When a device is plugged into the blue Line-In Audio Connector, a dialog box will pop up asking if you want to use the connector for a line-in device or a microphone. You can reconfigure the connector at any time by double- clicking the Realtek HD Audio Manager icon in the Windows taskbar.

The monitor connectors on the system board are inactive when a graphics card is installed in the computer.

If a graphics card is installed into one of the motherboard slots, the connectors on the graphics card and the system board may be used at the same time. Some settings may need to be changed in Computer Setup to use both connectors.
