2.2 AMAZING WAYS TO POWER ON THE PC SYSTEM

When the mainboard has been installed successfully, there are several ways to

power on the system. Please read the following description for all the details.

POWER BUTTON

The power button can be programmed by COMS setup program and it has different

features. Please refer to page 3-15 for detail function description.

Note: This power button can not be used to power-on the PC system if the

”Password“ is selected in the "Power On Function" to power on your

system. (please refer to Section 4.8 for the “INTEGRATED

PERIPHERALS“ in the CMOS setup.) However, you can always use the

power button to turn off the power.

¨KEYBOARD (PASSWORD OR HOT KEY)

This mainboard allows you to use your personal password or a combination of hot

key to power on your PC system. When the jumper setting on JP1 is “Enabled”, the

keyboard OnNow function will be activated. Under this circumstance, this

mainboard will keeps scanning the keyboard status waiting for the correct password

or hot key input even when the system power is off (the stand-by 5V is still working

and the power LED on the keyboard is still active). If you have selected the

Password to power on the PC system in the BIOS setup program, the only way to

power on the PC system will be the correct password. ( you can not use the power

button on the front panel to power on the PC system.) When you have selected the

keyboard hot key to power on the PC system, you will be able to use keyboard hot

key to power on the PC system. ( you can use the power button to power on the PC

system as well.) ( Please refer to Section 4.8.- "Power On function")

When the “Password” and “Hot KEY” is selected, you will have to reboot the PC

system to activate the setting, when you see the POST (Power On Self Test) is

completed, the setting is changed and stored in the CMOS memory. Having finished

the procedure, you may turn the power off and then you can use the keyboard to

power-on the PC system afterward.

In case that you forget the “Password” or “Hot Key”, disconnect the AC power for

30-60 seconds then re-connect the AC power to the PC system, and then you can use

the PW switch to power on the PC system again. Or you may use JP9 setting to clear

the Keyboard password.
