CAUTION! 1. This motherboard supports Untied Overclocking Technology. Please read "Untied Overclocking Technology" on page 23 for details. 2. Both NVIDIA® GeForce 6100 / nForce 430 and GeForce 6150SE / nForce 430 refer to the same chipset. If you install NVIDIA® driver with 91.63 version or above under Windows® 2000 / XP / XP 64-bit, or install NVIDIA® driver with 97.19 version or above under Windows® VistaTM / VistaTM 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. 7. Power Management for USB 2.0 works fine under Microsoft® Windows® VistaTM 64-bit / VistaTM / XP 64-bit / XP SP1 or SP2 / 2000 SP4. 8. Microsoft® Windows® VistaTM / VistaTM 64-bit driver keeps on updating now. As long as we have the latest driver, we will update it to our website in the future.
