Benefits of EZ-IDE: - Simple installation requiring no software driver. Some notes on usage: - Each IDE port supports only 1 Master device, no Slave devices are supported. - Disconnect the EZ-IDE bridge cable if no IDE devices are present on IDE-A/B. - Optional: SATA5 - SATA6 does not support bootable drives. 13 English Introduction Section 4 -- Thermo Stick (Optional) This mainboard is equipped with a digital thermometer capability to monitor any temperature. This is useful for measuring heat on peripherals such as VGA cards, hard disk drives, DIMMs or even on-board components such as chipset, MOSFETS, etc. 2) Thermostick sensor cable with heat-tolerant adhesive sticker bundled in the mainboard package. 3) Thunder Probe software utility. English 14 To setup Thermo Stick, 1. Insert the sensor cable to THM_ST header on the mainboard. THM-ST 2. Using the adhesive sticker, affix the sensor head of the cable to your desired point of measure. Trim the adhesive sticker to a suitable size so that it will not affect the heat dissipation of any heatsink. 3. Ensure the cable is neatly tucked away from fans or other moving parts. The temperature will be shown as below. Introduction Section 5 -- BIOS Setup 5-1 Main Menu The ROM BIOS contains a built-in Setup program which allows user to modify the basic system configuration and hardware parameters. The modified data is stored in a battery-backed CMOS, so that data will be retained even when the power is turned off. In general, the information saved in the CMOS RAM will stay unchanged unless there is a configuration change in the system, such as hard drive replacement or a device is added. If this happens you will need install a new CMOS battery and reconfigure your BIOS settings. The BIOS setup screen and description are for reference only, and may not exactly match what you see on your screen. To enter the Setup Program : Power on the computer and press the <Del> key during the POST (Power On Self Test). The BIOS CMOS SETUP UTILITY opens. The main menu displays all the major selection items. The selection is made by moving the cursor, press any direction (arrow key ) to the item and pressing the `Enter' key. An on-line help message is displayed at the bottom of the screen as the cursor is moved to various items which provides a better understanding of each function. When a selection is made, the menu of the selected item will appear so that the user can modify associated configuration parameters. For more information regarding BIOS settings refer to the complete manual in the bundled CD. 15 English Introduction 5-2 Standard CMOS Setup Choose "STANDARD CMOS FEATURES" in the CMOS SETUP UTILITY Menu.
