Jp1 designed on board for CPU clock select and 100MHz CPU
overclocking. With Jp1, user can choose the way for a 100MHz CPU to
run an overclock on board.
2-8.1 Jp1: CPU Clock/Overclock Select
1. If Jp1 is set to 1-2 closed, the auto-detect
mode will recognize the CPU clock
automatically and send the signal to system
chips. No overclocking will be implimented
in this case. That is, a 100MHz CPU will boot
system with 100MHz CPU clock and provide
4X100 MHz system bus. A 133MHz CPU will
boot system with 133MHz and provide a
4X133 MHz system bus.
2. If Jp1 is set to 2-3 closed, CPU is set at
100MHz, indicating that 133MHz overclock
is not desired. The CPU will boot system with
100MHz even if a 133MHz CPU is used.
3. If Jp1 is set to 1-2-3 all open, CPU is set at
133MHz, indicating that 133MHz overclock
is desired. The CPU will try to boot system
with 133MHz even if a 100MHz CPU is used.

If a pin-header (of 2 or more pins) is
designed in such a way that its pins
can be closed or linked together to
set up a specific function, this header
is called a jumper in this manual.
A 3-pin Jumper
A 2-pin Jumper cap to link
two header-pins together.
• A Jumper is usually but not necessarily given a JpX legend.

• Do not remove the jumper cap when power is on. Always
make sure the power is off before changing any jumper settings.
Otherwise, mainboard could be damaged.
How to tackle the Jumpers:
• In the Jumper setting diagram, all jumper pins covered with
black marks stand for closed pins by jumper caps.
