Installing Add-on Cards
The slots on this motherboard are designed to hold expansion cards and connect them to the
system bus. Expansion slots are a means of adding or enhancing the motherboard’s features
and capabilities. With these efficient facilities, you can increase the motherboard’s capabili-
ties by adding hardware that performs tasks that are not part of the basic system.
PCI Slot
This motherboard is equipped with three standard PCI slots. PCI stands
for Peripheral Component Interconnect and is a bus standard for expan-
sion cards, which for the most part, is a supplement of the older ISA bus
standard. The PCI slots on this board are PCI v2.3 compliant.
AGP Express
Slot
The AGP Express slot is used to install a graphics adapter that emulates
the AGP function. In order to get better performance and compability on
our special design AGP Express slot, we recommend users use one of the
AGP graphics cards that have been tested by our company. Please refer to
page 21 for the “supported list”.
Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for the card
carefully. If the card is not Plug and Play, you may have to manually
configure the card before installation.
CNR1 Slot
(optional)
This slot is used to insert CNR cards with Modem and Audio functionality.
