Onboard VGA & Audio Features
The onboard VGA display and audio features come with exten­
sive software drivers and utilities. The other manual in the mainboard
package explains how to install and use the software for these fea­
tures. There is information on the hardware setup for these features
in Chapter 4 of this manual.
VGA Hardware & Software
The onboard VGA display is capable of displaying multiple reso­
lutions and color depths (numbers of colors) at a variety of refresh
rates. Some combinations of resolution, color depth and refresh rate
require an optional 1MB video DRAM upgrade. There is also a stan­
dard VGA pass-through connector on the mainboard.
The display drivers and utilities provided support Microsoft
Windows and Windows NT, as well as OS/2 and several popular
DOS applications.
Audio Hardware & Software
The onboard Vibra 16S audio from Creative Technologies Inc. is
a 16-bit soxmd card integrated onto the mainboard. The external ports
for the card are mounted on a module that installs in an empty ex­
pansion slot opening in the system case. Sound connectors for sev­
eral CD-ROM drives, a connector for the port module and a connec­
tor for a Wave Table option are on the mainboard.
There are several Windows and DOS utilities for the audio fea­
ture. The Video/Audio manual that comes with this mainboard ex­
plains how to install and use them.
