Ultra 440BX ATX Mainboard
INSTALLATION

Note:
1.
The 80-conductor cable is required to support the ATA/66 data
transfer mode. If you are using the 40-conductor cable on
these interface, then the performance may reduced to the
regular ATA /33 mode.
2.
Please do not install any SCSI card on the PCI slot 2 to avoid
hardware conflicting,
3.
If you are using this mainboard to upgrade your computer and
the Windows operation system is already installed in the HDD.
Then please have the HDD connected to either IDE 1 or IDE 2
connector when you are installing the device driver. If you
have that HDD connected to the ATA/66 IDE interface, then
the PC system will be failed to detect the HDD and you will be
unable to load the operation system.
4.
When you have installed the Ultra ATA/66 device driver, you
may feel free to shift the HDD to IDE3.
Software Installation:
MS-DOS and Windows 3.1:
The ATA /66 data transfer protocol is supported by the system BIOS and it will
support MS-DOS 5.0 (or above) and Windows 3.1 directly without any device
driver required (the 80-conductor cable is still required.). However, if you are
using the Windows 9X, Windows 2000 and Windows NT operation system, then
you have to install the device driver so that the onboard
ATA /66
interfaces will
work properly with the IDE devices.
Windows 95:
A.
Install the device driver when installing Windows 95
(you may use the 80-conductor cable and have the HDD connected to IDE3)
Step 1. When you have finished the installation of Windows 95 operation
system, restart the PC system.
Step 2. When the Windows operation system is loaded properly, select the
"
Control Panel
" and then double click on the "
System
" icon.
Step 3. Select the "
Device "manager
" and select the "
Other Devices
