G586SP/G586SP AIO
vIntroduction
The G586SP/G586SP AIO system board offers several
advanced features integrated into the system board. Its
design is based on the new Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) local bus and Industry Standard Architecture
(ISA) standards.
The G586SP/G586SP AIO system board provides a 321-pin
Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) CPU socket for Pentium
TM
processors running at 75MHz, 90MHz, 100MHz, 120MHz,
133MHz or 150MHz frequencies. This ZIF socket allows
users to easily upgrade CPUs.
The difference between the G586SP and G586SP AIO is that
the G586SP AIO comes with a built-in video accelerator for
ultimate graphic displays. The VGA controller can display
graphic resolutions up to 1024 x 768, 256 colors, 75Hz at
1MB DRAM, and up to 1280x1024, 256 colors, 60Hz at
2MB DRAM. The built-in VGA function also supports video
playback, VESA DDC1 and DDC2B.
Both the G586SP and G586SP AIO are equipped with three
dedicated PCI slots, two dedicated ISA slots, and one shared
PCI/ISA slot. The board has two bus master PCI IDE connectors. Bus mastering reduces CPU utilization during disk
transfer resulting more efficient use of CPU resources. The
system board is also equipped with two NS16C550A-compatible serial ports, one SPP/ECP/EPP parallel port, one analog
VGA port (G586SP AIO model only), a floppy disk drive
controller, and one PS/2 keyboard or AT keyboard connector.
The board can support 2MB to 256MB of EDO or fast page
mode DRAM (x32 or x36, 60 or 70ns) using 72-pin SIMMs
(Single In-line Memory Module).

vInstallation Overview
This chapter summarizes the steps in installing the board
into your system unit. It also includes a description of the
area in which you must work and directions for memory
installation. Before installing the system board, obtain the
memory you plan to install. Please refer to the memory chart
on page 9 for the type of SIM modules needed.
Note:
Do not use 5V SRAM cache as they will not function properly on the system board.
Preparing the Area
Before unpacking the system board, make sure the location
you have selected is free of dust and static electricity.
Excessive exposure to dust, static electricity, direct sunlight,
excessive humidity, extreme cold, and water can damage the
operational capabilities of your system board. Avoid placing
the unit on surfaces such as carpeted floors. These areas also
attract static electricity which can damage some circuits on
your system board.
10
Make sure the power source has a properly grounded, threepronged socket. It is essential that the power connection be
properly grounded for correct functioning of your system
board. For further protection, we recommend that you use a
surge suppressor. This will protect the system board from
damage that may result from a power surge on the electrical
line.
Move items that generate magnetic fields away from your
system board since magnetic fields can also damage your
system board. Once you have selected the ideal location,
unpack the system board carefully.
Page 11
Handling the System Board
Static electrical discharge can damage computer components
without causing any signs of physical damage. You must
take extra care in handling the system board to ensure
against electrostatic buildup.
Tips in Handling the System Board
1. To prevent electrostatic buildup, leave the board in its
antistatic bag until you are ready to install it.
2. Wear an antistatic wrist strap.
3. Do all preparation work on a static-free surface with
components facing up.
4. Hold the system board by its edges only. Be careful not
to touch any of the components, contacts or connections,
especially gold contacts, on the board.
5. Avoid touching the pins or contacts on all modules and
connectors. Hold modules and connectors by their ends.
G586SP/G586SP AIO
Warning:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor,
disk drives, add-in boards, and other components. Perform
the upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD
workstation only. If such a station is not available, you can
provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist
strap and attaching it to a metal part of the system chassis. If
a wrist strap is unavailable, establish and maintain contact
with the system chassis throughout any procedures requiring
ESD protection.

Cache Configuration
The system board supports 3.3V pipeline burst or asynchronous cache SRAM installed in the 160-pin cache module
slot. The board can be configured to the following cache
sizes: 256KB, 512KB, or 1MB.
Installing the Cache Module
1. Locate the 160-pin cache module slot on the system
board. Position the cache module above the slot. Make
sure pin 1 of the cache module is aligned with pin 1 of
the slot. Carefully slide the module into the slot. Press
firmly on top of it to seat it properly.
Note:
Do not use 5V SRAM as they will not function properly. You
must first remove the onboard SRAM and/or TAG SRAM and
select the appropriate module type on JP14 before installing
the cache module.
G586SP/G586SP AIO
21
Page 22
G586SP/G586SP AIO
2. Once the cache module has been installed, make sure the
“External Cache” option in the BIOS Features Setup
menu of the Award PnP BIOS CMOS Setup Utility is set
to “Enabled”.
Note:
With the cache module installed in the cache module slot, the
length of the add-on card in PCI Slot 4 is limited to 205 mm
only if its components protrude more than 5 mm from the
components and/or solder side of the card.
22
Page 23
CPU Installation
The system board is equipped with a 321-pin Zero Insertion
Force (ZIF) socket (see page 8 for socket location). This
socket is designed for easy removal of an old CPU and easy
insertion of an upgrade CPU. If you need to apply excessive
force to insert the CPU, you are not installing the CPU
correctly.
Warning:
Open the socket only if you are actually installing a CPU.
The warranty on the original CPU will be voided if the S/N
seal is broken.
Do not change any factory CPU speed jumper settings. You
do not need to change any jumpers to properly install the
3.3V Pentium Upgrade Processor.
Before proceeding with the upgrade, take note of the
following. The microprocessor and heat sink may be hot if
the system has been running. To avoid the possibility of a
burn, power the system off and let the processor and heat
sink cool for 10 minutes.
G586SP/G586SP AIO
The 321-pin ZIF socket consists of five rows of pin holes on
each side. To prevent improper OverDrive Processor
installation, the ZIF socket has a Plug/Keying mechanism.
Several holes in the socket are plugged so that OverDrive
Processors will go in only one way. If you cannot easily
insert the OverDrive Processor, verify that pin 1 of the CPU
is aligned with pin 1 of the socket. Be extremely careful to
match pin 1 of the CPU with pin 1 of the socket. Only Intel's
OverDrive Processor is keyed to prevent improper placement
in the ZIF socket. Other Intel CPUs, as well as CPUs from
other vendors, can be placed incorrectly and will be
permanently damaged if incorrectly placed. Usually, pin 1 of
the CPU is marked by a dot or a cut corner.
23
Page 24
G586SP/G586SP AIO
Installation Procedure
To install a CPU, do the following.
1. Make sure the handle on the side of the ZIF socket is up.
To raise the handle, push it down, slightly pull it out to
the side, then raise it as far as it will go. The top plate
will slide back. Do not use screwdrivers or other tools to
open the socket, or you may damage the system or
socket. It may be necessary to initially apply a small
amount of sideways force to free the handle from its
retaining “tab.” Once clear of the “tab,” the handle will
open relatively easily.
2. Once the lever is completely up, remove the old CPU by
carefully lifting it straight out of the socket. You are now
ready to insert the new CPU.
24
Page 25
G586SP/G586SP AIO
3. Position the CPU above the ZIF socket. Make sure pin 1
of the CPU is aligned with pin 1 of the socket. Lower the
chip until the pins are inserted properly in their
corresponding holes. Remember that very little force is
needed to install the CPU. If the CPU will not insert
easily, verify pin 1 of the CPU is aligned with pin 1 of
the socket. Applying too much pressure can damage the
CPU or the socket.
4. Push the handle down until the handle locks into place.
The top plate will slide forward. You will feel some
resistance as the pressure starts to secure the CPU in the
socket. This is normal and will not damage the CPU.
However, if the handle is not completely closed, damage
to the CPU and/or system board may result.
25

G586SP/G586SP AIO
Clearance Requirements
The 3.3V Pentium OverDrive Processor comes with a heat
sink mounted on top. To maintain proper airflow once the
upgrade is installed on the system board, the processor and
heatsink require certain space clearances.
The clearance above 3.3V Pentium OverDrive Processor's
fan/heatsink must be at least 0.4 inches. The clearance on at
least 3 of 4 sides of the processor must be at least 0.2 inches.
The cables (for floppy drive, hard drive, CD-ROM, etc.)
must be routed clear of the CPU and its airspace.
Fan Exhaust
The CPU must be kept cool by using a fan exhaust
configuration in connection with the heatsink. The
temperature of the air entering the fan/heatsink cannot exceed
45°C (113°F). The ambient or room temperature must be
below 37°C (99°F) for a system installed with the 3.3V
Pentium Upgrade Processor.
In order to provide proper airflow to the CPU, all movable
obstructions (power supply cables, cards, floppy disk cables)
must be clear of the CPU fan/heatsink component in
accordance with the space clearance discussed in the CPU
installation section of this manual.

G586SP/G586SP AIO
Connecting the IDE Hard Disk Interface
To prevent improper IDE cable installation, each PCI IDE
shrouded header has a keying mechanism. The 40-pin
connector on the IDE cable can be placed into the header
only if pin 1 of the connector is aligned with pin 1 of the
header.
PCI IDE Shrouded Header
Step 1
If you are connecting two hard drives, install the 40-pin
connector of the IDE cable into the primary IDE shrouded
header (Connector J12). If you are adding a third or fourth
IDE device, install the 40-pin connector of the other IDE
cable into the secondary IDE shrouded header (Connector
J13).
30
Step 2
Install the other 40-pin header connector(s) into the device
with the colored edge of the ribbon cable aligned with pin 1
of the drive edge connector(s).
Note:
Refer to your disk drive user's manual for information about
selecting proper drive switch settings.
Page 31
Adding a Second IDE Hard Drive
When using two IDE drives, one must be set as the master
and the other as the slave. Follow the instructions provided
by the drive manufacturer for setting the jumpers, drive type,
and/or switches on the drives. No changes are needed on the
system board when adding a second hard drive.
It is recommended that the IDE hard drives be from the same
manufacturer. In a few cases, drives from two different
manufacturers will not function properly when used together.
The problem lies in the hard drives, not the system board.
Preparing an IDE Drive for Use
IDE disk drives are already low-level formatted, with any
bad-track errors entered, when shipped by the drive manufacturer. Do not attempt to do a low-level format or you may
cause serious damage to the drive. To use an IDE drive, you
need to enter the drive type into the system’s CMOS setup
table. Then run FDISK and FORMAT provided with DOS.
Warning:
Do not run FDISK and FORMAT programs on a drive that
has already been formatted or you will lose all programs
and data stored on the drive.

G586SP/G586SP AIO
Installing Expansion Cards
The system board is equipped with four PCI and three ISA
slots. All four PCI slots are bus masters. One PCI slot and
one ISA slot are shared. You can only install one card in one
or the other of the shared slots at a time; you cannot install
devices in both slots.
Due to the size of the CPU with its accompanying heatsink/
fan component, the length of the add-in cards in PCI slots 1,
2, and 3 is limited to 205mm (measured from the bracket of
the card).
The length of the add-in card in PCI slot 4 is limited to
205mm only if its components protrude more than 5mm from
the components and/or solder side of the card. The locations
of the expansion slots are shown on page 8.
Note:
The BIOS needs to be configured for the PCI add-on cards
installed in the PCI slots. Refer to the “PCI Configuration
Setup” chapter presented in the “Initial Setup Program”
section of the manual.
Software Driver Installation
To install the IDE and/or VGA driver and utilities supported by
the system board, please refer to the "Readme" files provided in
the provided diskettes.

Enter your choice, and press <Enter> to accept the parameters or press <Esc> to abort. The parameters of the hard
disk will be displayed in the Standard CMOS Setup.
Hard Drive Mode
The board supports three HDD modes: Normal, LBA and
Large. If your hard disk drive does not support LBA mode,
the “LBA” option will not be displayed. If your HDD has
1024 or fewer cylinders, the “Large” option will not be
displayed.
Normal Mode
The Normal mode is the generic access mode in which
neither the BIOS nor the IDE controller will make any
transformations during hard-drive access.
The maximum number of cylinders, heads and sectors for
Normal mode are 1024, 16 and 63, respectively.
no.Cylinders(1024)
x no. Heads( 16)
x no.Sectors( 63)
x bytes per sector ( 512)
44
528 Megabyte
If you set your HDD to Normal mode, the maximum accessible HDD size will be 528 Megabytes even though its
physical size may be greater than that.
LBA (Logical Block Addressing) Mode
The LBA mode is a new HDD accessing method to overcome the 528 megabyte limitation. The number of cylinders,
heads and sectors shown on the screen may not be the actual
number for the HDD.
Page 45
G586SP/G586SP AIO
During the HDD accessing, the IDE controller will transform
the logical address described by the sector, head and cylinder
number into its own physical address inside the HDD.
The maximum HDD size supported by the LBA mode is 8.4
Gigabytes. It is obtained by the following formula.
no.Cylinders(1024)
x no. Heads( 225)
x no.Sectors( 63)
x bytes per sector ( 512)
8.4 Gigabyte
Large Mode
The Large mode is the extended HDD access mode supported by the G586SP AIO system board. Some IDE HDDs
have more than 1024 cylinders without LBA support (in
some cases, you may not want the LBA mode). The system
board provides another alternative to support these kinds of
HDD.
The BIOS tells the operating system that the number of
cylinders is 1/2 of actual and that the number of heads is
double the actual. During the disk access, the reverse conversion is done by the INT13h routine.
Example of Large mode:
CYLS. HEADS SECTORS MODE
11201659NORMAL
5603259LARGE
Maximum HDD size:
no.Cylinders(1024)
x no. Heads( 32)
x no.Sectors( 63)
x bytes per sector ( 512)
1 Gigabyte
45
Page 46
G586SP/G586SP AIO
Note:
To support LBA or Large mode, address translation software
is included in the Award BIOS HDD Service Routine
(INT13h). If you are running an operating system that
bypasses the BIOS Int13 Service Routine, LBA and Large
Mode may fail.
HDD Low Level Format
This option will format, set the interleave mode and do a
media analysis of your hard drives. Highlight this option and
press <Enter>. A screen similar to the one below will appear.
