User’s Manual
When you change your CPU:
This motherboard has been designed in such a way that you can turn the system on after
having inserted a CPU in the socket without having to configure any jumpers or DIP
switches. But if you change your CPU, normally you just have to turn off the power supply,
change the CPU and then, set up the CPU parameters through SOFT MENU
™
II. However,
if the new CPU is slower than the old one (and is same brand and type), we offer you two
methods to successfully complete the CPU change operation.
Method 1: Setup up the CPU for the lowest speed for its brand. Turn the power supply off
and change the CPU. Then turn the system on again, and set up the CPU
parameters through SOFT MENU
™
II.
Method 2: Since you have to open the computer case when you change the CPU, it could be
a good idea to use the CCMOS jumper to erase the parameters of the original
CPU and to enter BIOS Setup to set up CPU parameters again.
Attention
After setting up the parameters and leaving the BIOS SETUP, and having verified that
the system can be booted, do not press the Reset button or turn off the power supply.
Otherwise the BIOS will not read correctly, the parameters will fail and you must enter
SOFT MENU
™
II again to set up the parameters all over again.
CPU Power Supply:
This option allows you to switch between CPU default and user defined voltages.

CPU Default: The system will detect the CPU type and select the proper voltage
automatically. When it is enabled, the option “Core Voltage” will show
the current voltage setting that is defined by the CPU and this will not be
changeable. We recommend using this CPU default setting and not
changing it unless the current CPU type and voltage setting can not be
detected or is not correct.

User Define:
This option lets the user select the voltage manually. You can change
values of the “Core Voltage” option lists by using the Page Up and Page
Down keys.
