JCMOS1: Clear CMOS Jumper
This jumper switch, JCMOS1, clears the CMOS Setup configuration that is stored in the real-time
clock’s CMOS memory. If configuration becomes corrupted, or if the CMOS settings are
changed to an unsuitable configuration, the motherboard may not work properly. JCMOS1lets
you delete the configuration data stored in CMOS memory and reset the CMOS to the Optimized
Defaults.
Follow the procedure below to clear CMOS memory.
1. Turn off and unplug the system and remove the system housing cover.
2. Set JCMOS1 to the Clear CMOS position by placing the jumper cap over pins 2 and 3 for
one minute.
3. Return the jumper cap to the Normal setting, pins 1 and 2.
4. Replace the system housing cover, plug in the system and power on.
5. Run the CMOS Setup Utility and load the Optimized Defaults. Make any custom settings
you require. (See Chapter 4, BIOS Settings.)
6. Save the settings as you exit the program and restart your computer.

CPU Socket & Cooling Fan / Heatsink Frame
The mPGA478B CPU socket supports a 478-pin Intel Pentium 4 processor. The Pentium 4 CPU
requires a cooling fan/heatsink, which attaches to the board using a retention mechanism
mounting frame. See the section on installing the CPU in Chapter 3.
AGP 8X 1.5V Slot
The AGP slot is for the exclusive use of high speed AGP video display cards. It is AGP 3.0
compliant. This AGP slot supports AGP4X and AGP8X card. This slot only supports 1.5V
devices. Do not use a 3.3V AGP card with this motherboard. The AGP slot is extended to include
support for AGP Pro cards using up to 50 watts of power.

Drive Connectors
There are drive connectors on the motherboard for connecting IDE and floppy disk drives.
FDD1: Floppy Disk Drive Connector
The connector FDD lets you attach one floppy disk drive to the motherboard using a standard
FDD ribbon cable.
IDE1, IDE2: IDE Drive Connectors
The two IDE drive connectors are marked IDE1, the primary channel, and IDE2, the secondary
channel. Each connector supports two drives, a Master and a Slave.
JCOM2: COM2 Port Bracket Connector
The COM2 Port Bracket Connector lets you add an additional serial port, to which you can
connect peripherals such as serial modems and pointing devices. The COM2 port is configured in
the CMOS Setup Utility, see Chapter 4.
JCOM3: COM1Port Bracket Connector (P4SG/P4SG-Gold only)
User’s Manual 2 -9

P4SE Series Motherboard
SATA1, SATA2: Serial ATA Drive Connectors
There are two Serial ATA connectors on the motherboard. Each connector supports one
drive, which connects to the motherboard with a Serial ATA cable. The motherboard
comes with two Serial ATA cables and one power core for user’s convenience.
Serial ATA Interfaces
The ICH5’s Serial ATA controller offers two independent Serial ATA ports with a theoretical maximum
transfer rate of 150 MB/s per port. One device can be installed on each port for a maximum of two Serial
ATA devices. A point-to-point interface is used for host to device connections, unlike Parallel IDE which
supports a master/slave configuration and two devices per channel. For compatibility, the underlying Serial
ATA functionality is transparent to the operating system. The Serial ATA controller can operate in both
legacy and native modes. In legacy mode, standard IDE I/O and IRQ resources are assigned (IRQ 14 and
15). In Native mode, standard PCI resource steering is used. Native mode is the preferred mode for
configurations using the Windows XP and Windows 2000 operating systems.
NOTE1: Many Serial ATA drives use new low-voltage power connectors and require adaptors or power supplies equipped
with low-voltage power connectors. For more information, see: http://www.serialata.org/
2 -10 User’s Manual
More Information about S-ATA HDD:
Serial ATA drives are designed for easy
installation with no jumpers, terminators, or
other settings. It is not necessary to set any
jumpers on this drive for proper operation.
The jumper block adjacent to the signal
connector is for factory use only.

Chapter 2
JCDIN1& JAUX1: Audio Connectors
These two connectors, JCDIN1and JAUX1, let you attach audio-in cables from internal
peripherals, such as a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive. The connectors provide an audio input
connection between a device and the integrated audio subsystem.
J1394_2: IEEE-1394 Connectors
The connector, J1394_2, provide onboard support for devices using the IEEE-1394 standard. The
IEEE-1394 standard provides high speed digital interface for audio/ video appliances such as
digital video camcorders, digital television, storage peripherals and other PC portable devices.
