DO NOT short-circuit the pins except when clearing the RTC RAM. Short-circuiting or
placing a jumper cap will cause system boot failure!
If the steps above do not help, remove the onboard button cell battery and short the two
pins again to clear the CMOS RTC RAM data. After clearing the CMOS, reinstall the button
cell battery.
13. COM Port header
The COM (Serial) Port header allows you to connect a COM port module.
Connect the COM port module cable to this header, then install the module to
a slot opening on the system chassis.
The COM port module is purchased separately.
14. Front Panel Audio header
The Front Panel Audio header is for a chassis-mounted front panel audio I/O
module that supports HD Audio. Connect one end of the front panel audio I/O
module cable to this header.
We recommend that you connect a high-denition front panel audio
module to this header to avail of the motherboard’s high-denition audio
capability.

speaker allows you to hear system beeps and warnings.
17. SPI TPM header
This header supports a Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
system with a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), allowing you to
securely store keys, digital certicates, passwords, and data.
A TPM system also helps enhance network security, protects
digital identities, and ensures platform integrity.
The TPM module is purchased separately.
