Chapter 4 Software & Applications

Introduction

This chapter describes the contents of the support CD-ROM that
comes with the motherboard package.

The support CD-ROM contains all useful software, necessary
drivers and utility programs to properly run our products. More
program information is available in a README file, located in the
same directory as the software.

To run the support CD, simply insert the CD into your CD-ROM
drive. An Auto Setup screen automatically pops out, and then you
can go on the auto-installing or manual installation depending on
your operating system.

If your operating system is Windows 2000/XP, it will automatically
install all the drivers and utilities for your motherboard; if Windows
NT or manual installation, please follow the instructions described
as the Installing under Windows NT or Manual Installation sec-
tion.
