Question:
What's on the CD that came with my motherboard?
Answer:
The supplied compact disc has quite a few drivers and programs that
will greatly enhance your system. We recommend that you review the CD and
install the applications you need. Applications on the CD include chipset drivers
for Windows, security and audio drivers.
Question: How do I connect the ATA100/66 cable to my IDE device(s)?
Answer:
The 80-wire/40-pin high-density ATA100/66 IDE cable that came with
your system has two connectors to support two drives. This special cable
must be used to take advantage of the speed the ATA100/66 technology offers.

Consult the documentation that came with
your disk drive for details on actual jumper locations and settings.
