SY-7VCA2

This is because the recorder and microphone in the Windows are not enabled. Please go to sound properties and enable them.

Lock up (freeze)

When I boot up my system, everything works fine. It sees my CPU and memory, detects my hard drive, floppy drive and CD-ROM but locks up at "Verify DMI pool data... ", and it won’t go any further. What should I do?

Please clear the CMOS via JP5 then choose 'load setup default' in the bios and save the bios and exit. Next, unplug all other add-on cards except the video card and floppy drive controller, and see if it can boot from floppy. Then put back the peripherals one by one to identify which one causes the lockup. If you are running a Cyrix CPU, make sure the 'linear burst function' is enabled in the bios.

I can not get my board to run properly.

Please make sure you have the latest bios and driver from the SOYO web site at: http://www.soyo.com

2-3.8 Power Off

There are two possible ways to turn off the system:

1.Use the Shutdown command in the Start Menu of Windows 95/98 to turn off your computer.

2.Press the mechanical power-button and hold down for over 4 seconds, to shutdown the computer. If you press the power-button for less than 4 seconds, then your system will enter into Suspend Mode.
