connector on the motherboard. See section “4.4 Connectors” for the

location of the CD connector.

The motherboard is equipped with a BIOS-based audio playback feature

called Instant Music. The onboard audio ACʼ97 CODEC supports this

feature, which requires an optical drive (CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, or CD-RW).

the Power-On Self-Test (POST).

3. In the Instant Music Configuration menu, select the item Instant Music

and set it to Enabled. See section “5.4.1 Instant Music Configuration.”

4. The Instant Music CD-ROM Drive item appears if you enabled Instant

Music. Highlight the item then press <Enter> to display the CD-ROM

options.

5. Save your changes and exit BIOS Setup.

Make sure to connect the optical drive audio cable. Otherwise, you

cannot control the audio volume using the Instant Music function keys.

• The Caps Lock LED turns ON when you pause the CD playback.
• When set to Instant Music mode, the system wake-up features

(LAN, keyboard, mouse, USB) are deactivated. In this case, power up

the system using the power switch.

• If the system lost connection or did not detect any optical drive, the

Instant Music feature turns OFF (disabled) automatically. A “beep”

indicates this condition.

• Instant Music only supports CDs in audio format.
• Instant Music does not work if you installed and enabled an add-on

sound card.
