Question: What's on the CD that came with my motherboard?

Answer: The supplied compact disc has quite a few drivers and programs that will greatly enhance your system. We recommend that you review the CD and install the applications you need. Applications on the CD include chipset drivers for Windows and security and audio drivers.

Question: Why can't I turn off the power using the momentary power on/off switch?

Answer: The instant power off function is controlled in BIOS by the Power Button Mode setting. When the On/Off feature is enabled, the motherboard will have instant off capabilities as long as the BIOS has control of the system. When the Standby or Suspend feature is enabled or when the BIOS is not in control such as during memory count (the first screen that appears when the system is turned on), the momentary on/off switch must be held for more than four seconds to shut down the system. This feature is required to implement the ACPI features on the motherboard.

Question: How do I connect the ATA100/66 cable to my IDE

device(s)?

Answer: The 80-wire/40-pin high-density ATA100/66 IDE cable that came with your system has two connectors to support two drives. This special cable must be used to take advantage of the speed the ATA100/66 technol- ogy offers. Connect the blue connector to the onboard IDE header

and the other connector(s) to your hard drive(s). Consult the docu-

mentation that came with your disk drive for details on actual jumper loca-

tions and settings.

Question: After I have installed 4 pieces of 1GB Memory, why does the BIOS only detect about 3.15 GB of memory during POST?

Answer: Because the chipset does not support memory remapping, so

there is a memory hole located around the 4GB memory address.
