Connecting IDE and Floppy Cable
Connect 34-pin floppy cable and 40-pin IDE cable to floppy connector FDC and IDE
connector
IDE1
,
IDE2
. Pin1 of cable is normally marked with red color. Be careful of the
pin1 orientation. Wrong orientation may cause system damage.
Attach the power LED, keylock, speaker, and
reset switch connectors to the corresponding
pins. If you enable Power Management > ACPI
Function in BIOS Setup, the ACPI & Power
LED will keep flashing while the system is in
suspend mode.
Connecting Front Panel Cable
Locate the power switch cable from your ATX
housing. It is 2-pin female connector from the
housing front panel. Plug this connector to the

Configuring System Memory
This motherboard has three 168-pin DIMM sockets that
allow you to install PC133 memory up to 512 MB. Only
SDRAM is supported.
Pin 1
Tip: The driving capability of new generation
chipset is limited due to the lack of a memory
buffer (to improve performance). This makes
DRAM chip count an important factor to take
into consideration when you install DIMMs.
Unfortunately, there is no way that the BIOS
can identify the correct chip count, you need
to calculate the chip count by yourself. The
simple rule is: By visual inspection, use
only DIMMs which are less than 16 chips.

JP28 Keyboard/Mouse Wakeup
This jumper is used to enable or disable Keyboard/Mouse
Wake Up function. If you select Enable, you can decide
the wake up mode from BIOS Setup > Integrated
Peripherals > Power On Function. To implement this
function, the power supply 5V standby current must be
greater than 800mA. Note that only PS/2 mouse supports
Wake on Mouse function.
