Chapter 1. Getting Started

Introduction

Congratulations on choosing the KM400TA Series mainboards! The series include KM400TA PRO

and KM400TA. These are based on VIA® KT400A and VIA® VT8235 chipsets. It also supports

AMD®Athlon XPTM/ AthlonTM/ DuronTM/ BartonTM Processors with a FSB (Front Side Bus)

frequency of 200/ 266/ 333 MHz.

The KM400TA Series provide 2 sockets using 184 pin DDR SDRAM with a total capacity of up to

2GB. You can install unbuffered & non-ECC DDR400/ 333/ 266/ 200 (PC3200/ 2700/ 2100/ 1600)

SDRAM. They support 64 bit single channel memory bus with a total capacity of up to 2 GB.

The KM400TA Series provide one AGP Slot for 4X/ 8X (1.5V only) AGP cards.

The KM400TA Series include built in IDE facilities that support Ultra ATA 33/66/100/133. The

KM400TA Series also come with an Audio Codec (VIA VT1616) which supports high quality 6

channel audio (Super 5.1 Channel Audio Effect).

The KM400TA Series also include CPU Over Temperature Protection (OTP). When CPU

temperature rises above normal values, the system will automatically shut down to protect your

system from overheating. But the OTP is only functional when using an Athlon XPTM or BartonTM

CPU.

The KM400TA Series also comes with 6 USB 2.0 ports.

The KM400TA PRO also comes with a LAN Chip (VIA VT6103) and provides a back panel LAN

port. More information in the section of Back Panel Configuration.

The company’s 3 Year Limited Warranty for this product covers both labor costs and replacement

parts during the 1st year. Only labor costs are covered during the 2nd and 3rd years (replacement

parts will be charged during the 2nd and 3rd years).

All of the information in this manual only for reference. This specification is subject to change

without notice.

Watch Dog Timer:

zThe mainboard contains a special feature called the “Watch Dog Timer” which is used to

detect when the system is unable to handle over-clocking configurations during POST

stage. Once detected the system will reset the configurations and reboot the system after

five seconds. On most systems you would need to remove the cover of your system and

re-jumper the clear CMOS switches on the mainboard when your system encounters

over-clocking problems. With the “Watch Dog Timer”, overclocking settings will be

automatically cleared and reset.
