AN430TX SPECIFICATION UPDATE

17

Once defined, a user password can be cleared by either defining a new user password in BIOS Setup, or by
moving the Password Clear jumper (J9C1-A) on the motherboard. See Section 1.13.2, Password Clear for
more information on how to use this jumper.

Power Supply Considerations

The AN430TX motherboard has been designed to be configured in a system that uses a power supply that
complies with the recommendations of ATX Specification Version 2.01. See Documentation Change 10 for
the specific recommendations that must be met by a power supply for the motherboard.

6.

LS-120 Drive Configured as a Boot Device

The second paragraph in Section 1.7.4.1, LS-120 Support will be replaced in its entirety as follows:

The motherboard allows connection of an LS-120 compatible drive and a standard 3.5-inch diskette drive.
The LS-120 drive can be configured as a boot device, if selected as a floppy device in the BIOS setup utility.

7.

Resource Allocation With All PCI Slots Used

The BIOS assigns resources to PCI boot devices (video cards and SCSI controllers, for example) during
POST when Plug and Play is enabled in BIOS Setup. PCI and ISA non-boot devices (network cards and
audio, for example) will not have resources assigned by the BIOS during POST. A Plug and Play operating
system assigns resources to PCI and ISA non-boot devices when it loads.

8.

Using Shift Print Screen in BIOS Setup

In order to use the Shift Print Screen function to print screens from BIOS Setup, PnP OS must be set to no.
If PnP OS is set to yes in BIOS Setup, the Shift Print Screen function will not work. The BIOS does not
assign resources to the parallel port when PnP OS is set to yes in BIOS Setup. Resources for the parallel
port will be allocated by the plug and play operating system when it loads. If PnP OS is set to no, the BIOS
allocates resources to the parallel port.
