Installation
Installation of the CT-60JV is quite simple. Its jumperless design allows users to skip even the process of configuring jumpers JP14 & JP15, as the default setting allows the system to automatically determine a proper FSB setting in the majority of cases. In short, simply install the board in a casing, plug everything in, and make a quick pass through the BIOS to finalize any adjustments.
The software pack
The installation CD include version 4.20 of the Via 4-in-1 drivers, a software for flashing the BIOS, Adobe Acrobat Reader, a digital rendition of the user's manual, Shepperd 2000, PC-cillin 6, Norton Antivirus, Adobe ActiveShare, Appio, and X-Stop.
The hardware pack
In terms of hardware, the CT-60JV is escorted by an 80-pin ATA66/100 cable, and a disk drive cable.
