notes Notes

Unlike its P2B ATX sibling, this board ships with the JEN jumber hardwired for manual CPU multiplier and bus frequency.
By desoldering the wire and replacing it with a normal jumper, it's possible to re-enable the missing "CPU PnP" feature, with multiplier and clock auto-detection and manual adjustment from BIOS. Latest BIOS is recommended for this feature to work correctly.
On PCB Revision 1.01, Pentium III Coppermine support can be added by replacing the VRM PWM controller with a compatible one. See [https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=85273] for details.
According to the support page here PCB 1.02 supports Coppermine CPUs up to 1GHz using the beta bios 1013.006 or higher.
