Installing the Memory
The A6PCI8077 board supports one DDR3L memory socket for a maximum
total memory of 4 GB.
Installing and Removing Memory Modules
To install the DDR3L module, locate the memory slot on the board and perform
the following steps:
1. Hold the DDR3L module so that the key of the DDR3L module aligned with
that on the memory slot.
2. Gently push the DDR3L module in an upright position until the clips of the
slot close to hold the DDR3L module in place when the DDR3L module
touches the bottom of the slot.
3. To remove the DDR3L module, press the clips with both hands.

BIOS Introduction
The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in the ROM of your computer
system supports Intel
®
processors. The BIOS provides critical low-level support
for standard devices such as disk drives, serial ports and parallel ports. It also
provides password protection as well as special support for detailed fine-tuning of
the chipset controlling the entire system.
BIOS Setup
The BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the system
configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system stores the Setup utility.
When you turn on the computer, the BIOS is immediately activated. Press the
<Del> key immediately allows you to enter the Setup utility. If you are a little bit
late pressing the <Del> key, POST (Power On Self Test) will continue with its test
routines, thus preventing you from invoking the Setup.
If you still need to enter Setup, restart the system by pressing the ”Reset” button or
simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys.
You can also restart by turning the system Off and back On again.
The following message will appear on the screen:
Press <DEL> to Enter Setup
In general, press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to select, the <PgUp>
and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for help, and <Esc> to quit.
Warning:
It is strongly recommended that you avoid making any
changes to the chipset defaults. These defaults have been
carefully chosen by both AMI and your system manufacturer
to provide the absolute maximum performance and
reliability. Changing the defaults could cause the system to
become unstable and crash in some cases.

Hardware Monitor
ACPI Shutdown Temperature
The default setting is Disabled.
Temperatures/Voltages
These fields are the parameters of the hardware monitoring function feature of the
motherboard. The values are read-only values as monitored by the system and show the PC
health status.
