Its a simple board to set up.
only 2 jumpers, one to clear CMOS and one to enable Keyboard Power on, so nothing to taxing there!
Everything will Autodetect.
The only setting you may have to adjust are the FSB setting (100/133) and the memory speed (100/133).
As I recall, both are set to a failsafe of 100/100 so the machine will still boot even without messing in the BIOS.

As CHR15 said DELTA it's a real easy board to set-up but if you do run into any problems or just need more info you can't beat http://forum.ocworkbench.com/ocwbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum&f=27&SUBMIT=Go for all the info you need.

One little tip........always double check all cables & leads are pushed in properly this can save some headaches.
Also its good to use an anti-static wristband.

Here's a good tip: Read the manual.
At least twice.
That's all the tips and hints you need.

Won't get you very far with an ECS mobo IMHO. Compared to a Gigabyte or Asus manual the ECS is sheer cr@p. Their major letdown if you ask me, but it does provide the basics even if the translation is dire. Maybe you will need to read it 20 times in that case! :D
But as said above it's a very easy board to set-up anyway and should not prove a problem.
