CPU INSTALLATION
Jumperless CPU Configuration Main board
You do not need to setup any jumpers or switches on the PowerPro VX main board
for CPU.
Most other main boards require you setup a bunch of jumpers or DIP switches for
the type of the CPU you plan to install. Installing a CPU is becoming more and more
complex since there are so many different kind of CPU brands and models available in
the CPU market place. Not so with PowerPro VX main board. The PowerPro VX main
board simplified the CPU installation procedure by eliminating all the jumpers for CPU.
The CPU can be easily setup by software. After you have inserted the CPU into the ZIF
(Zero Insertion Force) CPU socket, and you have installed necessary display interface
card, you can simply turn the computer on. The only thing you will need to do next is
to enter BIOS SETUP to configure the CPU speed and certain CPU parameters in the
CPU
SOFT MENU™
. You may setup the CPU which is not listed with custom setting.
It reserved several circuits in order to be able to support future processors. However,
we must clarify that
“
we have only tested the CPUs listed in Chapter 1
”
, we cannot
guarantee that this board will be able to support future products, because we cannot
forecast future developments.

“
Bus clock
