HOT-591mainboard isa highly integrated IBM PC/AT compatible AT form-factor system
boarddesigned to meet the industry's most demanding desktop applications. Based on the
VIA'sVP3 chipset.
HOT-591accept AMD K5, K6, Intel Pentium P54C, Pentium MMX, IDT-C6 and Cyrix/
IBM6x86, 6x86L, 6x86MX processors and also featureshigh-performance pipelinedburst
secondarycache memory supportwith size of512KB. Thememory subsystem isdesigned
tosupport upto 256MBof EDORAM, StandardFast PageDRAM andSDRAM instandard
72-pinSIMM socket and 168-pin 3.3 V DIMM socket.
HOT-591is equipped withan Accelerated GraphicsPort (AGP) slot,a high performance
interconnectfor graphic-intensiveapplication, suchas 3Dapplications. The AGPis inde-
pendentof the PCIbus andis designed toexclusively use with graphical-display devices.
HOT-591provides a new level of I/O integration. VIA VP3 chipset provides increased
integrationandimprovedperformance over other chipsetdesigns.
TheVIA's VP3 chipset provides an integrated Bus Mastering IDE controller withtwo high
performanceUltra 33DMA IDE interfaces for up to four IDE devices.
TheonboardI/Ocontrollerprovides the standard PCI/Ofunctions:floppyinterface, two
FIFOserial ports,an IrDAdevice portand aSPP/EPP/ECP capableparallel port.
Upto three PCI local bus slots provide a high bandwidth datapath for data-movement
intensivefunctions suchas graphics,and up to three ISA slots complete the I/O function.
HOT-591provides the foundation for cost effective, high performance, highly expandable
platforms,which deliver the latest in Pentium processor and I/O standard.
HOT-591Mainboard is carefully designed for the demandingPC user who wants high
performanceand many intelligentfeatures in acompact package:

HOT-591 mainboard supports jumper JP6 for
dischargingmainboard’sCMOS memory.
Thisjumper can clear the CMOSdata stored
in the subsystem chip. To clear the CMOS data
pleasefollow listedsteps:
1) Turn off the PC,
2)Remove thejumper cap from JP2 pin 1-2,
3)Insert the jumper cap to JP2 pin 2-3
for a brief while,
4)Remove thejumper cap from JP2 pin 2-3,
5)Reinsert the jumper cap to JP2 pin 1-2,
