Note on Over-clocking Capability
The SY-6VZA Motherboard provides over-clocking capability. Due to the over-clocking
setting your system may fail to boot up or hang during run time. If this occurs, please perform
the following steps to recover your system from the abnormal situation:
1. Turn off system power. (If you use an ATX power supply, and depending on your
system, you may have to press the power button for more than 4 seconds to shut
down the system.)
2. Set JP45 to pin 2-3 if you use a FSB 66MHz CPU
3. Press and hold down the <Insert> key while turning on the system power. Keep
holding down the <Insert> key until you see the message of the CPU type and your
CPU frequency (66MHz x CPU Multiplier) appear on screen.
4. Press the <Del> key during the system diagnostic checks to enter the Award BIOS
Setup program.
5. From the BIOS main menu, select [SOYO COMBO SETUP] and move the cursor to
the [CPU Frequency] field to set the proper working frequency.
6. Select [Save & Exit SETUP] and press <Enter> to save the configuration to the
CMOS memory, and continue the boot sequence.
Note: SOYO does not guarantee system stability if the user over clocks the system.
Any malfunctions due to over-clocking are not covered by the warranty.
