This chapter describes jumpers, connectors and hardware devices of this motherboard.
Note: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, dis
k
drives, expansion boards, and other components. Always observe the
following precautions before you install a system component.
1.Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until you
are ready to install it.
2.Wear a wrist ground strap and attach it to a metal part of the system
unit before handling a component. If a wrist strap is not available,
maintain contact with the system unit throughout any procedure
requiring ESD protection.

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 pins 1-2.
5. Connect ATX power cable back to connector PWR2.

CPU VID signal and SMbus clock generator provide CPU voltage auto-detection and allows the
user to set the CPU frequency through the BIOS setup
, therefore no jumpers or switches are used.
The correct CPU information is saved into the EEPROM
. With these technologies, the
disadvantages of the Pentium based jumper-less designs are eliminated. There will be no worry of
wrong CPU voltage detection and no need to re-open the housing in case of CMOS battery loss.

This jumper is used to specify the relationship of
PCI and FSB
clock. Generally speaking, if you are
not overclockers, we recommend to set at the
default setting. For example, you must set JP29 to
“5-6” and JP23 to “3-4” if you want to overclock a
66MHz FSB clock CPU to 100MHz or higher.
