Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it back again. [. . . ] For the voltage information of your AGP card, please check with the AGP card vendors.

Please read the documentation of the expansion card and make necessary hardware settings for the card before you start the installation. STEP 3: Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is completely seated on the slot. STEP 4: Fasten the card to the chassis with screws. The illustration shows how jumpers are setup. The illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1 and pin2 are "Short" when jumper cap is placed on these 2 pins. Short pin2, pin3 to enable +5VSB (standby) for PS/2 or USB wake up events. Note: To select +5VSB, it requires 2 Amp and higher standby current provided by power supply. Note: If the jumpers JL1 and JR1 are short, both the front panel and the rear panel audio connectors can work. Note: CLRCMOS2 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. the data in CMOS includes system setup information such as system password , date , time , and system setup parameters. To clear and reset the system parameters to default setup, please turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power supply.
