Using BIOS

About the Setup Utility

The computer uses the latest “American Megatrends Inc.” BIOS will support for Windows Plug and Play. The CMOS chip on the motherboard contains the ROM setup instructions for configuring the motherboard BIOS.

The BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) Setup Utility displays the system’s configuration status and provides you with options to set system parameters. The parameters are stored in battery-backed-up CMOS RAM that saves this information when the power is turned off. When the system is turned back on, the system is configured with the values you stored in CMOS.

The BIOS Setup Utility enables you to configure:

l Hard drives, diskette drives and peripherals l Video display type and display options l Password protection from unauthorized use l Power Management features

The settings made in the Setup Utility affect how the computer performs. Before using the Setup Utility, ensure that you understand the Setup Utility options.

This chapter provides explanations for Setup Utility options.

The Standard Configuration

A standard configuration has already been set in the Setup Utility. However, we recommend that you read this chapter in case you need to make any changes in the future.

This Setup Utility should be used:

l when changing the system configuration

l when a configuration error is detected and you are prompted to make changes to the Setup

Utility

l when trying to resolve IRQ conflicts l When making changes to the Power Management configuration

l when changing the password or making other changes to the Security Setup

Entering the Setup Utility

When you power on the system, BIOS enters the Power-On Self Test (POST) routines. POST is a series of built-in diagnostics performed by the BIOS. After the POST routines are completed, the following message appears:

Press DEL to enter SETUP

Updating the BIOS

You can download and install updated BIOS for this motherboard from the manufacturer’s Web site. New

BIOS provides support for new peripherals, improvements in performance, or fixes for known bugs. Install

new BIOS as follows:

1 If your motherboard has a BIOS protection jumper, change the setting to allow BIOS flashing. 2 If your motherboard has an item called Firmware Write Protect in Advanced BIOS features,

disable it. (Firmware Write Protect prevents BIOS from being overwritten.

3 Create a bootable system disk. (Refer to Windows online help for information on creating a

bootable system disk.)

4 Download the Flash Utility and new BIOS file from the manufacturer’s Website. Copy these files

to the system diskette you created in Step 3.

5 Turn off your computer and insert the system diskette in your computer’s diskette drive. (You

might need to run the Setup Utility and change the boot priority items on the Advanced BIOS

Features Setup page, to force your computer to boot from the floppy diskette drive first.) 6 At the A:\ prompt, type the Flash Utility program name and press <Enter>. 7 Type the filename of the new BIOS in the “File Name to Program” text box. Follow the onscreen

directions to update the motherboard BIOS. 8 When the installation is complete, remove the floppy diskette from the diskette drive and restart

your computer. If your motherboard has a Flash BIOS jumper, reset the jumper to protect the

newly installed BIOS from being overwritten.

Using BIOS

When you start the Setup Utility, the main menu appears. The main menu of the Setup Utility displays a list of the options that are available. A highlight indicates which option is currently selected. Use the cursor arrow keys to move the highlight to other options. When an option is highlighted, execute the option by pressing <Enter>.

Some options lead to pop-up dialog boxes that prompt you to verify that you wish to execute that option. Other options lead to dialog boxes that prompt you for information.

Some options (marked with a triangle u ) lead to submenus that enable you to change the values for the option. Use the cursor arrow keys to scroll through the items in the submenu.

Power-On Self-Test (POST)

Disable NMI, Parity,video for EGA, and DMA controllers. Initialize BIOS, POST,

Runtime data area. Also initialize BIOS modules on POST entry and GPNV area.

INT1Ch vector to "POSTINT1ChHandlerBlock."

Each time you turn on the system, the Power-on Self Test (POST) is initiated. Several items are tested during POST, but is for the most part transparent to the user.

The Power-On Self Test (POST) is a BIOS procedure that boots the system, initializes and diagnoses the system components, and controls the operation of the power-on password option. If POST discovers errors in system operations at power-on, it displays error messages on screen, generates a check point code at port 80h or even halts the system if the error is fatal.

The main components on the main board that must be diagnosed and/or initialized by POST to ensure

system functionality are as follows:

l Microprocessor with built-in numeric co-processor and cache memory subsystem l Direct Memory Access (DMA) controller l Interrupt system l Three programmable timers l ROM subsystem l RAM subsystem l CMOS RAM subsystem and real time clock/calendar with battery backup l Onboard parallel interface controller l Embedded hard disk interface and one diskette drive interface l Keyboard and auxiliary device controllers l I/O ports

l One parallel port l One PS/2-compatible mouse port l One PS/2-compatible keyboard port

NOTE: When Post executes a task, it uses a series of preset numbers called check points to be latched at port 80h, indicating the stages it is currently running. This latch can be read and shown on a debug board. The following table describes the BIOS common tasks carried out by POST. Each task is denoted by an unique check point number. For other unique check point numbers that are not listed in the table, refer to the corresponding product service guide.

Post Checkpoints List: The list may vary accordingly depending on your BIOS

Checkpoint Description

Initialized CMOS as mentioned in the Kernel Variable "wCMOSFlags."

04 Check CMOS diagnostic byte to determine if battery power is OK and CMOS

checksum is OK. Verify CMOS checksum manually by reading storage area. If the CMOS checksum is bad, update CMOS with power-on default values and clear passwords. Initialize status register A.

05 Initializes the interrupt controlling hardware (generally PIC) and interrupt vector

table.

06 Do R/W test to CH-2 count reg. Initialize CH-0 as system timer. Install the

POSTINT1Ch handler. Enable IRQ-0 in PIC for system timer interrupt. Traps

POST Error Messages List

If you cannot run the diagnostics program tests but did receive a POST error message, use “POST Error Messages List” to diagnose system problems. If you did not receive any error message, look for a description of your error symptoms in “Error Symptoms List” on page 66.

NOTE: When you have deemed it necessary to replace an FRU, and have done so, you must run a total

system check to ensure that no other activity has been affected by the change. This system check can be done through the diagnostics program.

NOTE: Check all power supply voltages, switch, and jumper settings before you replace the main board.

Also check the power supply voltages if you have a “system no-power” condition.

If you are unable to correct the problem by using the “BIOS Messages List” table and “Error Symptoms List” table, go to “Undetermined Problems”.

To diagnose a problem, first find the BIOS error messages in the left column. If directed to a check procedure, replace the FRU indicated in the check procedure. If no check procedure is indicated, the first Action/FRU listed in right column is the most likely cause.

Choosing a Computer Case

There are many types of computer cases on the market. The motherboard complies with the specifications for the

Micro ATX system case. Firstly, some features on the motherboard are implemented by cabling connectors on the motherboard to indicators and switches on the system case. Make sure that your case supports all the features required. Secondly, this motherboard supports one or two floppy diskette drives and two enhanced IDE drives. Make sure that your case has sufficient power and space for all drives that you intend to install.

Most cases have a choice of I/O templates in the rear panel. Make sure that the I/O template in the case matches the I/O ports installed on the rear edge of the motherboard.

This motherboard carries an Micro ATX form factor of 244 X 244 mm. Choose a case that accommodates this form factor.

Installing the Motherboard in a Case

Refer to the following illustration and instructions for installing the motherboard in a case. Most system cases have mounting brackets installed in the case, which correspond the holes in the motherboard.

Front Panel Header

The front panel header (PANEL1) provides a standard set of switch and LED headers commonly found on ATX or Micro ATX cases. Refer to the table below for information:

Pin Signal Name Function Pin

1 HD_LED_P Hard disk LED(+) 2 FP PWR/SLP *MSG LED(+) 3 HD_LED_N Hard disk LED(-) 4 FP PWR/SLP *MSG LED(-) 5 RST_SW_N Reset Switch(-) 6 PWR_SW_P Power Switch(+) 7 RST_SW_P Reset Switch(+) 8 PWR_SW_N Power Switch(-) 9 RSVD Reserved 10 Key No pin

Hard Drive Activity LED

Connecting pins 1 and 3 to a front panel mounted LED provides visual indication that data is being read from or written to the hard drive. For the LED to function properly, an IDE drive should be connected to the onboard IDE interface. The LED will also show activity for devices connected to the SCSI (hard drive activity LED) connector.

Power/Sleep/Message waiting LED

Connecting pins 2 and 4 to a single or dual-color, front panel mounted LED provides power on/off, sleep, and message waiting indication.

Reset Switch

Supporting the reset function requires connecting pin 5 and 7 to a momentary-contact switch that is normally open. When the switch is closed, the board resets and runs POST.

Power Switch

Supporting the power on/off function requires connecting pins 6 and 8 to a momentary-contact switch that is normally open. The switch should maintain contact for at least 50 ms to signal the power supply to switch on or off. The time requirement is due to internal de-bounce circuitry. After receiving a power on/off signal, at least two seconds elapses before the power supply recognizes another on/off signal.

Installing Hardware

Installing the Processor

Caution: When installing a CPU heatsink and cooling fan make sure that you DO NOT

scratch the motherboard or any of the surface-mount resistors with the clip of the cooling fan.If the clip of the cooling fan scrapes across the motherboard, you may cause serious damage to the motherboard or its components.

On most motherboards, there are small surface-mount resistors near the processor socket, which may be damaged if the cooling fan is carelessly installed.

Avoid using cooling fans with sharp edges on the fan casing and the clips. Also,

install the cooling fan in a well-lit work area so that you can clearly see the motherboard and processor socket.

Before installing the Processor

This motherboard automatically determines the CPU clock frequency and system bus frequency for the processor. You may be able to change these settings by making changes to jumpers on the motherboard, or changing the settings in the system Setup Utility. We strongly recommend that you do not over-clock processors or other components to run faster than their rated speed.

Warning: Over-clocking components can adversely affect the reliability of the system and introduce errors into your system. Over-clocking can permanently damage the

motherboard by generating excess heat in components that are run beyond the rated limits.

This motherboard has an LGA1156 socket. When choosing a processor, consider the performance requirements of the system. Performance is based on the processor design, the clock speed and system bus frequency of the processor, and the quantity

of internal cache memory and external cache memory.
