WARNING
For the system to operate normally, please make sure JCC of the mainboard is set as below. Refer
to Fig. 2 in this manual for the location JCC.
If JCC is shorted to 1-2, no CMOS data can be retained.
CAUTION
The motherboard is an electrostatic sensitive device. Don’t open or handle except at a static-
free workstation.
POWER OFF
It needs to hold the power switch 4 seconds to turn off the power.

JUMPERLESS QUICK SETUP PROCEDURES
1. Insert the Pentium® II CPU correctly.
2. Plug in other configurations and restore the system.
3. Press <Del> key and switch on power to the system to enter BIOS setup.
4. Enter “CPU Speed Setting” Menu to setup CPU speed.
Note: If you don not set CPU speed; your system will run at the lowest setting
(133MHz for Pentium® II)
5. Save and exit BIOS setup, your system can now boot successfully.
JUMPERLESS CPU SETUP MENU
Select <CPU Speed Setting> item from the main menu and enter the sub-menu:
