Hardware Setup  
CPU (Central Processing Unit)  
The mainboard supports Intel® Core 2 Duo/Core Duo/Celeron M processors in  
Socket P. When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a heat sink  
and a cooling fan attached on the top to prevent overheating. If you do not  
have the heat sink and cooling fan, contact your dealer to purchase and install them  
before turning on the computer.  
Important  
1. Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system. Always make  
sure the cooling fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheating.  
2. Make sure that you apply an even layer of heat sink paste (or thermal tape)  
between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation.  
3. While replacing the CPU, always turn off the power supply or unplug the  
power supplys power cord from the grounded outlet first to ensure the  
safety of CPU.

CPU & Cooler Installation for Socket P  
1. Locate the CPU socket on the  
mainboard.  
2. Place the CPU on top of the socket. Make sure to align the gold arrow on the CPU  
with the arrow key on the socket.  
3. Push the CPU down until its pins securely fit into the socket.  
4. On the front end of the CPU socket is a  
locking mechanism designed into the  
form of a screw head. Make sure that  
you actuate or deactuate this mecha-  
nism with a screwdriver before and af-  
ter installing the CPU.

CPU cooler backplate  
7. The heatsink paste helps to enhance heat dissipation of the CPU. Before installing  
the cooler set (fan & heatsink bundled), make sure that you detach the shield of  
the heatsink paste under the cooler set.  
8. Locate the four screw holes around the CPU socket where the CPU cooler  
backplate was installed. Align the cooler set with the screw holes and mount it on  
top of the CPU.  
10. Connect the fan power cable to the  
CPUFAN1 connector on the mainboard.

Quick Boot  
Enabling this setting will cause the BIOS power-on self test routine to skip some  
of its tests during bootup for faster system boot.  
Quiet Boot  
This BIOS feature determines if the BIOS should hide the normal POST mes-  
sages with the motherboard or system manufacturer's full-screen logo.  
When it is enabled, the BIOS will display the full-screen logo during the boot-up  
sequence, hiding normal POST messages.  
When it is disabled, the BIOS will display the normal POST messages, instead of  
the full-screen logo.  
Please note that enabling this BIOS feature often adds 2-3 seconds of delay to  
the booting sequence. This delay ensures that the logo is displayed for a  
sufficient amount of time. Therefore, it is recommended that you disable this  
BIOS feature for a faster boot-up time.  
AddOn ROM Display Mode  
This item is used to determine the display mode when an optional ROM is  
initialized during POST. When set to [Force BIOS], the display mode used by AMI  
BIOS is used. Select [Keep Current] if you want to use the display mode of  
optionalROM.  
Bootup Num-Lock

Setting to [On] will turn on the Num Lock key when the system is powered on.  
Setting to [Off] will allow users to use the arrow keys on the numeric keypad.  
PS/2 Mouse Support  
Select [Enabled] if you need to use a PS/2-interfaced mouse in the operating  
system.  
Wait For F1If Error  
When this setting is set to [Enabled] and the boot sequence encounters an  
error, it asks you to press F1. If disabled, the system continues to boot without  
waiting for you to press any keys.  
Hit DELMessage Display  
Set this option to [Disabled] to prevent the message as follows:  
Hit Del if you want to run setup  
It will prevent the message from appearing on the first BIOS screen when the  
computer boots. Set it to [Enabled] when you want to run the BIOS Setup Utility.  
Interrupt 19 Capture  
Interrupt 19 is the software interrupt that handles the boot disk function. When  
enabled, this BIOS feature allows the ROM BIOS of these host adaptors to  
"capture" Interrupt 19 during the boot process so that drives attached to these  
adaptors can function as bootable disks. In addition, it allows you to gain ac-  
cess to the host adaptor's ROM setup utility, if one is available.  
When disabled, the ROM BIOS of these host adaptors will not be able to "cap-

Internal Graphics Mode Select  
The field specifies the size of system memory allocated for video memory.  
PEG Port  
This setting allows you to select whether to use the onchip graphics processor  
or the PCI Express card. When set to [Auto], the BIOS checks to see if a PCI  
Express graphics card is installed. If it detects that a PCI Express graphics card  
is present, the motherboard boots up using that card. Otherwise, it defaults to  
the onboard graphics processor.  
PEG Force X1  
This BIOS feature allows you to convert a PCI Express X16 slot into a PCI  
Express X1 slot. When [Enabled], the PCI Express X16 slot will be forced to run  
in the PCI Express X1 mode. When [Disabled], the PCI Express X16 slot will be  
allowed to run in its normal PCI Express X16 mode.  
If you have a PCI Express X16 graphics card installed in your system, you  
should disable this BIOS feature. This allows for optimal performance of the  
card by ensuring maximum transfer rates between the graphics card and the  
motherboard.  
But if you need to install a PCI Express X1 card into the PCI Express X16 slot,  
you should enable this BIOS feature to ensure maximum compatibility.

namically allocate memory resources according to the demands of the sys-  
tem at any point in time. The key idea in DVMT is to improve the efficiency of  
the memory allocated to either system or graphics processor.  
It is recommended that you set this BIOS feature to DVMT Mode for maximum  
performance. Setting it to DVMT Mode ensures that system memory is dy-  
namically allocated for optimal balance between graphics and system  
performance.  
DVMT/FIXED Memory  
When set to DVMT/FIXED Mode, the graphics driver will allocate a fixed  
amount of memory as dedicated graphics memory, as well as allow more
