After installing the drivers, reboot the PC again and wait for the admin screen once more. When the PC reboots, press the space bar to stop the menu so you can make changes. JB recommends, as do I, that you select "express installation" to protect your entire C: drive. To enter the configuration screen you need to press "ctrl + home".



During install and reboot you might hear several beeps, alternating from high to low. This indicates there is a problem with the installation. Uninstall the drivers and then reinstall the card in another PCI slot. The card is compatible with "99% of all computer systems"; unfortunately I have one of the 1%. My main system would not recognize the card no matter what I tried. I uninstalled the card, drivers, other cards, other drivers. I removed every other PCI card I had installed. I did everything short of reformatting and it still didn't work. My system specs are as follows:


AMD64 3200+
Mushkin PC3500 1GB
WD 120GB x2
MSI K8T Neo FIS2R motherboard


I contacted support form JB on a Sunday and they responded right away. We tried everything we could think of, but to no avail. However, I was able to install, configure and test the unit on one of my secondary PC's utilizing a non-64 bit AMD cpu. Something about my configuration on my primary PC was askew for the card. Let me reiterate though, I contacted JB support on a SUNDAY and they responded within 30 minutes. I was also able to speak with them via the phone. I have to say I am very impressed with this level of tech support. Although we were not able to get it running on one PC, their willingness to work so hard on it on a SUNDAY meant a great deal.


Anyway, after getting it installed on my alternate PC we were ready to test. I changed the theme. I changed the sound events. I made some changes in the registry. Not huge changes, after all, I am testing it. What I did was alter the title bar for IE. I uninstalled a few minor programs, such as games and an image editing program. I then crossed my fingers and rebooted. I need not have worried. After reboot everything was back as if I had never changed it. Now I am truly impressed.


Configuration

Ctrl+w - Open mode. This allows you to make changes to your PC.
Ctrl+s - Save changes in protected mode.


Data recovery modes:

  • Auto: When you select the Auto command, you can set Auto recovery time. Auto recovery day(s)" For example, the set interval is one day, and the last time system parameters set is 8:00 in the morning, then, Jackson Armor Card will recover the data with a ringing on at 8:00 am every day. The longest recovery time is 99 days. The set interval is 0 day; protected data will be automatically recovered on every reboot.
  • Manual: Protected data will not be recovered until you follow this sequence. When the hot keys screen appears, press "Ctrl+R" Only then data will be recovered.
  • None: none command optionData changes will not be recovered until the recovery mode is changed.

Set CMOS / BIOS recovery mode:


  • None: Only protect CMOS password, CMOS will be destroyed because of its high-stability.
  • Strengthen mode: Protect all the CMOS data including some special CMOS data.
  • Standard mode: Protect most of the CMOS data.
  • Normal mode: Protect general CMOS data, you are recommended to use this mode.

We suggest that you backup your CMOS data before CMOS recovery.


Note: using software programs to access CMOS / BIOS after the Jackson Armor Card has been installed and configured will force the system to reboot. As this is a simulated attack against CMOS of the Jackson Armor Card.


Reviewers Note: This includes programs used to adjust FSB, RAM speed, etc.
