Onboard LEDs

1.

Standby Power LED
The motherboard comes with a standby power LED. The green LED lights up to

indicate that the system is ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode. This is a reminder

that you should shut down the system and unplug the power cable before removing or

plugging in any motherboard component. The illustration below shows the location of

the onboard LED.

2.

POST State LEDs
POST State LEDs check key components (CPU, DRAM, VGA card, and HDD) in

sequence during motherboard booting process. If an error is found , the LED next to

the error device will continue lighting until the problem is solved. This user-friendly

design provides an intuitional way to locate the root problem within a second.
