Hardware Setup
Chassis Intrusion Switch Connector: JCI1
This connector is connected to a 2-pin chassis switch. If the chassis is
opened, the switch will be short. The system will record this status and show
a warning message on the screen. To clear the warning, you must enter the
BIOS utility and clear the record.

Front USB Connectors: JUSB1 & JUSB2
The mainboard provides two USB 2.0 pin headers JUSB1 & JUSB2
(Optional) that are compliant with Intel® I/O Connectivity Design Guide. USB
2.0 technology increases data transfer rate up to a maximum throughput of
480Mbps, which is 40 times faster than USB 1.1, and is ideal for connecting
high-speed USB interface peripherals such as USB HDD, digital cameras,
MP3 players, printers, modems and the like.

MS-6728 ATX Mainboard
The mainboard provides the following jumpers for you to set the
computer’s function. This section will explain how to change your mainboard’s
function through the use of jumpers.
Clear CMOS Jumper: JBAT1
There is a CMOS RAM on board that has a power supply from external
battery to keep the data of system configuration. With the CMOS RAM, the
system can automatically boot OS every time it is turned on. If you want to
clear the system configuration, use the JBAT1 (Clear CMOS Jumper ) to clear
data.  Follow the instructions below to clear the data:
Jumpers
MSI Reminds You...
You can clear CMOS by shorting 2-3 pin while the system is off.
Then return to 1-2 pin position. Avoid clearing the CMOS while
the system is on; it will damage the mainboard.

Hardware Setup
PCI Interrupt Request Routing
The IRQ, acronym of interrupt request line and pronounced I-R-Q, are
hardware lines over which devices can send interrupt signals to the
microprocessor. The PCI IRQ pins are typically connected to the PCI bus INT
A# ~ INT D# pins as follows:
Slots
AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) Slot
The AGP slot allows you to insert the AGP graphics card.  AGP is an
interface specification designed for the throughput demands of 3D graphics.
It introduces a 66MHz, 32-bit channel for the graphics controller to directly
access main memory. The slot supports 8x/4x AGP card.
PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) Slots
The PCI slots allow you to insert the expansion cards to meet your needs.
When adding or removing expansion cards, make sure that you unplug the
power supply first. Meanwhile, read the documentation for the expansion card
to make any necessary hardware or software settings for the expansion card,
such as jumpers, switches or BIOS configuration.The mainboard provides one AGP slot and five 32-bit PCI bus slots.

DEL: SetupF11: Boot MenuF12: Network bootTAB: Logo
If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter
Setup, restart the system by turning it OFF and On or pressing the RESET
button.  You may also restart the system by simultaneously pressing ,
, and  keys.
Selecting the First Boot Device
You are allowed to select the 1st boot device without entering the BIOS
setup utility by pressing .  When the same message as listed above
appears on the screen, press  to trigger the boot menu.
The POST messages might pass by too quickly for you to respond in
time.  If so, restart the system and press  after around 2 or 3 seconds to
activate the boot menu similar to the following.
The boot menu will list all the bootable devices. Select the one you want
to boot from by using arrow keys, then press . The system will boot
from the selected device.  The selection will not make changes to the settings
in the BIOS setup utility, so next time when you power on the system, it will still
use the original first boot device to boot up.Select First Boot Device
