TRADEMARK All products and company names are trademarks or registered trademarks of their respective holders. The specification is subject to change without notice. V034 Introduction Chapter 1 Introduction This motherboard is a high performance system hardware based on Intel Pentium processor and is equipped with an AGP slot, four PCI slots, three standard ISA slots, Super Multi-I/O controller and dual port PCI-IDE connectors for the future expansion. The hardware dimension is 305mm x 230mm with a four-layer-design technology. Specification VIA Apollo MVP3 AGP/PCIset chipset.

The following figures and table provides all possible memory combinations. DIMM1 DIMM2 SIMM1 SIMM2 DIMM 1 BANK 0 8MB 16MB 32MB x 1 64MB 128MB DIMM 2 BAMK 1 8MB 16MB 32MB x 1 64MB 128MB DIMM 3 or SIMM1&2 BANK 2 8MB or 16MB 32MB x 1 64MB 128MB 8MB 16MB x 2 32MB This motherboard supports 2 kinds of powerful and flexible SDRAM frequency selections. By implementing the VCS (Virtual Clock Synchronization) technology, this motherboard refers to the use of delay-lock-loop (DLL) to enable synchronous and pseudosynchronous operation of the processor and DRAM, AGP and PCI buses. JP5 1 SDRAM Clock Selection 1-2 : Fixed as 66MHz 2-3 : SDRAM Clock = CPU Bus Clcok Jumper's position: 1-2 : Pseudo-synchronous Status(Fixed as 66MHz) A more stable and compatible operation condition for non-100MHz based SDRAM when you are using 100MHz based CPU. This setting is suitable for those users who are like to remain the usage of current SDRAM module. 2-3 : Synchronous Status(SDRAM Clock= CPU Bus Clock) Increasing the bus speeds from the traditional 66MHz to 100MHz greatly improves system performance because the speed at which data traveling between the CPU and memory is increased by 50%. Please make sure you are using 125MHz(-8) based or above SDRAM module. 21 21 21 21 DIMM3 21 21 21 21 21 21 21 21 21 21 21 21 > BANK 0 > BANK 1 > BANK 2 > BANK 2 TOTAL MEMORY MAX. = 384MB Hardware Design 2-5 External Modem Ring-in Power ON and Keyboard Power ON Functions On the basis of bounded functions in I/O chipset, the two serial ports are able to support the External Modem Ring-in Power ON function. Once users connect the external modem to COM1 or COM2, this motherboard allows users to turn on their system through the remote and host's dial-up control. Exclusive Keyboard Power ON Function To innovate a unique feature to benefit users, we devoted ourselves to create the easiest and most convenient way to turn on your system based on the ATX power supply. This function is available only under system being connected to ATX power supply. How to work with it Step 1: Please place JP4 at the position 2-3 after you finished the system installation. [. . . ] With our EP-51MVP3E-M motherboard, the 5. 0VSB standby power only has to be > = 0. 1A (100mA) then you can enjoy this unique benefit. However, the ATX power supply which is < 0. 1 (100mA) is still applicable to your system by placed JP4 at the position 1-2 to disable this feature. [. . . ]
