If you install Intel® LAN utility or Marvell SATA utility, this motherboard may fail Win-

dows® Hardware Quality Lab (WHQL) certication tests. If you install the drivers only, it

will pass the WHQL tests.

1.3 Unique Features

ASRock Rack Instant Flash is a BIOS ash utility embedded in Flash ROM. is con-

venient BIOS update tool allows you to update system BIOS without entering operat-

ing systems rst like MS-DOS or Windows®. With this utility, you can press the <F6>

key during the POST or the <F2> key to enter into the BIOS setup menu to access

ASRock Rack Instant Flash. Just launch this tool and save the new BIOS le to your

USB ash drive, oppy disk or hard drive, then you can update your BIOS only in a

few clicks without preparing an additional oppy diskette or other complicated ash

utility. Please be noted that the USB ash drive or hard drive must use FAT32/16/12

le system.

Chapter 2 Installation

is is an ATX form factor (12” x 9.6”, 30.5 cm x 24.4 cm) motherboard. Before you install

the motherboard, study the conguration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard

ts into it.

2.1 Screw Holes

Place screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis.

Attention! Before installing this motherboard, be sure to unscrew and remove the stando

at the marked location, under the motherboard, from the chassis, in order to avoid electri-

cal short circuit and damage to your motherboard.

Rear I/O

Remove the standoff

from the chassis

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure

to do so may cause physical injuries to you and damages to motherboard components.
