 Mouse Power on enabled (default)
     2-3     Keyboard Password / PS/2 Mouse Power on disabled

Definitions

The following definitions are provided to help you understand the lingo, 
acronyms, and technical language used in this manual Co describe your 
mainboard. Understanding the computer's basic parts and their functions
should make the process of installing your mainboard easier. Once a term has

been defined, its abbreviation will be used in the instructions and 
diagrams.
