Turn OFF your computer and unplug the power cord. Move the jumper cap from pins 1-2 (default) to pins 2-3. Insert a floppy disk with the original or updated BIOS file. Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer. The system searches for the BIOS file in the floppy then reflashes the BIOS. Replace the jumper cap from pins 2-3 to pins 1-2. Hold down the <Del> key during the boot process and enter BIOS setup to re-enter data.

The USBPWR56 and USBPWR78 jumper is for the internal USB connectors that you can connect to additional USB ports USBPW12 USBPW34 12 +5V R P31SG USBPW56 USBPW78 12 23 +5VSB (Default) 23 P31SG USB Device Wake Up +5V +5VSB (Default) · The USB device wake-up feature requires a power supply that can provide 500mA on the +5VSB lead for each USB port; otherwise, the system would not power up. The total current consumed must NOT exceed the power supply capability (+5VSB) whether under normal condition or in sleep mode. · 1-22 Chapter 1: Hardware information 1. 10 Connectors 1 2 34 5 6 7 13 12 11 10 9 8 1. 10. 1 Rear panel connectors 1.

CPU and Chassis fan connectors (4-pin CPU_FAN, 4-pin CHA_FAN1) The fan connectors support cooling fans of 350mA~740mA (8. 88W max. ) or a total of 1A~2. 22A (26. 64W max. ) at +12V. Connect the fan cables to the fan connectors on the motherboard, making sure that the black wire of each cable matches the ground pin of the connector. Do not forget to connect the fan cables to the fan connectors. Insufficient air flow inside the system may damage the motherboard components. DO NOT place jumper caps on the fan connectors.

ATX power connectors (24-pin ATXPWR1 and 4-pin ATX12V) These connectors are for ATX power supply plugs. The power supply plugs are designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the proper orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit. · · Do not forget to connect the 4-pin ATX +12 V power plug; otherwise, the system will not boot. Use of a PSU with a higher power output is recommended when configuring a system with more power-consuming devices. The system may become unstable or may not boot up if the power is inadequate. Make sure that your power supply unit (PSU) can provide at least the minimum power required by your system.
