FEATURES
MVP4M Features:
•Intel Pentium®Processor, Pentium Processor with MMX technology,
AMDK5/K6, Cyrix 6x86L/6x86MX & idtC6 operating at 133 ~ 500
MHzwith 321 ZIF socket 7 provides scalability to accept faster
Processors in the future.
•Designed with VIA MVP4 AGPset.
•Supports up to 512 Mega of DRAM (minimum of 16 MB) on board,
You can use 168-pin DIMM x 2.
•Supports (1) 16 bit ISA slots, (3) 32 bit PCI slots, (1) AMR Slot and provides
(2) independent high performance PCI IDE interfaces capable of supporting
PIO Mode 3/4 and Ultra DMA 33/66 devices. The MVP4M supports (3)
PCI Bus Master slots and a jumperless PCI INT# control scheme which re-
duces configuration confusion when plugging in PCI card(s).
•Supports ATAPI (e.g. CD-ROM) devices on both Primary and Secondary
IDE interfaces.
•Designed with lntegrated Multi I/O: (1) floppy port, (1) parallel port
(EPP,ECP), and (2) serial ports (16550 Fast UART).
Note: Japanese “Floppy 3 mode” is also supported
•Features Award Plug & Play BIOS. With Flash Memory you can always
upgrade to the current BIOS as they are released. (http://www.2themax.com
please visit our Technical Support section for the latest updates)
•MVP4M utilizes a Lithium battery which provides environmental
protection and longer battery life.
• Software power-down when using Windows®95/98.

System Memory Configuration
Memory Layout
The MVP4M supports (2) 168-pin DIMMs (Dual In-line Memory Module).
The DIMMs can be either EDO (Extended Data Out) or SDRAM (Synchronized
DRAM). The DIMMs may be installed using just one chip.
•We recommend using SDRAM DIMM can not mixing
with EDO DIMM modules.
• DIMM SDRAM may be 83MHz (-12ns), 100MHz (-10ns) or
125MHz (-8ns) bus speed.
• No Registered DIMM support.
Figure 2 and Table 1 show several possible memory configurations using
* SDRAM only supports 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256MB DIMM modules.

Soft-Off by Pwr-BTTN feature, you can choose either Instant
Off (turns system off immediately), or 4 sec delay (you need to
hold the button down for 4 seconds before the system turns off).
When the system is in 4 sec delay mode, there is a special feature
to make the system to go into suspend mode when the button is
pressed momentarily.)
