Special features

Your mainboard is available in different configuration levels. Depending on the configuration, your
mainboard is equipped with or supports the features described in the following.

Silent Fan

A micro controller developed by Fujitsu Siemens Computers monitors and controls the
fans in the PC and thus prevents any unnecessary noise annoyance. Should the
processor become in spite of full turning ventilator too hot, then the processor clock
rate will automatically be reduced so that the system continues to run stably. The
microcontroller operates independently of the operating system and the processor.
Therefore the micro controller protects your PC reliably against overheating and loss
of data or even damage of the processor.

In addition, the microcontroller offers monitoring of, for example, system voltages
(12 V, 5 V, CMOS), opening of the case and a watchdog function.

6 - English A26361-D1627-Z121-1-6319

List of features

Silent Fan LT

A controller regulates the processor fan in the PC and thus prevents unnecessary
noise pollution. The controller operates independently of the operating system and the
processor.

SystemGuard

With SystemGuard the function of the onboard Silent Fan Controller is displayed.
SystemGuard indicates temperature, rotational speed of the fan and voltages, which

are measured by the Silent Fan Controller. Moreover the software offers various
setting options to optimise the noise level. SystemGuard is a freeware-tool, which is
available on the internet.

Silent Drives

Hard disks and optical drives (CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD etc.) are besides the fans
some of the greatest sources of noise in a PC. The BIOS-Setup can be used to switch
these drives into a quieter mode.

Recovery BIOS

If an error occurs during a BIOS update (e. g. due to a power failure), the system
BIOS will be destroyed. All Fujitsu Siemens Computers mainboards are equipped with
a recovery BIOS. With it a destroyed BIOS can easily be restored. Exact instructions
are provided in the chapter "BIOS Recovery - Recovering System BIOS".

DeskUpdate

DeskUpdate enables simple, automatic driver installation. The function is available
both on the CD "Drivers & Utilities" and on the Internet.

Multi Boot

The BIOS of the Fujitsu Siemens Computers mainboards enables booting from all
types mass storage devices. In addition to IDE hard disks, this also includes optical
drives, such as CD-ROM, DVD and external drives that can be connected to USB or
FireWire.

Harddisk Password

A password assignment for the hard disk is only possible with suitable hard disks and
prevents unauthorised access to the stored data.

For up to four hard disks one password each can be assigned in the BIOS-Setup (e. g.
for up to four different users).

Additional information is contained in the "BIOS Setup" manual.

A26361-D1627-Z121-1-6319 English - 7

Brief instructions on installing mainboard

USB Security

USB Security is a BIOS function that offers protection against unauthorised access
regardless of the operating system used. If USB Security is activated, the system can
only be started, if the MemoryBird of Fujitsu Siemens Computers is connected to one
of the existing USB-ports.

Brief instructions on installing mainboard

If you have purchased a separate mainboard, you can install the mainboard in your system in
accordance with the following brief instructions.

The activities described here assume a basic knowledge of PCs and cannot be carried out by a
layperson. If you are not sure whether you have the necessary specialised knowledge, then leave
this work to an expert.

The illustrations of the system show examples of possible cases.

Prior to installation

► Please take note of the safety information in the "Important notes" chapter.

► Check whether the processor, memory modules and power supply are suitable for this

mainboard:

− processor (see "Replacing processor" chapter).

− memory modules (see "Upgrading main memory" chapter).

− power supply (see "Electrical Properties" chapter).

► Make sure the current requirement of the fans (processor, case) does not exceed the loadability

of the fan connections (see chapter entitled "Electrical Properties").

► First only install the components absolutely necessary (graphics card, processor and heat sink,

one memory module) and only connect the required connections (power supply unit, case
connections such as ATX on/off switch, hard disk or floppy disk drive). You should not install
additional cards and devices until this minimum configuration successfully boots (see chapter
entitled "Add-on modules / Upgrading").

Brief instructions on installing mainboard

Installation

► Equip the mainboard with the processor, heat sink and memory modules before installation if

possible. Further information can be found in "Replacing processor" chapter.

► Open the casing as described in the

operating manual.

► Should no suitable connection field be

provided in the case, then you must
install the connection field (1) provided.

Ensure the plate is aligned properly so that
the connections are suitable for the
mainboard later.

► Set the mainboard on the edge on

which the connection field is located (2)
and then insert the board in the
case (3).

Make sure that spacers in the housing are
only mounted at points at which there are
mounting holes in the mainboard.

► Fasten the mainboard with the screws.

► Connect the plugs for the power supply, control panel and drives to the corresponding

connections on the mainboard.

Driver installation

► Install the drivers for the chipset. You may find the driver on the "Drivers & Utilities" CD. Please

refer to chapter "Drivers" for a description of installing drivers.

2, 4 or 6-channel audio mode via analogue audio channels

Besides an S/PDIF output the mainboard supports a 6-channel audio output via the analogue audio
channels (2 Front, 2 Rear, 1 Centre and 1 Subwoofer channel). This makes it possible to connect 4
or 6 loudspeakers, and therefore to achieve a better surround-sound effect.

Drivers

A corresponding driver must be installed for the 2, 4 or 6-channel audio mode. If the drive is not
installed yet, proceed as described in the chapter "Add-on modules / Upgrading", in the section
"Drivers".

Connecting loudspeakers

The number of loudspeakers connected should match the number of audio channels you select in
the driver software.

Hard disk connection

An ultra ATA/66 or ultra ATA/100 hard disk must be connected with a cable especially designed for
the ultra ATA/66 or ultra ATA/100 mode.

► Connect the end of the cable marked with blue to the mainboard.

A serial ATA/150 hard disk must be connected with a serial ATA cable.

► Connect the cable to the hard disk and to the connector on the mainboard.

If you have connected one or two hard disks to a serial ATA (one hard disk is possible per serial
ATA connection), you must configure the respective settings in the BIOS Setup (also see following
table).

BIOS supports a maximum of four IDE/ATA drives. In some new operating systems two additional
drives can be used, but not as boot drives.
Depending on the settings in BIOS the following configurations are possible:

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 to the heat sink, then use it. Otherwise you must
apply a very thin layer of heat conducting paste.

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

Please note that, depending on the heat sink used, different heat sink mounts are required on the
mainboard.

If a counter-plate is mounted on the underside of the mainboard for reinforcement, no

i

heat sinks of the type "Intel Boxed" may be used. Otherwise the retaining clips of the heat
sink will be damaged.

When using an "Intel Boxed" heat sink, the mainboard must be converted. This
conversion set is either included with the mainboard or is available separately.

If no counter-plate is mounted, you can use both "Intel Boxed" heat sinks 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 behaviour is specified by Intel.

► Depending on the configuration variant, you

must pull a protective foil off the heat sink or
coat the heat sink with heat conducting paste
before fitting it.

► Depending on the processor variant, clips

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

► When you have mounted the optional fan,

connect the fan plug to the corresponding
connection on the mainboard.

Replacing the lithium battery

In order to permanently save the system information, a lithium battery is installed to provide the
CMOS-memory with a current. A corresponding error message notifies the user when the charge is
too low or the battery is empty. The lithium battery must then be replaced.

Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion!

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

The lithium battery may be replaced only with an identical battery or with a type
recommended by the manufacturer.

Do not throw lithium batteries into the household waste. They must be disposed of in
accordance with local regulations concerning special waste.

Make sure that you insert the battery the right way round. The plus pole must be on the

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 functions can also be
integrated.

A BIOS update should always 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 available on the Internet at www.fujitsu-siemens.de/mainboards.

How does a BIOS update work?

You have two ways of doing this:

1. BIOS update under DOS with bootable BIOS update floppy disk - brief description

► Download the update file from out website to your PC.

► Insert an empty floppy disk (1.44 MB).

► Run the update file (e.g.

► A bootable update floppy disk is created. Leave this floppy disk in the drive.

► Restart the PC.

► Follow the instructions on screen.

Detailed information on the BIOS update under DOS is provided in the manual on "BIOS

chapter "Settings with switches and jumpers").

► Close the casing as described in the operating manual.

► Insert a BIOS update floppy disk and start the PC.

► Note the signals issued from the loudspeaker. You have successfully restored the BIOS if you

hear the signal sequence "short-short- long- long- long" and the diskette access indicator is
dark. This can take a few minutes.

► Open the casing as described in the operating manual.

Microcode Update

What is a microcode update?

As there are no drivers for processors, Intel offers the possibility from the P6 family (Pentium Pro)
on to update the command set (microcode) of the processor. This enables minor errors to be
corrected and the performance to be increased.

To guarantee the best possible performance and error-free operation, Intel recommends updating
the microcode for every new processor. Intel refers to the use of the processor without microcode
updates as operation outside the specifications.

Safety for processor on Fujitsu Siemens Computers mainboards

If the processor uses an old or incorrect microcode, 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 installed processor. The output error
message is

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

This message appears until the microcode update has been carried out. If the computer is
nevertheless operated without a microcode update, error-free operation is not ensured.

When should a microcode update be carried out?

A microcode update should be carried out after the installation of a new processor.

In contrast to the BIOS update, only an updated version of the processor command set is stored.
The system BIOS remains unaffected by this.
