Important notes

Important notes

With the mainboard installed you must open the system to access the mainboard. How to dismantle
and reassemble the system is described in the operating manual accompanying the system.

Connecting cables f or peri pheral s must be adequately s hi el ded t o avoid interference.

Observe the safety notes in the operating manual of your system.

!

Incorrect replacem ent of the lithium batt ery may lead to a risk of explosion. It is therefore
essential to obs erve the instructions in the "Add-on modules / Upgradi ng" - " Repl acing
the lithium battery" section.

Components can become v ery hot during operation. Ensure you do not touch
components when making extensions to the m ai nboard. There i s a danger of burns!

The shipped version of t hi s board complies with t he requi rem ents of the EEC direct ive
89/336/EEC "Electromagnetic compatibility".

Compliance was tested in a typical PC c onfiguration.
When installing the board, refer to the s pecific installation information in the manual for

the receiving device.

The warranty is invalidated if the system is damaged during the installation or

i

replacement of expans i ons. Information on whic h expansions you can use i s available
from your sales out l et or the customer service centre.

Information about boards

To prevent damage to the mainboard, the components and conductors on it, please take great care
when you insert or remove boards . Take great care to ensure that extension boards are sl ot ted in
straight, without damaging components or conductors on the mainboard, or any other components,
for example EMI spring contacts.

Remove the plug from the mains outlet so that system and mainboard are totally disconnected from
the mains voltage.

Be careful with the l ocking mechanisms (catches, c ent ri ng pi ns etc.) when you replace the
mainboard or components on it , for example memory m odul es or processors.

Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for l everage.

Boards with electrostatic sensi tive devices (E S D) are i dentifiable by the label s hown.
When you handle boards fitt ed wi t h ESDs, you must , under all circumst ances,

observe the following:

• You must alway s discharge stati c build up (e.g. by touchi ng a grounded obj ect)

before working.

• The equipment and tools you use must be free of s tatic charges.

• Remove the power plug from the mains supply before i nserting or removing

boards containing ESDs.

• Always hold boards with ESDs by thei r edges.

• Never touch pins or conductors on boards fit ted with ESDs.

Replacing processor

Mounting heat sink

Be sure to use heat conducting material between the processor and the heat sink. If a heat
conducting pad (rubber-like foil) is already applied t o t he heat sink, then use i t . Otherwise you must
apply a very thin layer of heat conducting pas te.

Heat conducting pads can only be used once. If you remove the heat sink, you must clean it and
apply new heat conducti ng paste before you remount it.

Please note that, dependi ng on the heat sink used, di f ferent heat sink mounts are required on the
mainboard.

If a counter-plate is mounted on the underside of the m ai nboard for reinforcement, no

i

heat sinks of t he type "Intel Boxed" may be used. Otherwise t he ret ai ni ng clips of the heat
sink will be damaged.

When using an "Intel Box ed" heat sink, the mainboard m ust be converted. This
conversion set i s either included with t he m ai nboard or i s available separately .

If no counter-plate is mounted, you can use bot h " Intel Boxed" heat si nks and standard
heat sinks. If you use the "Intel Boxed" heat sink, the mainboard will bend due to the high
pressure of the retaining clips. This behavi our i s specified by I nt el .

Ê Depending on the configuration variant, you

must pull a protect ive foil off the heat sink or
coat the heat sink wi th heat conducting past e
before fitting it .

Ê Depending on the processor variant, cli ps

may also be supplied f or mounting the heat
sink that fix it in place.

Ê When you have mounted the optional fan,

connect the fan plug t o the corresponding
connection on the mainboard.

Upgrading AGP screen controllers

Technical data:

The AGP slot support s the modes 4x/8x with 32 bits and 66 MHz. Only 1.5 V AGP screen
controllers are support ed.

Some older 3.3 V AGP screen controllers are coded l i ke 1.5 V AGP screen controllers.

i

The installation of such 3.3 V AGP screen controllers can cause serious damage to the
mainboard and the AGP sc reen controller.

5 V and 3.3 V supply v ol tage

3.3 V auxiliary voltage

PCI bus interrupts - Selecting correct PCI slot

To achieve optimum stability, performance and compatibility, avoid the multiple use of

i

ISA IRQs or PCI IRQ Lines (IRQ sharing). Should IRQ sharing be unavoidable, then all
involved devices and their drivers must support IRQ sharing.

PCI IRQ Lines connect AGP slots, PCI slots and onboard components to the interrupt controller.
PCI IRQ Lines are permanently wired on the mainboard.

Which ISA IRQs are assigned to the PCI IRQ Lines is normally automatically specified by the BIOS
(see description in "BIOS Setup").

16 - English A26361-D1555-Z120-1-6319

Adding PCI cards

Monofunctional expansions cards:

Standard AGP and PCI expansion cards require a maximum of one interrupt, which is called the PCI

Multifunctional expansion cards or expansion cards with integrated PCI-PCI bridge:

These expansion cards require up to four PCI interrupts: INT A, INT B, INT C, INT D. How many and
which of these interrupts are used is specified in the documentation provided with the card.

The assignment of the PCI interrupts to the PCI IRQ Lines is shown in the following table:

Use the first P CI slots that have a s i ngl e PCI IRQ Line (no IRQ sharing). If you must use another
PCI slot with I RQ sharing, check whether t he expansion card properly support s IRQ sharing with the
other devices on this PCI IRQ Line. The drivers of all cards and components on this PCI IRQ Line
must also support I RQ sharing.

Adding PCI cards

Replacing the lithium battery

In order to permanently s ave the system information, a lithium battery is installed to provide the
CMOS-memory with a c urrent. A corresponding error mes sage notifies the user when the charge is
too low or the battery is empty. The lithi um bat tery must then be replac ed.

Incorrect replacem ent of the lithium batt ery may lead to a risk of explosion!

!

The lithium battery holder exists in dif ferent designs that function in the same way.

The lithium battery m ay be replaced only with an identical battery or with a t ype
recommended by the manufacturer.

Do not throw lithium batteries into the household waste. They must be disposed of in
accordance with loc al regul ations concerning special waste.

Make sure that you i nsert the battery the ri ght way round. The plus pole must be on the
top!

BIOS update

BIOS update

When should a BIOS update be carried out?

Fujitsu Siemens Computers makes new BIOS versions available to ensure compatibility to new
operating systems, new software or new hardware. In addition, new BIOS funct i ons can also be
integrated.

A BIOS update should al ways also be carried out when a problem exists that cannot be solved with
new drivers or new software.

Where can I obtain BIOS updates?

The BIOS updates are avail abl e on the Internet at www.fujitsu-siemens.de/mainboards.

How does a BIOS update work?

You have two ways of doi ng this:

1. BIOS update under DOS with bootable BIOS update fl oppy di sk - bri ef description

Ê Download the update file from out website to your PC.
Ê Insert an empty floppy disk (1.44 MB).
Ê Run the update file (e.g. 1522103.EXE).
Ê A bootable update floppy disk is created. Leave this fl oppy disk in the drive.
Ê Restart the PC.
Ê Follow the instructions on screen.

Detailed information on t he BIOS update under DOS is provi ded i n the manual on "BIOS

i

2. BIOS update under Windows with DeskFlash utility

A BIOS update can also be carried out directly under Windows with the Des kFlash utility. DeskF lash
is located on the "Drivers & Utilities" CD (from CD version 2001.05 wit h DeskView

Microcode Update

What is a microcode update?

Da es für Prozessoren k eine Treiber gibt , bietet Intel ab den Prozes soren der P6-Familie (Pentium
Pro) die Möglichkeit, den Befehlssatz (Microcode) des Proz essors zu aktualisieren. This enables
minor errors to be correct ed and the performance to be increas ed.

To guarantee the best possi bl e performance and error-free operation, Intel recommends updating
the microcode for ev ery new processor. Int el refers to the use of the processor without microcode
updates as operation outs i de the specificati ons.

20 - English A26361-D1555-Z120-1-6319

Drivers

Safety for processor on Fujitsu Siemens Computers mainboards

If the processor uses an old or incorrect m i crocode, error-free operation cannot be ensured. Fujitsu
Siemens Computers has therefore implemented a function on its mainboards that interrupts the
booting process if no suitable microcode is available for the inst al l ed processor. The output error
message is

Patch for installed CPU not loaded. Please run the bios flash update
diskette.

This message appears unt i l the microcode update has been c arri ed out . If the computer is
nevertheless operated wi thout a microcode update, error-free operation is not ensured.

When should a microcode update be carried out?

A microcode update s houl d be carried out after the inst al l ation of a new processor.
In contrast to the BIOS update, only an updat ed version of the processor command set is stored.

The system BIOS remains unaffected by this.

Microcode update under DOS with bootable microcode update floppy disk - brief descri p ti on

Ê Download the update file from out website to your PC.
Ê Insert an empty floppy disk (1.44 MB).
Ê Run the update file under DOS (e.g. 1495101.EXE).
Ê A bootable update floppy disk is created. Leave the floppy di sk in the drive.
Ê Restart the PC.
Ê Follow the instructions on screen.

To determine whether the lates t microcode update has been loaded, the so-called Patch-ID of the
processor can be read out.

Ê Press the [F1] key in the BIOS Setup.

The entry CPU / Patch ID is shown on the displayed i nformation page.
A list with t he current processors and t he rel ated Patch-IDs is available on the Internet..

If the processor i s not recognised, you al so require the microcode update t ool for

i

processors of t he P 6 family.

Drivers

Only when no drivers are installed on your system, or you want to update these, proceed as f ol l ows:

Ê Insert the CD "Drivers & Utilities Collection" into the CD ROM drive.
Ê If the CD does not start automati cally, run the START.EXE programme in the main directory of

the CD.

Ê Select DeskUpdate - Fully automatic installation.
Ê Follow the instructions on screen.
