To prevent chipsets from electrostatic discharge damage, please take care of the following jobs with precautions: Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static packaging until you are ready to install them. Before holding the board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system unit chassis for a few seconds. It discharges static electricity from your body. Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component stores, when handling boards and components.

Before you start installing the mainboard, please make sure you follow the instructions below: Prepare a dry and stable working environment with sufficient lighting. Always disconnect the system from power outlet before operation. Before you take the mainboard out from anti-static bag, ground yourself properly by touching any safely grounded appliance, or use grounded wrist strap to remove the static charge. Avoid touching the components on mainboard or the rear side of the board unless necessary. Hold the board on the edge, do not try to bend or flex the board. Do not leave any unfastened small parts inside the case after installation. Loose parts will cause short circuits which may damage the equipment. Keep the system from dangerous area, such as heat source, humid air, and water. Please switch on/off the machine normally. That is, DO NOT pull out power cord directly from the mainboard or the system may damage. 1.2 PACKAGE CHECKLIST Mini-ITX Mainboard x 1 Fully Setup Driver CD x 1 I/O Bracket x 1 SATA Cable x 1 (Optional) 1 1.3 MAINBOARD SPECIFICATION Specification Intel CPU On-board CPU Optional for: Intel Atom D525 @1.8GHz dual core D425 @1.8GHz (TWP 10W) Pineview-D Processor FSB Supports up 800 MHz Chipset Intel NM10 Express Chipset Max Shared Video Memory is 384 MB Supports dual displays (Extended mode) Graphic Intel Pineview-D integrated graphics engine as below: —24bit LVDS (by CH7036) —RGB (Support up to WXGA+ 2048x1536/60Hz) 128pin type ITE IT8718 + FINTEK F81216D Super I/O Provides the most commonly used legacy Super I/O functionality.

The Setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration and save these settings to CMOS RAM. The power of CMOS RAM is supplied by a battery so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off. Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. This system controls most of the input and output devices such as keyboard, mouse, serial ports and disk drives. BIOS activates at the first stage of the booting process, loading and executing the operating system. Some additional features, such as virus and password protection or chipset fine-tuning options are also included in BIOS. The rest of this manual will to guide you through the options and settings in BIOS Setup. Plug and Play Support This AMI BIOS supports the Plug and Play Version 1.0A specification. EPA Green PC Support This AMI BIOS supports Version 1.03 of the EPA Green PC specification. ACPI Support AMI ACPI BIOS support Version 1.0/2.0 of Advanced Configuration and Power interface specification (ACPI). It provides ASL code for power management and device configuration capabilities as defined in the ACPI specification, developed by Microsoft, Intel and Toshiba. 19 PCI Bus Support This AMI BIOS also supports Version 2.3 of the Intel PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) local bus specification. DRAM Support DDR2 SDRAM (Double Data Rate II Synchronous DRAM) is supported. Supported CPUs This AMI BIOS supports the Intel CPU. Using Setup When starting up the computer, press <Del> during the Power-On Self-Test (POST) to enter the BIOS setup utility. In the BIOS setup utility, you will see General Help description at the top right corner, and this is providing a brief description of the selected item. Navigation Keys for that particular menu are at the bottom right corner, and you can use these keys to select item and change the settings. General Help Navigation Keys Notice z z z 20 The default BIOS settings apply for most conditions to ensure optimum performance of the motherboard. If the system becomes unstable after changing any settings, please load the default settings to ensure system’s compatibility and stability. Use Load Setup Default under the Exit Menu. For better system performance, the BIOS firmware is being continuously updated. The BIOS information described in this manual is for your reference only. The actual BIOS information and settings on board may be slightly different from this manual. The content of this manual is subject to be changed without notice. We will not be responsible for any mistakes found in this user’s manual and any system damage that may be caused by wrong-settings. 3.1 MAIN MENU Once you enter AMI BIOS Setup Utility, the Main Menu will appear on the screen providing an overview of the basic system information.

Before declaring the motherboard beyond all hope, eliminate the possibility of interference by a malfunctioning add-in card. Remove all expansion cards except the video adapter. z If beep codes are generated when all other expansion cards are absent, consult your system manufacturer’s technical support. z If beep codes are not generated when all other expansion cards are absent, one of the add-in cards is causing the malfunction. Insert the cards back into the system one at a time until the problem happens again. This will reveal the malfunctioning card.
