2. S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface) Connector

S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface) is a newest audio transfer file format, which provides impressive

quality through optical fiber and allows you to enjoy digital audio instead of analog audio. Normally there are

two S/PDIF outputs as shown, one for RCA connector, the most common one used for consumer audio

products, and the other for optical connector with better audio quality. Through a specific audio cable, you

can connect the S/PDIF connector to other end of the S/PDIF audio module, which bears S/PDIF digital

output. However, you must have a S/PDIF supported speaker with S/PDIF digital input to connect to the

S/PDIF digital output to make the most out of this function.

5. Setting CPU Voltage & Frequency

CPU Core Voltage Auto Detectable

The CPU core voltage will be automatically detected. 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

Note: Some CPU fans do not

have sensor pin so they cannot

support fan monitoring.

CPU Fan Connector

Warning: Intel®845 G chipset

supports maximum 400/533MHz

(100/133MHz*4) system bus and

66MHzAGP clock; higher clock

setting may cause serious

system damage.

Caution: By updating your motherboard, you are taking a risk

of BIOS flash failure. If your motherboard is working stable,

and there are no major bugs that had been fixed by a latter

BIOS revision, we recommend that you DO NOT try to upgrade

your BIOS.

If you intent on upgrading, PLEASE BE SURE to get the right

BIOS revision for the right motherboard model to avoid any

ossibility failure.

12. BIOS Upgrade under Windows environment

With outstanding R&D ability of AOpen, we now bring you a whole new BIOS Flash wizard

---- EZWinFlash. With an eye to users convenience, EZWinFlash combines the BIOS

binary code and flash module together, so the only thing you have to do is just clicking on

the utility you downloaded from web and let it helps you complete the flash process

automatically. EZWinFlash detects your motherboard and checks the BIOS version

cleverly to prevent your system from any possible failure. Moreover, EZWinFlash has been

taken into consideration to go with any windows platform you might be using, no matter i

you’re using Windows 95/98, 98SE/ME, NT4.0/2000, or even the latest Windows XP.

In the meanwhile, in order to provide a much more user-friendly operating environment,

AOpen EZWinFlash is natively designed to have multi-language function to provide easier

way for users’ usage in changing BIOS setting.

11. Installing LAN Driver (AX4G-N only)

Note: The model name on this BIOS picture is for reference only. It may not be the

exact model name.

10. 10/100 Mbps LAN onboard (AX4G-N only)

Green/ACT

Orange/Speed

The South Bridge ICH4 includes a fast Ethernet controller on chip. On the strength of Intel

82562 (Kinnereth) PHY on board, which is a highly-integrated Platform LAN Connect device,

it provides 10/100M bps Ethernet for office and home use, the Ethernet RJ45 connector is

located on top of USB connectors. The green LED indicates the link mode, it lights when

linking to network and blinking when transferring data. The orange LED indicates the transfer

mode, and it lights when data is transferring in 100Mbps mode. To enable or disable this

function, you may simply adjust it through BIOS.

You can install LAN Driver with this Intel PRO Network Connection easily.

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.

13. Power-on and Load BIOS Setup

14. AOpen Bonus Pack CD 16. BIOS Upgrade

AOpen Easy Flash is more user-friendly than traditional flash method. The BIOS binary

file and flash routine are combined together and you simply run a single file to complete

the flash process.

1. Download new BIOS upgrade zipped file from AOpen's web site. For example,

AX4GN102.ZIP.

2. Run shareware PKUNZIP (http://www.pkware.com) which supports

miscellaneous operation systems to extract the binary BIOS file and the flash

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

3. Save the unzipped file into a bootable floppy disk.

For example, AX4GN102.BIN & AX4GN102.EXE

4. Reboot the system to DOS mode without loading any memory handler (such as

EMM386) or device driver. It needs around 520K free memory space.

5. Execute A:> AX4GN102 and the program will do the rest of it.

DO NOT turn off the power during FLASH PROCESS until you are asked to!!

6. Reboot system and press <Del> to enter BIOS Setup, Choose "Load Setup

Defaults", then “Save & Exit Setup” and finish the BIOS upgrade.
