Important notes

With the mainboard inst al l ed 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 to avoid interference.

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

!

Incorrect replacem ent of the lithium battery 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 very hot during operation. Ens ure 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 directive
89/336/EEC "Electromagnetic compatibility".

Compliance was tes t ed i n a typical PC confi guration.
When installing the board, refer to the specific installation informat ion 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 t hat extension boards are sl otted in
straight, without damaging components or conductors on the mainboard, or any ot her 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 entring pins etc.) when you repl ace the
mainboard or components on it, for example memory m odul es or processors.

Never use sharp object s (screwdrivers) for l everage.

Boards with elect rostatic sensitive devices (E S D) are i dentifiable by the label s hown.
When you handle boards fitt ed wi t h E SDs, you must, under al l circumstances ,

observe the following:

• You must always discharge stat i c build up (e.g. by touchi ng a grounded obj ect)

before working.

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

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

boards containing ESDs.

• Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.

• Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.

Special technical features - special features

Your mainboard is availabl e i n di fferent configuration l evels. Depending on the confi guration, your
mainboard is equipped with or s upport s the features desc ri bed i n t he following.

Thermal Management and System Monitoring

A microcontroll er developed by Fujitsu Siem ens Computers reliably prot ects your PC
against damage caused by overheating. Overheating can l ead to the data loss or
processor damage. An i ngeni ous fan control and monitoring system prevents
unnecessary nois e. Should the processor nevert hel ess become too hot at t he
maximum fan speed, then the proc essor clock rate will automat ically be reduced so
that the system continues to run stably. I n addi tion, the microcont rol l er offers
monitoring of, for example, system voltages (12 V, 5 V, CMOS), opening of the case
and a watchdog function.
The microcontroller operat es independently of the operati ng system and the
processor. All values are displayed wit h DeskView, DeskViewOEM or SystemGuard.

Harddisk Silent Mode and Harddisk Password

You can reduce the noise resulting when the hard disk is accessed to a barely
perceptible level. The resulting power decrease is approx. 10-20% depending on the
hard disk.

A password assignm ent for the hard disk is only possible with suitable, newer hard
disks and prevents unauthorised acc ess to the stored data.

Silent Mode and Harddisk Password are activated in the BIOS Setup. A ddi tional
information is c ontained in the "BIOS Setup" manual.

4 - English A26361-D1534-Z120-2-7419

Logo Boot

A customer-specific logo can be dis pl ayed during system booting. The logo is loaded
using the LogoFlash tool. The logo can have a s i ze of 640 x 480 pixels wit h 16
colours. The tool is provided on t he CD "Drivers & Utilities" or "Drivers & Ut ilit ies
enhanced" or is availabl e on the Internet at http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com.

DeskView / DeskViewOEM

The network-capable manageability sof tware DeskView/DeskViewOEM* mainly
consists of three modules:

• DeskInfo shows the most important device data of the PCs i n a network (local

and/or on an administrator P C).

• DeskAlert monitors t he operability of all major components and triggers alarms if

necessary depending on the m ainboard variant.

• DeskFlash c arri es out a BIOS update under Windows.

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 Comput ers mainboards are equipped with a
recovery BIOS. With it a destroyed B IOS can easily be restored. Exact instructions
are provided in the chapter "BIOS Recovery - Rec overing System BIOS".

Mainboard D1534

IA-PC

Instantly Available PC ensures fast availability of t he PC from an energy-saving mode.

Within just a few seconds the PC is i n exactly the sam e state it was in when it was
switched off without time-consumi ng booting. Depending on the operating system, the
PC can be switched into an energy-saving mode with appl i cations open by pressi ng
the ON/OFF switch.

Mounting heat sink

Be sure to use heat conducting material between t he processor and the heat sink . If a heat
conducting pad (rubber-like foil) is already applied t o the heat sink, then us e i t . 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 conducti ng paste before you remount it.

Please note that, dependi ng on t he 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 t he type "Intel Boxed" may be used. Otherwise the retaining clips of the heat
sink will be damaged.

When using an "Intel Box ed" heat sink, the mai nboard 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 s i 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 protective foil off the heat sink or
coat the heat sink with heat conducting paste
before fitting it .

Ê Depending on the processor variant, cli ps

may also be supplied for 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.

PCI bus interrupts - Selecting correct PCI slot

To achieve optimum stability , perf ormance and compatibility, avoid the multiple use of ISA

i

IRQs or PCI IRQ Lines (I RQ sharing). Should IRQ sharing be unav oi dabl e, then all
involved devices and their drivers must support IRQ sharing.

PCI IRQ Lines connec t AGP slots, P CI slots and onboard components t o the interrupt controller.
PCI IRQ Lines are permanentl y wired on the mainboard.

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

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 battery must then be replaced.

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

!

The lithium battery hol der exists in diff erent designs that func t i on i n the same way.

The lithium battery m ay be replaced only with an ident i cal 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 concerni ng 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

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 avai l able on the Internet at www.fujitsu-siemens.com.

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 - brief 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 DeskFlash utility. DeskFlash
is located on the "Drivers & Ut ilit ies" CD (from CD version 2001.05 with DeskView
Readme file in the subfolder DeskFlash you will find the installation instructions for DeskFlash. Further
information on DeskFlash is provided in t he DeskView.PDF fi l e and in the DeskView

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 s et (microcode) of the processor. This enables mi nor errors to be
corrected and the performance to be increased.

To guarantee the best poss i bl e perf ormance and error-free operation, Intel recommends updating
the microcode regularly. Intel refers to the use of the process or wi t hout regular microcode updates
as operation outside the specifications.

Safety for processor on Fujitsu Siemens Computers mainboards

If the process or uses an old or incorrect mi 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 installed 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 in the following cases:

• Following installation of a new processor

• When a new microcode update is iss ued.

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 - bri ef descri pti 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 process or i s not recognised, you also require the microcode update t ool for

i

processors of t he P6 family.

Drivers

Only when no drivers are ins t al l ed on your system, or you want to update these, proceed as follows :

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 i n t he main directory of

the CD.

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