RAM Configuration

You can install from 8MB to 384MB of memory in the motherboard DIMM sockets. There are three DIMM sockets arranged as banks 0, 1, and 2. The motherboard supports the following memory features:

  • 168-pin 3.3V DIMMs with gold plated contacts
  • 66MHz unbuffered SDRAM
  • Non-ECC (64-bit) or ECC (72-bit) memory
  • 8MB, 16MB, 32MB, 64MB, and 128MB modules

When adding memory, follow these guidelines:

  • You can install DIMMs of any size in any of the three banks.
  • The BIOS detects the size and type of installed memory.
  • For ECC operation, all installed memory must be ECC (72-bit) and you must enable the ECC Configuration feature in the Setup program.

Jumper Settings

Note that with this motherboard the setting of the processor clock speed and clearing of passwords is carried out by software and not by hardware jumper settings, via a Maintenance menu in Setup.

To enable this mode of Setup, a Configuration Jumper Block (J8B2) is set as explained below. The diagram shows the location of the Configuration Jumper Block on the motherboard. The jumper is set to normal mode at the factory.

The following table shows the jumper settings for the different Setup modes. These modes configure Setup for normal operations, maintenance operations, or recovering the BIOS.

Function Jumper J8B2 Description
Normal 1-2 BIOS uses current configuration and passwords for booting.
Configure 2-3 After the POST runs, Setup starts and displays the Maintenance menu. This menu displays options for setting the processor speed and clearing passwords.
Recovery None BIOS recovers data from a recovery diskette.

Audio Subsystem

The onboard audio subsystem is based on the Yamaha OPL family of single-chip audio controllers (YM 715). The audio subsystem provides the digital audio and analog mixing functions needed for recording and playing sound on personal computers. The subsystem features:

  • Line and microphone level inputs
  • MIDI/Game port
  • 3-D enhanced stereo
  • Full digital control of all mixer and volume control functions
  • Full duplex operation
  • Sound Blaster Pro, Windows Sound System, Roland MPU-401, AdLib, and Multimedia PC Level 2 (MPCII) compatibility
  • Onboard Yamaha YM 704 wavetable synthesizer (optional)
  • Wavetable upgrade connector
  • CD-ROM audio connector
  • Telephony connectors

 


Hardware Monitor Option

The hardware monitor option features the following:

  • An integrated temperature sensor
  • Fan speed sensors
  • Power supply voltage monitor
  • POST test result and error code storage
  • Support for Intel LANDeskÒ Client Manager
  • Connector for external chassis security feature

These features are implemented by an integrated hardware monitor device.

 


Front Panel Connections

The motherboard has connectors for controls and indicators typically located on the front panel of the computer. A jumper on pins 26/27 connects the on-board speaker.

CMOS

Replacing the configuration battery

A battery on the motherboard keeps the clock and values in CMOS RAM current when you computer is turned off. The battery should last about seven years. When the battery begins to die, it loses voltage; when the voltage drops below a certain level, the Setup program settings stored in CMOS RAM (for example, the date and time) might not be accurate. Replace the battery with an equivalent one.

Warning
The CMOS battery is a lithium type. Do not use a metal tool to remove the battery. An accidental short circuit may cause the battery to explode. Dispose of the battery according to the battery manufacturer's recommendations.

To replace the battery

  1. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the computer.
  2. Turn off the computer and unplug all power cords.
  3. Take suitable anti-static precautions and remove the computer top and access covers.
  4. With your fingers, gently prise the battery free from its socket. Note the "+" and "-" orientation of the battery.
  5. Install the new battery in the socket, orienting the "+" and "-" correctly.
  6. Replace the computer covers.
