Introduction of V600DA / V600DAP Motherboard
Thank you for purchasing the V600 series which provide extremely
performance and meet future specification demand.
V600 series motherboards are adopted with advanced technologies to deliver the
extremely performance for socket A processors. V600 series motherboards also
feature AGP 8X, Serial ATA RAID0, 1, USB 2.0 as well as 6-channel audio
which are based on the advanced VIA KT600 chipset with FSB 400MHz and DDR
400 MHz support. Now we could know more details by reading the features of
motherboards below.
1-1 Feature of motherboard

V600 series motherboards are designed for AMD Socket-A
200MHz/266MHz/333MHz/400MHz (Double Data Rate) Front Side Bus Frequency
CPUs and the memory size expandable to 3.0GB.
By using VIA KT600 chipset which provides 400/333/266MHz (Double Data Rate)
Front Side Bus frequency and DDR266/333/400 SDRAM support as a obvious
further step to the next generation of 200/266/333/400MHz processors. V600 series
motherboards also offer ULTRA ATA 133 and Serial ATA RAID0, 1 functions to
provide speedier HDD throughout that boosts overall system performance.
Integrated AC’97 CODEC audio on system supports 6 channel speaker for 3D

Surround Effect which is fully compatible with Sound Blaster Pro that gives you the
best sound quality and compatibility. AGP 8X slot enables more complex models
and detailed textures with AGP 8X graphic accelerators which creates richer and
more lifelike virtual environments. VIA VT6103 LAN PHY supports 10/100Mbps data
transfer rate full duplex, half duplex operation. USB control as well as capability of
expanding to 8 USB function ports support USB2.0/1.1 Devices.
Built-in hardware monitor function will monitor and protect your computer
which is the special design in hardware for protecting Athlon XP CPU from burned,
and will shutdown power supply automatically when CPU is overheated or the CPU
cooling fan is not working.
Minor adjustable DDR memory 2.5V Voltage, AGP 1.5V Voltage, and other special
1
functions allows user to increase CPU Host clock step by step by setting up BIOS to
approach over clocking and increasing stability of the system.

2-5 To install the Expansion Cards

WARNING! Turn off your power when adding or removing expansion cards or other
system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both
your motherboard and expansion cards.
2-5-1 Procedure For Expansion Card Installation

1. To read documentation
s or manualsfor your expansion card
s and make any necessary
hardware or software settings for your expansion card such as jumpers.
2. To remove your computer’s cover and the bracket plate on the slot you intend to use.
3. To align the card’s connectors and press firmly.
4. To secure the card on the slot with the screen you remove above.
5. To replace the computer system’s cover.
6. To set up the BIOS if it’s necessary.
7. To install the necessary software drivers for your expansion cards.

To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the password. A
message will confirm that the password will be disabled. Once the password is disabled, the
system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED.
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try to
enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of your system
configuration.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS to request a
password every time your system is rebooted. This would prevent unauthorized use of your
computer.
You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features Setup Menu and its
Security option. If the Security option is set to “System”, the password will be required both
at boot and at entry to Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when trying to enter
Setup.
