         The P6BX-A and P6BX-An Intel 440BX ATX mainboards are with 
        "Instantly Available" PC technology. This technology is a 
        technique allowing the PC to operate like an appliance by implementing 
        the ¨Suspend to RAM 〃 feature, 
        which allows the PC to enter a power-saving ¨sleep state〃 
        during idle 
        periods and resume operation in a matter of seconds. The P6BX-A and 
        P6BX-An are the first mainboard with the IA ("Instantly 
        Available") platform.
        The P6BX-A and P6Bx-An have added one GAL to support 5 PCI slots; 
        even a PCI device is already equipped onboard. This is the most unique 
        feature of the mainboard that differentiates it from those of other 
        suppliers. Together with one AGP slot, and two ISA slots, the P6BX-A(n) 
        maximizes I/O expandability. It is compatible with ATA/66 HDD. Three 
        168-pin DIMM sockets support up to 768MB of SDRAM with ECC capability. 
        Keyboard Power On, Modem Ring-in, and Wake Up On LAN increase the 
        versatility of the Power On feature. The Hardware Monitoring design 
        allows users to self-diagnose CPU temperature, CPU fan speed and 
        voltage. 
        The P6BX-A is designed with the ESS Solo1 PCI Sound Chip on board to 
        support software wavetable. One MIDI/game port, and an Audio connector 
        line (line out, line in, and mic. In) are available for multimedia 
        applications. This feature can be fully disabled if users prefer to use 
        their own sound card. The color codes for connectors on the back panel 
        assure users easy installation, and meet Microsoft PC99 requirements. If 
        users prefer one without sound support, P6BX-An is the choice. 
        The P6BX-A comes with Trend PC-Cillin 98 Anti-virus Software to 
        strengthen the anti-virus ability for the entire PC system. By using 
        X-store Bus Master IDE driver, Hard Disk performance is increased by up 
        to 60% and system performance is increased by up to 10%.
