motherboard and includes the code listed below. The motherboard will automatically perform a
BIOS recovery operation if it detects a valid recovery disk during the boot sequence. The BIOS

0FFFFFFFFh) and copied at the top of ISA memory (0E0000 - 0FFFFFh).

The audio system is based around an AC’97 compliant controller. When not fitted, the standard
PC beep function remains.
