FCC and DOC Statement on Class B

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the

limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC

rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a

residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can ra-

diate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in ac-

cordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interfer-

ence to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee

that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this

equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television

reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off

and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference

by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and the re-

ceiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different

from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio TV technician for

help.

Notice:

1. The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the

party responsible for compliance could void the user's author-

ity to operate the equipment.

2. Shielded interface cables must be used in order to comply

with the emission limits.

Chapter1 -Introduction

Introduction

AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port)

AGP is an interface designed to support high performance 3D

graphics cards. It utilizes a dedicated pipeline to access system

memory for texturing, z-buffering and alpha blending. The univer-

sal AGP slot supports AGP 8x with up to 2132MB/sec. bandwidth

and AGP 4x with up to 1066MB/sec. bandwidth for 3D graphics

applications. AGP in this system board will deliver faster and bet-

ter graphics to your PC.

Onboard Graphics Features

• Bi-directional 16-bit data bus

• Performs 1GB/s bandwidth in 133MHz x 4 mode

• 3D graphics accelerator

• Supports Microsoft®DirectSound/DirectSound 3D

• AC’97 supported with full duplex, independent sample rate

converter for audio recording and playback

• S/PDIF-in/out interface

• 6-channel audio output

S/PDIF

S/PDIF is a standard audio file transfer format that transfers digital

audio signals to a device without having to be converted first to

an analog format. This prevents the quality of the audio signal

from degrading whenever it is converted to analog. S/PDIF is usu-

ally found on digital audio equipment such as a DAT machine or

audio processing device. The S/PDIF connector on the system

board sends surround sound and 3D audio signal outputs to am-

Introduction

plifiers and speakers and to digital recording devices like CD re-

corders.

6-channel Audio

The 6-channel audio output function is supported by using the

audio jacks at the rear panel and configuring the audio driver.

Please refer to chapters 2 and 4

SATA IDE Interface with RAID (661FX-MLV only)

Serial ATA is a storage interface that is compliant with SATA 1.0

specification. With speed of up to 1.5Gbps, it improves hard drive

performance even in data intensive environments such as audio/

video, consumer electronics and entry-level servers.

Introduction

USB Ports

The system board supports USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports. USB 1.1

supports 12Mb/second bandwidth while USB 2.0 supports

480Mb/second bandwidth providing a marked improvement in

device transfer speeds between your computer and a wide range

of simultaneously accessible external Plug and Play peripherals.

BIOS

• Award BIOS, Windows®98SE/2000/ME/XP Plug and Play

compatible

• Supports SCSI sequential boot-up

• Flash EPROM for easy BIOS upgrades

• Supports DMI 2.0 function

• 2Mbit flash memory

Desktop Management Interface (DMI)

The system board comes with a DMI 2.0 built into the BIOS. The

DMI utility in the BIOS automatically records various information

about your system configuration and stores these information in

the DMI pool, which is a part of the system board's Plug and Play

BIOS. DMI, along with the appropriately networked software, is

designed to make inventory, maintenance and troubleshooting of

computer systems easier.

Rear Panel I/O Ports (PC 99 color-coded connectors)
