2-1 Unpacking
Thi mainboard package hould contain the following:
The 9BXAS/9BXAN/9BXAS-A/9BXAN-A/9ZXAS/9ZXAN mainboard
USER’S MANUAL for mainboard
Cable et for IDE x1, Floppy x1
CD for Driver PACK
The mainboard contain en itive electronic component that can be ea ily damaged by electron-
tatic, o the mainboard hould be left in it original packing until it i in talled.
Unpacking and in tallation hould be done on a grounded anti- tatic mat.
The operator hould be wearing an anti tatic wri tband, grounded at the ame point a the anti-
tatic mat.
In pect the mainboard carton for obviou damage. Shipping and handling may cau e damage to
your board. Be ure there are no hipping and handling damage on the board before proceeding.
After opening the mainboard carton, extract the y tem board and place it only on a grounded
anti- tatic urface component ide up. Again in pect the board for damage.
Pre down on the entire ocket IC’ to make ure that they are properly in erted. Do thi only on
with the board placed on a firm flat urface.
Warning: Do not apply power to the board if it has been damaged.
You are now ready to in tall your mainboard. The mounting hole pattern on the mainboard
matche the ATX y tem board.
It i a umed that the cha i i de igned for a tandard ATX main board mounting. Place the
cha i on the anti- tatic mat and remove the cover.
Take the pla tic clip , Nylon tand-off and crew for mounting the y tem board, and keep them
eparate.

2-7 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
2-7-1 The mainboard provide a Slot-1 for Pentium II/III proce or. The CPU on board mu t have
a fan or heat ink attached to prevent overheating.
WA NING: Without a fan or heat sink, the CPU will overheat and cause damage to both the CPU and
the motherboard.
To in tall a CPU, fir t turn off your y tem and remove it cover. Locate the Slot- 1 and place
RETENTION MODULE a following:
IMPO TANT: You must set jumper JP14,JP15 for “Bus Frequency Selection” on page6 depending on
the CPU that you install.
1. Attach heat ink to the CPU.
2. Place Part A on lot-1 and gently crew four corner on top of the mother- board.
2-7-2 The mainboard al o provide a 370-pin ZIF Socket 370. The CPU on motherboard mu t
have a fan attached to prevent overheating.
To in tall a CPU, fir t turn off your y tem and remove it cover. Locate the ZIF ocket and open
it by fir t pulling the lever ideway away from the ocket then upward to a 90-degree right angle.
In ert the CPU with the white dot a your guide. The white dot hould point toward the end of
the level. The CPU ha a corner pin for three of the four corner , the CPU will only fit in the one
7

orientation a hown a follow. With the added weight of the CPU fan, no force i required to
in ert the CPU. Once completely in erted, hold down on the fan and clo e the ocket’ lever.
IMPO TANT: You can setting the CPU ratio and Host Frequency in the BIOS setup on page 18
2-8 Expansion Cards
You mu t read the documentation come with expan ion card for any hardware or oftware
etting that may be required to etup your pecific card.
Installation Procedure:
1. Read the documentation from your expan ion card.
2. Set any nece ary jumper on your expan ion card.
3. Remove your computer’ cover.
4. Remove the bracket on the lot you intend to u e.
5. Carefully align the card’ connector and pre firmly.
6. Secure the card on the lot with the crew you remove in tep 4.
7. Replace the computer’ cover.
8. Setup the BIOS if nece ary.
9. In tall the nece ary oftware driver for your expan ion card.
Assigning IRQs for Expansion Cards
Some expan ion card may require an IRQ to operate. Generally an IRQ mu t be exclu ively
a igned to only one device. In an tandard de ign there are 16 IRQ available but mo t of them
are occupied by the y tem and leave 6 free for expan ion card .
With mo t recent device, the BIOS automatically a ign an IRQ number to PCI expan ion card .
Plea e make ure there are no any of two device u e ame IRQ , otherwi e your computer may
experience ome problem when tho e two device are in u e at the ame time.
Assigning DMA Channels for Expansion Cards
Some device may al o need to u e a DMA (Direct Memory Acce ) channel. DMA a ignment
for thi motherboard are handled the ame way a the IRQ a ignment proce de cribed above.
You can elect a DMA channel in the PCI and PnP configuration ection of the BIOS Setup utility.

CPU OST/PCI Clock: In thi item you can choo e the CPU HOST/PCI Clock. The etting
are: Default ,66/33,75/37,83/41,100/33,103/34, 112/37,124/41,133/44, 105/35,110/36,115/38,
120/40,124/31,133/33.
When the etting i :’default” the CPU HOST Clock will depend on the etting of JP14 and JP15.
If JP14,JP15 i et to 66MHz only have the choice of 66/33, 75/37, 83/41on creen.
If the JP14,JP15 i etting at 100MHz, then you can have 100/33,103/34,112/37,124/41, 133/44
105/35,110/36,115/38,120/40,133/33.
*Plea e turn off y tem power if the creen doe not have any di play after change of the etting.
Then pre and hold down “ INS ” key, and turn on y tem power again (relea e “ INS ” key till

Power Management: Thi category allow you to elect the type (or degree) of power
aving and i directly related to the following mode :
D ze M de , Standby M de , Su pend Mode , HDD Power Down
There are four election for Power Management, three of which have fixed mode etting .
Di able (default) No power management. Di able all four mode
Min. Power Saving Minimum power management. Doze Mode = 1 hr. Standby Mode
= 1 hr., Su pend Mode = 1 hr., and HDD Power Down = 15 min.
Max. Power
Saving
Maximum power management -- ONLY AVAILABLE FOR SL
CPU’S. Doze Mode = 1 min., Standby Mode = 1 min., Su pend
Mode = 1 min., and HDD Power Down = 1 min.
U er Defined Allow you to et each mode individually. When not di abled,
each of the range are from 1 min. to 1 hr. except for HDD Power
Down which range from 1 min. to 15 min. and di able.
PM Control APM: When enabled, an Advanced Power Management device will be activated
to enhance the Max. Power Saving mode and top the CPU internal clock.
If the Max. Power Saving i not enabled, thi will be pre et to No.
Video Off Method: This determines the manner in which the monitor is blanked.

Video Off After: When enabled, this feature allows the VGA adapter to operate in a
power saving mode.
N/A Monitor will remain on during power aving mode .
Su pend Monitor blanked when the y tem enter the Su pend mode.
Standby Monitor blanked when the y tem enter Standby mode.
Doze Monitor blanked when the y tem enter any power aving mode.
