3.7.4 Audio Modem Riser (AMR) Slot

This connector supports a specially designed audio and/or modem card called an AMR.
Main processing is done through software and controlled by the motherboard’s sys-
tem chipset. This provides an upgradeable audio and/or modem solution at an incred-
ibly low cost. There are two types of AMR, one defined as primary and another de-
fined as secondary. This motherboard uses the primary channel so that a secondary
AMR can coexist without the need to disable the onboard CODEC. The motherboard’s
onboard CODEC (optional) must be disabled when using a primary AMR.

NOTE: An AMR is not included with this motherboard.

WARNING!

Make sure that you unplug your power supply when adding or re-

moving an AGP card, an AMR or any other system components. Failure to do so
may cause severe damage to both your motherboard and expansion cards (see 3.3
Hardware Setup Procedure
for more information).

CAUTION!

The AGP Pro slot is shipped with a warning label over the 20-pin

bay. DO NOT remove this label and the safety tab underneath it if you will be
using an AGP card without a retention notch. Removing may cause the card to
shift and may cause damage to your card, slot, and motherboard.
Remove ONLY when you will be using an AGP Pro card. Use a
rigid tip, such as a pen tip, to dislodge and remove the tab from
the bay.
