CAUTION!

1. 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.

2. Do NOT use a 3.3V AGP card on the AGP slot of this motherboard!

It may cause permanent damage!

3. Power Management for USB 2.0 works fine under Microsoft®Windows®

XP SP1/2000 SP4. It may not work properly under Microsoft®Windows®

98/ME. Please refer to Microsoft®official document at

http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hwdev/bus/USB/USB2support.mspx

4. 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. The CPU host frequency of this motherboard is determined by

jumper-setting. You must adjust “FSB Select Jumpers” according to the

FSB of your AMD CPU before you set the “CPU Host Frequency” con-

figuration as “Manual” in BIOS. See page 9 for the details of “FSB Select

Jumpers” adjustment, and page 25 of “User Manual” in the Support CD for

“CPU Host Frequency” configuration.

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

motherboardtothe chassis, please do notover-tighten the screws!

Doing so may damage the motherboard.

CPU Installation

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 its marked corner

matches the base of the socket lever.

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)

K7VT4APro motherboard provides two 184-pinDDR (DoubleData Rate)DIMM slots.

Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or

removing DIMMs or the system components.

Step 1. Unlock aDIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.

Step 2. Align aDIMM on the slot such that the notch on theDIMM 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 theDIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends fully

snap back in place and theDIMM is properly seated.

2.3 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)2.3 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)

2.3 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots)

There are 5 PCI slots and 1 AGP slot on K7VT4A Pro motherboard.

PCI slots: PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI

interface.

AGP slot: TheAGP slot is used to install a graphics card. TheASRockAGP slot has

a special design of clasp that can securely fasten the inserted graphics

card.

Please do NOT use a 3.3VAGP card on theAGP slot of this motherboard!

It may cause permanent damage! For the voltage information of your

graphics card, please check with the graphics card vendors.

Installing an expansion cardInstalling an expansion card

Installing an expansion card

Step 1. Before installing the expansion card, please make sure that the power

supply is switched off or the power cord is unplugged. Please read the

documentation of the expansion card and make necessary hardware

settings for the card before you start the installation.

Step 2. Remove the bracket facing the slot that you intend to use. Keep the screw

for later use.

Step 3. Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is

completely seated on the slot.

Step 4. Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.

2.4 Jumpers Setup

The illustration shows how jumpers are

setup. When the jumper cap is placed on

pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap

is placed on the pins, the jumper is “Open”.

The illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose

pin1 and pin2 are “Short” when jumper cap

is placed on these 2 pins.

(seep.2 item 1) +5VSB (standby) for PS/2 or

USB wake up events.

Note: To select +5VSB, it requires 2 Amp and higher standby current provided by power

supply.

JR1 / JL1 Jumpers

(seep.2item23)

Note: If JR1 and JL1 Jumpers are short, both the front panel and the rear panel audio

connectors can work.

Clear CMOS Jumper

(CLRCMOS2)

(seep.2item22)

Note: CLRCMOS2 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 the Clear CMOS jumper for 5 seconds. After shorting the Clear CMOS jumper,

please remove the jumper cap. 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.

J1 Jumper

(FID0, FID1, FID2, FID3, FID4)

(seep.2item29)

Note: The set of J1 Jumper allows users to adjust the multiplier of CPU. See page 14 of User

Manual in the Support CD for details. However, the system will work well without the

adjustment of multiplier. You do not have to adjust the multiplier for normal usage.
