Environmental Safety Instruction

z Avoid the dusty, humidity and temperature extremes. Do not place the product in

any area where it may become wet.

z 0 to 60 centigrade is the suitable temperature. (The figure comes from the request

of the main chipset)

z Generally speaking, dramatic changes in temperature may lead to contact

malfunction and crackles due to constant thermal expansion and contraction from

the welding spots’ that connect components and PCB. Computer should go

through an adaptive phase before it boots when it is moved from a cold

environment to a warmer one to avoid condensation phenomenon. These water

drops attached on PCB or the surface of the components can bring about

phenomena as minor as computer instability resulted from corrosion and oxidation

from components and PCB or as major as short circuit that can burn the

components. Suggest starting the computer until the temperature goes up.

z The increasing temperature of the capacitor may decrease the life of computer.

Using the close case may decrease the life of other device because the higher

temperature in the inner of the case.

z Attention to the heat sink when you over-clocking. The higher temperature may

decrease the life of the device and burned the capacitor.

Introducing BIOS

Notice! The BIOS options in this manual are for reference only. Different

configurations may lead to difference in BIOS screen and BIOS

screens in manuals are usually the first BIOS version when the board is

released and may be different from your purchased motherboard.

Users are welcome to download the latest BIOS version form our

official website.

The BIOS is a program located on a Flash Memory on the motherboard. This program

is a bridge between motherboard and operating system. When you start the computer,

the BIOS program will gain control. The BIOS first operates an auto-diagnostic test

called POST (power on self test) for all the necessary hardware, it detects the entire

hardware device and configures the parameters of the hardware synchronization.

Only when these tasks are completed done it gives up control of the computer to

operating system (OS). Since the BIOS is the only channel for hardware and software

to communicate, it is the key factor for system stability, and in ensuring that your

system performance as its best.

In the BIOS Setup main menu of Figure 3-1, you can see several options. We will

explain these options step by step in the following pages of this chapter, but let us first

see a short description of the function keys you may use here:

• Press <Esc> to quit the BIOS Setup.

• Press ↑↓←→ (up, down, left, right) to choose, in the main menu, the option you

want to confirm or to modify.

• Press <F10> when you have completed the setup of BIOS parameters to save

these parameters and to exit the BIOS Setup menu.

• Press Page Up/Page Down or +/– keys when you want to modify the BIOS

parameters for the active option.
