    BIOS Questions

    How do I get into the BIOS setup?

    Keep hitting the DELETE key during the system memory count.

     

    Do you have a BIOS history file that includes the problem(s) fixed for each revision of the BIOS?

    Yes, click here for the file.

     

    How do I update or flash my BIOS?

    Updated BIOS are available on our FTP site.

     

    I have flashed my BIOS, but now I get no video!

    Try clearing your CMOS (see above). Make sure you've flashed the BIOS using the correct BIOS for your system board; flashing the wrong BIOS will render the board inoperable.

    Hardware Questions

    Does this system support the AMD Athlon XP CPU?

    Yes, make sure you have the latest BIOS

     

    I have an AMD Athlon CPU with the 266MHz FSB. How do I configure the board to recognize it properly?

    Set SW1 to ON,ON,ON,ON for 266MHz FSB operation. Set SW1 to ON,ON,OFF,OFF for 200MHz FSB mode.

     

    How do I enable or disable the onboard audio?

    Hit the DELETE key during power up to go into the BIOS, and then go to Advanced Chipset Features. Set the OnChip Sound feature to DISABLED. Set it to AUTO to enable it.

     

    I've turned the system on, but I'm getting no power (i.e., power supply fan does not spin).

    Make sure the cable from the case's power switch is connected properly to the board's power on jumper; refer to the motherboard manual. Try reseating the ATX power connector to the motherboard. Disconnect all the power connectors to your HDD, FDD, CD-ROM, etc. then try powering the system up. Try replacing the ATX power supply.

     

    I have two USB ports in the back, how do I enable them?

    Windows NT 4.0 currently do not support USB. Windows 98/98SE, Windows 2000, Windows Me, and Windows XP all comes with native USB drivers.

     

    What kind of DDR DIMMs should I use?

    The motherboard only accepts PC1600/2100, DDR DIMM.

     

    Can I use just one DDR DIMM?

    Yes.

     

    Does the system support ECC memory?

    Yes.

     

    What is the system's maximum memory capacity?

    For the DDR, it is 2.0GB using two 1GB DIMMs.

    For the DDR+, it is 3.0GB using three 1GB DIMMs.
