WARNING
Please realize that there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including adjusting
the setting in the BIOS, applying Untied Overclocking Technology, or using the third-
party overclocking tools. Overclocking may affect your system stability, or even
cause damage to the components and devices of your system. It should be done at
your own risk and expense. We are not responsible for possible damage caused by
overclocking.

64-bit, the chipset
name will be GeForce 6150SE / nForce 430 instead of GeForce 6100 / nForce
430. However, the difference in device name under Windows
®
does not affect
any specification and feature of this motherboard.
3. Although this motherboard offers stepless control, it is not recommended to
perform over-clocking. Frequencies other than the recommended CPU bus
frequencies may cause the instability of the system or damage the CPU.
4. While CPU overheat is detected, the system will automatically shutdown.
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. To
improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal grease between the
CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC system.
5. For microphone input, this motherboard supports both stereo and mono modes.
For audio output, this motherboard supports 2-channel, 4-channel, 6-channel,
and 8-channel modes. Please check the table on page 3 for proper connection.
6. Before installing SATAII hard disk to SATAII connector, please read the “SATAII
Hard Disk Setup Guide” on page 18 to adjust your SATAII hard disk drive to
SATAII mode. You can also connect SATA hard disk to SATAII connector
directly.

Pre-installation Precautions
Take note of the following precautions before you install mother-
board components or change any motherboard settings.
1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the
motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
2. To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static
electricity, NEVER place your motherboard directly on the car-
pet or the like. Also remember to use a grounded wrist strap or
touch a safety grounded object before you handle components.
3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.
4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a
grounded antstatic pad or in the bag that comes with the
component.
5. When placing screws into the screw holes to secure the
motherboard to the chassis, please do not over-tighten the screws!
Doing so may damage the motherboard.

Step 1. Unlock the socket by lifting the lever up to a 90° angle.
Step 2. Position the CPU directly above the socket such that the CPU corner with
the golden triangle matches the socket corner with a small triangle.
Step 3. Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place.
The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU
into the socket to avoid bending of the pins.
Step 4. When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push
down the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab
to indicate that it is locked.
Step 5. Install CPU fan and heatsink. For proper installation, please kindly refer to
the instruction manuals of your CPU fan and heatsink vendors.

Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)
This motherboard is equipped with two 184-pin DDR (Double Data Rate) DIMM slots.
Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or
removing DIMMs or the system components.
Step 1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.
Step 2. Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the break
on the slot.
The DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent
damage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into
the slot at incorrect orientation.
Step 3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends fully
snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.

2.4 Easy Multi Monitor Feature
This motherboard supports Multi Monitor upgrade. With the internal onboard VGA
and the external add-on PCI Express VGA card, you can easily enjoy the benefits
of Multi Monitor feature. Please refer to the following steps to set up a multi
monitor environment:
1. Install the NVIDIA
®
PCI Express VGA card to PCIE1 (PCIE x16 slot). Please refer
to page 11 for proper expansion card installation procedures for details.
2. Connect the D-Sub input monitor cable to the VGA/D-Sub port on the I/O panel
of this motherboard. Connect another D-Sub input monitor cable to the
VGA/D-Sub connector of the add-on PCI Express VGA card. Connect the DVI-D
input monitor cable to the VGA/DVI-D connector of the add-on PCI Express VGA
card.
3. Boot your system. Press <F2> to enter BIOS setup. Enter “Share Memory”
option to adjust the memory capability to [16MB], [32MB], [64MB], [128MB], or
[256MB] to enable the function of onboard VGA/D-sub. Please make sure that
the value you select is less than the total capability of the system memory. If
you do not adjust the BIOS setup, the default value of “Share Memory”, [Auto],
will disable onboard VGA/D-Sub function when the add-on VGA card is
inserted to this motherboard.
4. Install the onboard VGA driver to your system. If you have installed the
onboard VGA driver already, there is no need to install it again.
5. Set up a multi-monitor display. Right click the desktop, choose “Properties”, and
select the “Settings” tab so that you can adjust the parameters of the multi-
monitor according to the steps below. (The item names and operation
procedures described in this step are under Windows
®
XP environment. If you
install other Windows
®
OS, the item names and operation procedures may be
similar.)
A. Click the “Identify” button to display a large number on each monitor.
B. Right-click the display icon in the Display Properties dialog that you wish to
be your primary monitor, and then select “Primary”. When you use multiple
monitors with your card, one monitor will always be Primary, and all
additional monitors will be designated as Secondary.
C. Select the display icon identified by the number 2.
D. Click “Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor”.
E. Right-click the display icon and select “Attached”, if necessary.
F. Set the “Screen Resolution” and “Color Quality” as appropriate for the

Clear CMOS Jumper
(CLRCMOS1)
(see p.2, No. 19)
Note: CLRCMOS1 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. After waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper cap to short pin2 and pin3
on CLRCMOS1 for 5 seconds. However, please do not clear the CMOS right
after you update the BIOS. If you need to clear the CMOS when you just finish
updating the BIOS, you must boot up the system first, and then shut it down
before you do the clear-CMOS action.
