chapter contains information on the various hardware settings on your
motherboard.

To set up your computer, you should follow these installation steps:

n Step 1 - Set system jumpers/switches
n Step 2 - Install memory modules
n Step 3 - Install the CPU
n Step 4 - Install expansion cards
n Step 5 - Connect devices
n Step 6 - Set up BIOS feature
n Step 7 - Set up software utilities

CAUTION: If you use an electric drill to install this motherboard on

Chapter 2

BIOS Setup

The motherboard comes with an Award BIOS chip that contains the ROM
Setup information of your system. This chip serves as an interface between
the processor and the rest of the motherboard's components. This chapter
explains the information contained in the Setup program and tells you how
to modify the settings according to your system configuration.

CMOS Setup Utility

A Setup program, built into the system BIOS, is stored in the CMOS
RAM. This Setup utility program allows changes to the motherboard
configuration settings. It is executed when the user changes system
configuration; user changes system backup battery; or the system detects a
configuration error and asks the user to run the Setup program. Use the
arrow keys to select and press Enter to run the selected program. The F5:

5

KB-6130 Motherboard Manual

Menu in BIOS is a convenient feature for users to refer the board settings
in this BIOS top level menu.

Standard CMOS Setup

The Standard CMOS Setup screen is displayed above. Each item may have
one or more option settings. The system BIOS automatically detects
memory size, thus no changes are necessary. Use the arrow keys to
highlight the item and then use the PgUp or PgDn keys to select the value
you want in each item.

Hard Disk Configurations

TYPE: Select User to fill the remaining fields. Select Auto to
detect the HDD type automatically (recommended).

SIZE: The hard disk size. The unit is Mega Bytes.
CYLS: The cylinder number of the hard disk.
HEAD: The read/write head number of hard disk.
PRECOMP: The cylinder number at which the disk drive changes

the write current.
LANDZ: The cylinder number that the disk drive heads
(read/write) are seated when the disk drive is parked.

6

BIOS Setup

SECTOR: The sector number of each track defined on the hard
disk.
MODE: Select Auto to detect the mode type automatically. If your
hard disk supports the LBA mode, select LBA or Large. However,
if your hard disk cylinder is more than 1024 and does not support
the LBA function, set at Large. Select Normal if your hard disk
supporting cylinders is below 1024.

Floppy 3 Mode Support

This feature allows you to install a 3.5” (1.2MB) NEC 9801 floppy
drive.
The options are: Disabled (Default), Drive A.

Software Turbo Speed

The BIOS supports Software Turbo Speed feature. Instead of pressing the
Turbo Speed Button on the front panel, simply press the Alt, Ctrl, and +
keys at the same time to enable the Turbo Speed feature; and press the Alt,
Ctrl, and - keys at the same time to disable the feature.
