1. Pull up the CPU socket lever and up to

90-degree angle.

2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look fo

a (golden) cut edge on the CPU uppe

interface. Match Pin 1 and cut edge.

Then insert the CPU into the socket.

3. Press down the CPU socket lever and

finish CPU installation.

Plug in the CPU fan cable to the 3-pin CPUFAN1 connector. If you have chassis fan, you

can also plug it on SYSFAN2 (FAN2) or SYSFAN3 (AUX Fan) connector.

5. Setting CPU Voltage & Frequency

Setting CPU Core Voltage

This motherboard supports CPU VID function. The CPU core voltage will be automaticall

detected and the range is from 1.05V to 1.825V. It is not necessary to set CPU core

voltage.

Setting CPU Frequency

This motherboard is CPU jumper-less design, you can set CPU frequency through the

BIOS setup, and no jumpers or switches are needed.

BIOS Setup > Frequency / Voltage Control > CPU Speed Setting

Core Frequency = CPU FSB Clock * CPU Ratio

3. Installing Processor

Note: If you do not match the CPU

socket Pin 1 and CPU cut edge well, it

may damage the CPU.

Note: Some CPU fans do not have

sensor pin so they cannot support fan

monitoring.

The IrDA connector can be configured to support wireless infrared module, with this

module and application software such as Laplink or Windows 95 Direct Cable

Connection, the user can transfer files to or from laptops, notebooks, PDA devices and

printers. This connector supports HPSIR (115.2Kbps, 2 meters) and ASK-IR (56Kbps).

Install the infrared module onto the IrDA connector and enable the infrared function from

BIOS Setup, UART mode select, make sure to have the correct orientation when you plug

in the IrDA connector.

Connect 34-pin floppy cable and 40-pin, 80-wire IDE cable to floppy connector FDC and

IDE connector. Be careful of the pin1 orientation. Wrong orientation may cause system

damage.

ttach the power LED, speaker, and reset switch connectors to

the corresponding pins. If you enable “Suspend Mode” item in

BIOS Setup, the ACPI & Power LED will keep flashing while the

system is in suspend mode.

10. Front Audio Connector

If the housing has been designed with an audio port on the front panel, you’ll be able to

connect onboard audio to front panel through this connector. By the way, please remove

the jumper cap from the Front Audio Connector before you connect the cable. Do no

remove this yellow jumper cap if housing without an audio port on the front panel.

The AUX-IN connector is used to connect MPEG

Audio cable from MPEG card to onboard sound.

The MODEM-CN connector is used to connect

Mono In/ Mic Out cable from internal modem card to

onboard sound circuit.

The CD-IN connector is used to connect CDAudio

cable from CDROM or DVD drive to onboard sound.

11. Dr. Voice (AX4B Pro only)

The Dr. Voice is a great feature of AX4B Pro motherboard, which can identifies what kind of

problems had occurred in the operating system. It can even clearly “tell” whether there is a

component issue or an installed issue, such as CPU, memory module, VGA, PCI add-on

card, FDD, HDD or keyboard by voice. The Dr. Voice provides four kinds of language

versions, English, German, Japanese and Chinese for your choosing. You can select

preferred language version by JP15 & JP16 jumpers. However, if you want to disable this

function, you may also set JP1 and JP2 to pin 2-3 to disable to buzzer and speaker from

making out voices respectively.

Recently, many viruses have been found that they may destroy bios code and data area.

Therefore, this motherboard implements a very effective hardware protection method that does

not involve any software or BIOS coding, hence it is 100% virus free. You may restore the

originally mounted BIOS with 2nd BIOS ROM by setting JP30 to pin 2-3 if it fails to act normally.

This motherboard comes with one BIOS ROM, you may contact our local distributor or reseller

for purchasing the extra BIOS ROM. Please visit our website: english.aopen.com.tw for details.

fter you finish the setting of jumpers and connect correct cables. Power on

and enter the BIOS Setup, press <Del> during POST (Power On Self Test).

Choose "Load Setup Defaults" for recommended optimal performance.

Warning: The upgrade of new BIOS will permanently replace your original BIOS

content after flashing. The original BIOS setting and Win95/Win98 PnP information

will be refreshed and you probably need to re-configure your system.

This motherboard comes with AD1885 AC97 CODEC, you can find the audio driver from

the Bonus Pack CD disc auto-run menu.

17. BIOS Upgrade under Windows Environment

You may accomplish BIOS upgrade procedure with EzWinFlash by the following steps,

and it’s STRONGLY RECOMMMANDED to close all the applications before you start the

upgrading.

1. Download the new version of BIOS package zip file from AOpen official web site.

(ex: http://english.aopen.com.tw)

2. Unzip the download BIOS package (ex: WAX4BP102.ZIP) with WinZip

(http://www.winzip.com) in Windows environment.

3. Save the unzipped files into a folder, for example, WAX4BP102.EXE &

WAX4BP102.BIN.

4. Double click on the WAX4BP102.EXE, EzWinFlash will detect the model name and

BIOS version of your motherboard. If you had got the wrong BIOS, you will not be

allowed to proceed with the flash steps.

5. You may select preferred language in the main menu, then click [Start Flash] to star

the BIOS upgrade procedure.

6. EzWinFlash will complete all the process automatically, and a dialogue box will pop

up to ask you to restart Windows. You may click [YES] to reboot Windows.

7. Press <Del> at POST to enter BIOS setup, choose "Load Setup Defaults", then

“Save & Exit Setup”. Done!

If you encounter any trouble to boot you system, follow the procedures

accordingly to resolve the problem.

Part Number and Serial Number

The Part Number and Serial number are printed on bar code label. You can find this

bar code label on the outside packing, or on component side of PCB. For example:

The problem was probably caused

by power supply or motherboard

failure. Please contact your reselle

or local distributor for repairing.

Perhaps your VGA card or monito

is defective.

Yes

It is very possible that your keyboard

is defective.

During system rebooting, press Del to enter BIOS Setup. Choose

“Load Setup Default".

The problem should be caused by the

IDE cables or HDD itself.

Re-install Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows NT.

Yes

Turn off the power and unplug the AC power cable, then remove all

of the addon cards and cables, including VGA, IDE, FDD, COM1,

COM2 and Printer.

the power supply and CPU fan

work properly.

Start

Check if there is display.

Press Ctrl, and Alt key at the

same time, hold them and then

press Del to see if the

stem reboots.

Turn off the system and

re-connect the IDE cable.

Check if the system can
