1. Note Please do not change the default setting on JP2 unless your CPU needs the voltage higher than 2 05V 3 19 Intel i810 ATX Mainboard HARDWARE SETUP C JP3 CPU Voltage Adjustment optional Sometimes you may feel that the CPU voltage detected by the mainboard can not meet your requirement and you want to make the CPU voltage a little bit higher than regular setting In this case you may use the JP3 setting to adjust the CPU voltage When SHORT is selected the CPU voltage will be 0 05V 50mV higher than normal voltage OPEN Vcore Default Setting SHORT will be 0 05V higher hi H USB
2. Intel i810 ATX Mainboard HARDWARE SETUP B JP2 CPU Voltage Range Selection JP2 is a special design on the mainboard which allows you to select the CPU voltage range Vcore for the Pentium II processors The voltage regulator on the mainboard will generate 1 3V 3 5V DC to support different processors Basically mainboard will use the VID signal VIDO VID4 from the processor to decide the proper CPU voltage Vcore In case that there is the poor connection between Slot 1 connector and CPU or install uninstall the CPU from the mainboard while the system power is ON Under such circumstance mainboard may receive wrong VID signal and send wrong Vcore to the CPU Unfortunately wrong Vcore may destroy the CPU JP2 is designed to control the Vcore within the safe range so that it won t make any damage to the CPU because of wrong VID signal Since most Pentium II processors require the Vcore below 2 05V except very few Pentium II processors So the default setting of JP2 will limit the Vcore at 1 3V 2 05V and it will provide good protection to the mainboard OPEN Vcore 1 3V 2 05V SHORT Vcore 1 3V 3 5V
