[. . . ] Plug the power cord and turn ON the computer. Hold down the <Del> key during the boot process and enter BIOS setup to re-enter data. Except when clearing the RTC RAM, never remove the cap on CLRTC jumper default position. Removing the cap will cause system boot failure! CLRTC 12 Normal (Default) 23 Clear CMOS Clear RTC RAM · You do not need to clear the RTC when the system hangs due to overclocking. For system failure due to overclocking, use the C. P. R. Shut down and reboot the system so the BIOS can automatically reset parameter settings to default values. Due to the chipset limitation, AC power off is required prior using C. P. R. You must turn off and on the power supply or unplug and plug the power cord before reboot the system. · ASUS V-Series M2V890 4-3 3. Keyboard power (3-pin KBPWR) This jumper allows you to enable or disable the keyboard wake-up feature. Set this jumper to pins 2-3 (+5VSB) to wake up the computer when you press a key on the keyboard (the default is the Space Bar). This feature requires an ATX power supply that can supply at least 500 mA on the +5VSB lead, and a corresponding setting in the BIOS. KBPWR 2 1 +5V (Default) 3 2 +5VSB Fan connectors 4. 4 1. Connectors Floppy disk drive connector (34-1 pin FLOPPY) This connector is for the provided floppy disk drive (FDD) signal cable. Insert one end of the cable to this connector, then connect the other end to the signal connector at the back of the floppy disk drive. Pin 5 on the connector is removed to prevent incorrect cable connection when using a FDD cable with a covered Pin 5. FLOPPY NOTE:Orient the red markings on the floppy ribbon cable to PIN1. PIN1 Floppy disk drive connector 4-4 Chapter 4: Motherboard info 2. Serial ATA connectors (7-pin SATA1, SATA2) These connectors are for the Serial ATA signal cables for Serial ATA hard disk and optical disk drives that allows up to 150 MB/s data transfer rates, faster than the standard parallel ATA with 133 MB/s (Ultra DMA133). If you install Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0, RAID 1, and JBOD configuration through the onboard VIA® VT8237R Plus controller.

The RAID function of these connectors is set to [Disabled] by default. See section "5. 4. 4 Onboard Device Configuration" for details. ASUS V-Series M2V890 4-5 3 IDE connector (40-1 pin PRI_EIDE) The onboard IDE connectors are for Ultra DMA 133/100/66 signal cable(s). There are three connectors on each Ultra DMA 133/100/66 signal cable: blue, black, and gray. Connect the blue connector to the motherboard's IDE connector, then select one of the following modes to configure your device(s).

This prevents incorrect insertion when you connect the IDE cable. Use the 80-conductor IDE cable for Ultra DMA 133/100/66 IDE devices. · If any device jumper is set as "Cable-Select", make sure all other device jumpers have the same setting. 4. CPU Fan Connectors (4-pin CPU_FAN) 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. 4-6 Chapter 4: Motherboard info PIN1 CPU_FAN CPU FAN PWM CPU FAN IN CPU FAN PWR GND Fan connectors 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! 5.
