CAUTION! The AGP Pro slot is shipped with a safety tab on the 20-pin bay for use with AGP cards without a retention notch. DO NOT remove this tab if you will be using such cards; removing may cause these cards to shift, which may cause damage to your card, slot, and motherboard. Remove

ONLY when you will be using an AGP Pro card. Use a rigid tip, such as a pen tip, to dislodge and remove the tab from the bay.

3.7.4 Audio Modem Riser (AMR) Slot

This connector supports a specially designed audio and/or modem card called an AMR. Main processing is done through software and controlled by the motherboard’s system chipset. This provides an upgradeable audio and/or modem solution at an incredibly low cost. There are two types of AMR, one defined as primary and another defined as secondary. This motherboard uses the primary channel so that a secondary AMR can coexist without the need to disable the onboard CODEC. The motherboard’s onboard CODEC (optional) must be disabled when using a primary AMR.

NOTE: An AMR is not included with this motherboard.
