You can clear CMOS to restore system default setting. To

clear the CMOS, follow the procedure below.

1. Turn off the system and unplug the AC power.

2. Remove ATX power cable from connector PWR2.

3. Locate JP14 and short pins 2-3 for a few seconds.

4. Return JP14 to its normal setting by shorting pin1 & pin2.

5. Connect ATX power cable back to connector PWR2.

Tip: When should I Clear CMOS?

1. Boot fail because of overclocking…

2. Forget password…

This motherboard provides keyboard / mouse wake-up function. You can use JP28 to

enable or disable this function, which could resume your system from suspend mode with

keyboard or mouse. The factory default setting is “Enable”(1-2), and you may disable this

function by setting the jumper to 2-3.

Setting CPU Core Voltage

This motherboard supports CPU VID function. The CPU core voltage will be automaticall

detected and the range is from 1.10V to 1.85V. It is not necessary to set CPU Core

Voltage.

Setting CPU Frequency

This motherboard is CPU jumper-less design, you can set CPU frequency through the

BIOS setup, and no jumpers or switches are needed.

Core Frequency = CPU FSB Clock * CPU Ratio

Warning: Intel

850E chipset

supports maximum 400MHz

(100MHz*4) system bus and

66MHz AGP clock, higher

clock setting may cause

serious system damage.

9. Connecting Front Panel Cable

The IrDA connector can be configured to support wireless infrared module. This

connector supports HPSIR (115.2Kbps, 2 meters) and ASK-IR (56Kbps).

Install the infrared module onto the IrDA connector and enable the infrared function from

BIOS Setup, UART2 Mode, make sure to have the correct orientation when you plug in

the IrDA connector.

If the housing is designed with an audio port on the front panel, you can connect onboard

audio to front panel through this connector. Please remove the jumper cap from the Front

Panel Audio Connector before you connect the cable. Do not remove this yellow jumper

cap if your housing does not have an audio port on the front panel.

This motherboard has four 184-pin RIMM

sockets that allow you to install PC600, PC800

and PC1066 RDRAM

up to 2GB. AX4T II-533 / AX4T II-533N will detect the RDRAM

speed automatically while system is in POST

, but it still allows you to select the RDRAM

type manually by BIOS setup program. Please note that 400MHz FSB doesn’t support

RIMM PC1066.

Attach the power LED, speaker, and reset switch connectors

to the corresponding pins. If you enable “Suspend Mode”

item in BIOS Setup, the ACPI & Power LED will keep

flashing while the system is in suspend mode.

Locate the power switch cable from your ATX housing. It is

2-pin female connector from the housing front panel. Plug

this connector to the soft-power switch connector marked

PWR.

17. BIOS Upgrade

You may accomplish BIOS upgrade procedure with EZWinFlash by the following steps,

and it’s STRONGLY RECOMMMANDED to close all the applications before you start the

upgrading.

1. Download the new version of BIOS package zip file from AOpen official web site. (ex:

http://www.aopen.com

)

2. Unzip the download BIOS package (ex: WAX4T2533102.ZIP) with WinZip

(http://www.winzip.com

) in Windows environment.

3. Save the unzipped files into a folder, for example, WAX4T2533102.EXE &

WAX4T2533102.BIN.

4. Double click on WAX4T2533102.EXE, EZWinFlash will detect the model name and

BIOS version of your motherboard. If you had got the wrong BIOS, you will not be

allowed to proceed with the flash steps.

5. You may select preferred language in the main menu, then click [Start Flash] to star

the BIOS upgrade procedure.

6. EZWinFlash will complete all the process automatically, and a dialogue box will pop

up to ask you to restart Windows. You may click [YES] to reboot Windows.

7. Press <Del> at POST to enter BIOS setup, choose "Load Setup Defaults", then “Save

& Exit Setup”. Done!

It is strongly recommended NOT to turn off the power or run any application during

FLASH PROCESS.

16. Installing Onboard Audio Driver

You can use the autorun menu of Bonus CD. Choose the utility and driver and selec

model name.

Del

Warning: Please avoid of using "Load

Turbo Defaults", unless you are sure

our system components (CPU, DRAM,

HDD, etc.) are good enough for turbo

settin

This motherboard comes with RealTek ALC201A chip, you can find the audio driver from

the Bonus Pack CD auto-run menu.

If you encounter any trouble to boot you system, follow the procedures

accordingly to resolve the problem.

P/N: 91.88110.201 is part number, S/N: 91949378KN73 is serial number.

AX4T II-533N is the model name of motherboard; R1.00 is BIOS version

Make sure if the jumper settings for CPU and DRAMs are correct.

Clear CMOS.

Install the VGA card. Then connect your monitor and keyboard.

The problem was probably caused

by power supply or motherboard

failure. Please contact your reselle

or local distributor for repairing.

Perhaps your VGA card or monito

is defective.

Yes

It is very possible that your keyboard

is defective.

During system rebooting, press Del to enter BIOS Setup. Choose

“Load Setup Default".

The problem should be caused by the

IDE cables or HDD itself.

Re-install Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows NT.

Yes

Turn off the power and unplug the AC power cable, then remove all

of the addon cards and cables, including VGA, IDE, FDD, COM1,

COM2 and Printer.

Turn on the power, and check if

the power supply and CPU fan

work properly.

Start

Check if there is display.

Press Ctrl, and Alt key at the

same time, hold them and then

press Del to see if the

stem reboots.
