You can install a 5. 25-inch drive and a 3. 5-inch drive with various capacities. The floppy diskette drive cable has one type of connector for a 5. 25-inch drive and another type of connector for a 3. 5-inch drive. Install the FDD into the drive cage in your system case. Plug the FDD cable into FLOPPY (A): Note: Ribbon cable connectors are usually keyed so that they can only be installed correctly on the device connector. If the connector is not keyed, make sure that you match the pin-1 side of the cable connector with the pin-1 side of the device connector. Each connector has the pin-1 side clearly marked. The pin-1 side of each ribbon cable is always marked with a colored stripe on the cable. Plug the correct connector on the FDD cable for the 5. 25-inch or 3. 5-inch drive into the FDD connector (B). Plug a power cable from the case power supply into the power connector on the FDD (C). 2. When you first start up your system, go immediately to the Setup Utility to configure the floppy diskette drives that you have installed. Installing Add-on Cards The slots in this mainboard are designed to hold expansion cards and connect them to the system bus. Expansion slots are a means of adding or enhancing the mainboard's features and capabilities. With these efficient facilities, you can increase the mainboard's capabilities by adding hardware which performs tasks that are not part of the basic system. 18 DVO Slot PCI Slots CNR Slot This slot supports the DVO (Digital Video Output) function (without AGP support) for a TV or video monitor displaying. PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI interface. This slot is used to insert CNR cards with Modem and Audio functionality.

Follow these instructions to install an add-on card: 1. Remove a blanking plate from the system case corresponding to the slot you are going to use. 19 2. Install the edge connector of the add-on card into the expansion slot. Ensure that the edge connector is correctly seated in the slot. 3. Secure the metal bracket of the card to the system case with a screw. Note: For some add-on cards, for example graphics adapters and network adapters, you have to install drivers and software before you can begin using the add-on card.
