AB Soft Power Supply ATX 12V User Manual

Please read the users guide before proceeding with your  
installations. Serious damage may occur if the procedure is not  
followed properly.  
This motherboard does not support CPUs with a Vcore higher than 1.6  
volts. Please make sure the CPU you are using 1.6 volts or below.  
Check the CPU specification before you insert it in the CPU socket.  
AGP cards running at 3.3v are not supported. Only AGP cards running  
at 1.5v (most 4x or 8x AGP cards) are supported on this motherboard.  
Please make sure that your memory modules are inserted correctly.  
They can go in only one way, and should fit completely in the socket  
without sticking out. Failure to do so will damage your motherboard  
and memory module.  
An ATX 12V power supply (Power supply for Pentium 4 system) is  
required for the system to operate normally. (Preferably 350 watts for  
minimal loading or 400 watts for fully loaded system).  
If you have any problem getting your system to work, please follow the  
troubleshooting tips in your user manual.  
On some motherboards, the actual chipset cooler may differ from the  
chipset cooler as shown on the picture or on the box. However, the  
chipset fan on the motherboard is of the same quality and will work just  
as well as the one shown in the picture. (The chipset cooler is as  
sufficient as the chipset fan based on a different design.)

Warning: Do not apply power if the Motherboard appears damaged.  
If there is damage to the board, contact your dealer immediately.  
1-5 ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS  
Make sure to ground yourself before handling the Motherboard or other  
system components. Electrostatic discharge can easily damage the  
components. Note that you must take special precautions when handling the  
Motherboard in dry or air-conditioned environment.  
To protect your equipment from electrostatic discharge, take the following  
precautions:  
Do not remove the anti-static packaging until you are ready to install.  
Ground yourself before removing any system component from its  
protective anti-static packaging. (To ground yourself, grasp the  
expansion slot covers or other unpainted portions of the computer  
chassis.)  
Frequently ground yourself while working or use a grounding strap.  
Handle the Motherboard by its edges and avoid touching its  
components.

4. Then close the socket handle to secure the CPU in place.  
Remember to connect the CPU Cooling Fan to the appropriate  
power connector on the Motherboard. The fan is a key  
component that will ensure system stability. The fan prevents  
overheating, therefore prolonging the life of your CPU.  
CPU Fan Installation  
Your Socket 478 processor kit comes with a cooling fan. Mount the fan on  
the processor according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer.  
The fan is a key component that will ensure system stability. The fan  
prevents overheating, therefore prolonging the life of your CPU.  
Note: Remember to connect the fan to the appropriate power source.

DDR_A2  
DDR_B1  
This motherboard supports one Dual Channel to your memory, Note that  
you can use normal DDR memory for Dual Channel to work. Also note that  
for Dual Channel to work 2 modules of equal size and specifications have to  
be installed.  
The largest memory capacity possible is 3 GB. On this motherboard,  
DRAM speed can be set independent form the CPU front side bus speed.  
Note that when installing 3GB of memory, your total memory will be less  
than 3GB. The reason for this is that the BIOS, PCI and AGP cards claim  
part of your CPUs address space.

Step 3 Installation of Expansion Cards  
The motherboard has 1 AGP slot and 5 PCI slots.  
1. Read the related expansion card’s instruction document before inserting  
the expansion card into the computer.  
2. Press the expansion card firmly into the expansion slot in the motherboard.  
3. Make sure the metal contacts on the card are seated in the slot.  
4. Replace the screw to secure the slot bracket of the expansion card.  
5. Install required driver for the operating system you use.  
This motherboard only support 1.5V AGP card (4X/8X card). If 3.3V  
AGP card is used, the system will not boot-up and the AGPDET LED  
will lit.

3-1 SOYO COMBO FEATURE  
This motherboard does not use any hardware jumpers to set the CPU  
frequency. Instead, CPU settings are software configurable with the BIOS  
[SOYO COMBO Feature].  
After the hardware installation is complete, turn the power switch on, then  
press the <DEL> key during the system diagnostic checks to enter the  
Award BIOS Setup program. The CMOS SETUP UTILITY will display on  
screen. Then, select the [SOYO COMBO Feature] option from the main  
menu and press the <Enter> key.
